Florio blasted the Patriots for their injury report too. I've been reading his stuff for years. How many of you actually read the other articles that are NON Packers? He's jumped on other teams for this too. Someone in the WI media wrote something about Florio and his mistake on Bigby and that is probably why he spent so much ink on that story. Not to mention things are kind of slow. Speaking slow, I'm sick of the one liners that are for the Packers but regard Brett. He's not a freaking Packer anymore so stop wasting our one line spot on a Free Agent!

Man, I am really getting sick of this labeling. Now because I give my two cents on Florio I'm accused of being a Florio Expert? :sleepy1:


Anyhow, I haven't bought into the everyone hates the Packers theory yet. Except ESPN, but I just hate ESPN all together so ... lol 🙂

Zimmerman suffered a stroke on November 22, 2008, which, so far, has left him unable to walk or to communicate. According to fellow SI writer Peter King's MMQB column, Zimmerman has also recently suffered two other strokes and is undergoing rehab in a New Jersey facility, at this time unable to speak and with right-sided hemiparesis.

Florio blasts everyone. That and digging up youtube clips based on requests during live chats.

There was a badmouthing of Cutler story amongnst the gowing of 5 vikings reports.

I was rather upset until I considered that Florio links to local media.

If he links to Minneapolis reporter Sid Hartman, he really doesn't have a brain.

The Minnesota reporters every year says the team is great and going to the Super Bowl and they never get near it. Florio's site is echoing some of that bad reporting.

You get more truth from the North Korean press than Minneapolis reporters on the vikings. They are rarely critical.

Behold, evidence he is a Vikings fan:

http://archive.profootballtalk.com/4-27-06.htm 

IT'S OFFICIAL -- VIKES' NEW UNIS ARE PUTRID

Our friends at Viking Underground have forwarded to us more shots of the still-to-be-unveiled uniform modifications.

Excuse us for a minute whilst we go barf.

Yours truly was a rabid Vikings fans in the glory days of the 1970s (and, unfortunately, beyond), so we still feel a certain obligation to safeguard the organization and its tradition. That's partially why we were so hard on Mike Tice a/k/a Meathead No. 1 -- and why we now plan to give similar treatment to Fran Foley a/k/a Meathead No. 2.

Thus, we always will call it like we see it with the Vikes, and our position on the new getup is that we prefer never to see it.



I don't really care though. He does report Vikings news more often than others and he absolutely hates Childress.

I have said this before, but I just like to hear myself talk (shoutout to Nick, more material to work with, lol).

The Vikes fans over at P.P.O. say the EXACT same thing about Florio being disgustingly biased.

The only small difference being that they are all convinced he is a closet Packer fan, and that Florio beats on the Vikings every chance he gets.

My personal feeling is that Florio is an equal-opportunity asshole, and seeks provocation over any kind of bias or agenda. If he can piss off more people than less, he will go that route over another.

I like his sense of humor, sometimes he is too stupid to know when he is crossing some lines, taste-wise, but that doesn't make him generally stupid or biased, just human.

He gets major kudos from me for equating everything in life to Seinfeld episodes...he has that part of the big picture right, imo.

The dude is running an online rumor mill that just about everyone reads. Why is that? The rumors...sure. 99% of his shit is really quite accurate...the delivery of the shit he writes...99% of why 99% of people read it, even though they themselves might not know it.

Bookmark AP sports wire, you'll get just as much, if not more, but I dare you not to fall asleep reading it.

I have a feeling Florio will respond to this thread.

I think the guy reads everything there is on the web.

Zero2Cool (4m) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.
Zero2Cool (11m) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.
Mucky Tundra (1h) : Kanata, seek help! lol
beast (3h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status
Zero2Cool (3h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : That was terrible.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.
beast (4h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent
beast (4h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime
beast (4h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing
Zero2Cool (4h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is
Zero2Cool (5h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true
beast (5h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management
wpr (7h) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
Mucky Tundra (15h) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago
beast (16h) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years
Zero2Cool (22h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.
packerfanoutwest (22h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it
beast (23h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done
Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
