Ya know, I think everyone is right.

Let's change for the sake of changing... Fuck'em. Boot Crosby.

He isn't up to our standards. let him go.

Who cares if he is the best available. It simply isnt good enough.

I hear Folk is available....

By the way, why aren't we still in the Fire McCarthy mode? Shit, let boot him too. Three weeks should be long enough to change everyrthying, right?

Oh yea, Thompson too. They're together. Off you go Thompson!

Let's face it. If we don't win the Superbowl then it is not good enough and heads have to roll!!!

Forget the shot bartender, I'll take the IV..

and how the hell do you know Crosby is the better then all the other available kickers?

I just dont want this to end up like a Frost situation where we stick with him too long whenever theres a Jeremy Kapinos out there who can at least kick the ball more then 40 yards and have some hangtime.

Exactly, the Redskins are already in their preseason for next year. And don't think for a moment that one kick is why he was booted.

Because he is employed. If the Packers felt there was someone better then that kicker would be in Green Bay

Bingo!!!! Why were we in the Frost situation to begin with? Because we made a knee jerk reaction to jon Ryan having a few tough weeks. Then we were stuck with Frost while Ryan went to Seattle and has done very well.

2008
Ryan (SEA) 8th distance net 7
Frost (GNB 25th Distance Net 24th

2009
Ryan (SEA) 4th Distance Net 10th
Kapinos GNB) 17th Distance Net LAST! (31st)

Wanna go down this road with Crosby too?

Trip you know to say give him more time is just ridiculous right?

4 or 5 weeks and the kicker or the kickers coach can't figure out why he is missing a foot to the right? Its not like there are other people that he has to throw to,or rely on other people to open a running lane, or to shed blockers

His job is only to KICK, and if he cant fix that in 5 weeks, then maybe he isnt that good?

Not saying it cant be fixed, but my god, why can't it be figured out after the 2nd week?

So maybe the problem isn't our kicker -- maybe it's our coaches. Crosby flourished under the tutelage of his college kicking coach. It's currently offseason for college football -- bring him in as an independent consultant for a few weeks. Our special teams coaches told us they were going to fix Crosby's mechanics. They took him from the highest-scoring person in the league to a nervous wreck. My finger points at them.

I changed my mind.

I'm going to stay drunk instead of Mason.

Can it get any worse?

I'm not sure why you keep bringing up Frost. We HAD a good punter with Jon Ryan. Crosby is NOT a good kicker.

Who cares if his FG percentage was low in 2007. He was the league's leading scorer, for heaven's sake.

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (7h) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (12h) : Merry Christmas!

beast (21h) : 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

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
