After reading what McGinn said again and giving it more thought, I think it's important to understand that he is talking about effort. He's calling out Harrell for being lazy. He's not calling him out for being a bad football player. I hate to compare the two, but Randy Moss is lazy. Great football player though. Just sayin'

Anyways, I think what McGinn is getting at is that for someone who hasn't played football the last few years, he sure doesn't seem to be playing like his butt is on the line. Where as someone like Mike Neal is, even though he's a lock to make the roster.

I don't think this is about production. It's about effort. I can't think of the word as I'm typing this. I guess people want to see Harrell give the effort that someone would give if their job depends on it. Perhaps, he's not giving that. Personally, I think he'll make this team if he's healthy, so we'll see.

90 degrees with 70% humidity in WI in Feb? Then count Al Gore as agreeing with me that Justin will be in the Pro Bowl.

Al Gore and R.P. replacing Mark Murphy and Ted Thompson. Interesting.

Bring in Trom as Director Of Player Personnel.

IronMan as the Defensive Coordinator.

You all fill out the rest of the staff....

D. Coordinator?

Head Coach?

Special Teams Coach?

Linebacker Coach?

Etc. Etc.

Since when does Mike McCarthy "call out" every player who's not living up to expectations? That's something he only does a few times a year, and like many coaches, he does it mainly for motivational purposes. I remember him calling out Chad Clifton a few years ago. Clifton was one of our better O-linemen, but his level of play was not quite where it needed to be, and McCarthy called him out.

McCarthy calling out Wynn indicates that he thinks Wynn is mentally tough enough to respond by elevating his play, which is apparently what has happened. But to call out Harrell would just put more of a spotlight on a player who has been an embarrassment to the organization. I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for it to happen. If Harrell is cut, he will be cut in the most low-key fashion possible.

Greg, if what you say about McCarthy's motives are true, what are we to think of his constant praise of Mason Crosby? I sure hope it's not to stroke a fragile ego, because we really could use a mentally tough Crosby through this season.

They should have done that 2 yeas ago. They can't do it because they cant admit they failed. And cutting this worthless bum means they wasted a first round pick and a lot of money. It's sounds like pride and arrogance.

I wouldn't say those are praising words. More so, excuses of his own denial. lol


Although, I will say this in Crosby's defense. Kicking is difficult when the holder is not consistent. Even if the ball is held in a fashion you do not like, if it is consistent, you can make changes, but if the ball is held differently 3 times out of 5, that will effect your kicking.

I think Crosby can be a good kicker, not great, but good. IF they'd let him kick how he's most comfortable and get a holder who's consistent. He has the leg strength.

Pride, not cutting high draft picks. Wow...logic, its priceless sometimes.

End of camp. He needs to impress. IM Dave's photo looks alarmingly familiar.

End of camp. That's what he should get. No more.
