In situations like these, when there is a flurry of conflicting rumors flying hither and yon, I always assume that organizations are deliberately engaging in aggressive "canary trap " (also known as "barium meal test") campaigns to test various channels for leaks. It's certainly what I would do. I can't think of a more efficient way of determining whom you can trust and who's got the wagging tongue.

Wilde said on his radio show...I'm listening to the pod right now... Wilde said what Bob wrote, today, about MM walking away if Ball is hired is something he'd heard before and knew of personally, but just didn't feel he had the source to write it cold like Bob thinks he does. So, if anyone tells you this is all fabricated because it's Bob saying it. NO. Never has been.

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."

I CALLED IT! Evil Conspiracy Theories BULLSHIT! You don't like some side, so it must be evil... and this is proof you're biased as hell, and you lack objectivity.

Think it's held this org back from SBs. My BIAS is for SUPERBOWLS. The buddy club is an impediment. You look really foolish posting that. Really foolish.

I hope Mike McCarthy does leave. It makes no sense to clean most of the house but not all of it. Hit the reset button and start over. Keeping McCarthy around makes all of this very awkward. Most GMs would want to choose their own head coach.

And then if they place Ball in the role of GM then you're claiming you'll leave, which made you look like a cry baby... crying about something that hasn't even freaking happened (yet).

You're not perfectly correct nor are you close. The crybaby crack is fair. I own that. What people call conspiracy theories are often truths that the general public can't handle. You can't handle the idea that this could possibly happen. Why? It isn't whack job crazy talk. My error it appears is that this wasn't being done to appease MM, as we're now being told their relationship is the opposite of what we thought.

A lot of us like things nice and steady and this is very upsetting and confusing going through this. Me? I love this. I hate the idea of Russ Ball and or Darren Perry but I love the nature of what is happening. Things are happening and it's really fun following this story. What will win out, here?

I own that I will leave if Russ Ball is the next GM and MM stays. That is the same pile of crap I was served for too long. If Russ comes in, and Belichick were to come here, I may have a change of heart. It would be Bill's show. The lies of Murphy would burn me but if it effected proper change that has been needed I could live with it but would want him gone.

This is completely a whack job crazy talk... the idea of everyone (except McGinn) working on a secretly conspiracy to trick you is 100% freaking nuts... you (nor any of us) are that important to them.

I'm sorry that truth is such an offensive concept. Do you think Ted said he wanted to step down? Do you? You like to hide behind your generalization but can you get down and dirty and discuss?

What are lies? Ted didn't say he wanted to step down. Ted wasn't not there because he hates the media. Ted is not himself and he's also disgraced. He was stripped of a job he loved. You think they're going to trot him out in his condition and after what they did to him? You buy the lie that this was Ted's idea? Ted wanted to be a scout? That's LAUGHABLE. Ever studied body language? Murphy is a liar. The idea was to use Ted to help Russ to get Ted out of the public eye. Why would that be a conspiracy? You want your org being fronted by a guy looking like Ted looked on SNF? That's a really really bad look for the org that they have a guy looking like that running their football team as they sit with their season falling apart and no playoffs.

Murphy doesn't speak well, inspires no one, is not confident and came across way over his head. You think he's a straight shooter who knows exactly how to make the Packers into SB champions? Yikes, if you do.

I've told you before you need to lay off the conspiracy theories I think you're only buying into them more and more. Thinking everyone is lieing to you and trying to get you is what people detaching from reality often experience. This is not a healthy direction my friend.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

wpr (12h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (12h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (13h) : Who? What?

beast (21h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
