I don't either... behind closed doors, but what I do know is that his "clean it up" words are doing little to solve the problem.

That, " We need to address" it isn't working..

Start yanking playing time or roles away from guys that aren't performing.. I would be fine with that.

Or chew they ass on the sideline, sending a clear message to the other 52..

Anything but make an excuse like.. "He hasn't been out there for a while."

+1. You know I have been critical of Ted but it starts with him and goes thru Mike.
THEY WANTED TO HAVE THE YOUNGEST TEAM IN THE NFL. They did so in order to get out of the salary cap crunch. I could understand that but that is as far as they have been able to go in all these years. They just keep picking up young players and don't even try to go for the right mix of veteran and young players.
Now Clifton is far from a youngster but when he screws up all they have is a rookie to fall back on.

I have been thinking.. scary I know.

Maybe I have to adjust my expectations of this club.. I had such high hopes for this season that I refuse to allow it to just take its course.

We are who we are... it worked for the late 70's and 80's for me.. I wonder if I can return to that mode.

Any win is reason to celebrate.

I am beginning to think that GB doesn't really care what kind of a team they put out on the field. They are going to sell out every single game no matter what. GB fans have shown they will buy the Packer merchandise They will tune in to the coaches talk shows. They will continue to support the team no matter how mediocre they are.

I began the season thinking they could go 10-6 or 11-5 and they had a chance to make a run in the post season. Now I am hoping they go 8-8. I can not say I want a new coach or GM at this time as I do not want to start all over yet again but I want to see a change in the way the Packer's management approaches the game before I can expect to see something with the players. And yes despite how lousy they have played I will keep my tickets and suffer thru the apathetic play I have seen.

Tramon should probably start fielding kicks. And Woodson will probably have PR duty. I dont know if we have anyone else who can return punts. Maybe Brett Swain takes some reps at it.

There's no reason to want the youngest team. That's foolish. UNLESS.

College coaches often fail in the pro's because it's harder to get MEN to obey you than KIDS.
... end of story ...
Maybe the coach can't get his message through to men and needs kids who are more impressionable?

Me too. He's a north south returner. I like that. But we'll get to see what Swain can bring to the table.

Shingles is very painful. Try the Chinese herbal formula Suan Zao Ren Tang. Or Suan Zao Ren Wan is the form in teapills. You can also try colloidal silver. There's some good essential oils too.

He has my deepest condolences. I had shingles about 15 years ago. Still have small scars. They suck.

As for Lang, he's the guy who should be in there instead of Cliffy.

MM has never held players accountable so if he tried to start now it probably wouldn't be very effective.

As I said in the other thread, if you are not doing to bench someone, after they had 4 pre-snap penalties, in a blow out game, then when ARE you going to bench someone? With the score heavily in our favor, that was the perfect opportunity to bench Clifton, and tell the other players this shit won't be tolerated.

And Cheesey you are correct, we do not know what goes on behind closed doors. What we DO know, is that whatever he id doing doesn't work. If all he is doing is chewing players out, then that could be why its not getting fixed.

Yelling/screaming/chewing players out is over rated. After a while players just tune that out.

What DOES work is when you take away their playing time, and or money. Also making them run laps til they puke their guts out is effective as well.

But like I said before, I don't expect this to be fixed as long as MM is here. It is what it is. Already too far gone.

I can just picture practice. As everybody ends for the day. McCarthy gets everybody together and says.

Everybody who committed a penalty sunday has to run 10 laps.

The players all laugh and head to the locker room commenting to each other. Get a load of that guy, whos he think he is.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
