If that's from @espn...I sure don't see it on their twitter. TV? Radio?

It's here:

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/08/24/packers-plan-on-calling-reggie-wayne-after-he-visits-patriots/

This was the tweet that started it all:

Jermichael checks in with his thought:

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

This is one of the reasons you do consider signing Reggie Wayne:

Plus, he's smart and the kind of guy Aaron can trust. With the age of our elder statesman at 25 in RC18... what a presence he would be.

Reggie was hoping to be signed by Pats this AM...well it's afternoon in New England. Hope remains.

sounds like an agent trying to get his guy more money from the team he's visiting with.

Would he rather be there for "revenge" or here? Would he rather play with Brady or Rodgers?

Funny how Reggie Wayne became so relevant so quickly. As MR pointed out...guy caught 13 for over 200 against us a few years ago. I'm sure Ted Thompson and MM remember.

T.Y. Hilton spoke with Reggie last night and RW told him he was definitely playing ONE more season. Has one last shot to win a SB. Who is he going to bet on? Us? or...the reigning SB champions? Does he want to be along for the ride or a major contributor?...that very well could be the deciding factor.

He chose NE.

While I rarely get too much on board with reading what a player has to say, I think Reggie Wayne is a guy you can trust to not oversell himself. I think we're going to regret not adding a veteran like him:

Will be fun to see how he does in New England... if he tears it up over there it's going to be a bitter pill to swallow if we struggle.

PS: Your comments on VanPelt didn't "sound stupid" at all, but 100% spot on! A QB knows exactly how WRs are supposed to do their job and has insight into that a WR turned WR coach might not have

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : The method for measuring first downs in the NFL will switch from chain gangs to camera-based technology in 2025, the league announced.

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : A big step in the right direction. Just put in the college system is very very good.

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : Touchbacks on kickoffs will now bring the ball to the 35-yard line.

beast (31-Mar) : It might of gotten more popular recently, but braiding hair (even men) in certain cultures goes back for centuries.

wpr (29-Mar) : sure is

Zero2Cool (29-Mar) : Monopoly is a rip off of The Landlord's Game

wpr (27-Mar) : 28 days until the draft

earthquake (27-Mar) : Nothing eventful happened, other than it being clear that he was a bengals fan

earthquake (27-Mar) : And we went and hung out with him one afternoon, I must have been 9 or so
