[QUOTE="IPBprez, post: 6716, member: 51"] Gravedigger played for the Packers for eleven years... and is to be remembered as a Star, along with all the other greats... BUT - Sherman unceremoniously fired GB, without warning in what quite a few look at as being a very bad move... They could have.. done the same for GB, as they've just done for Jackson - (why not fire him, too? Same medical coniditon, right?) To not see the real worth of Gravedigger gives me pause to wonder what you think would be considered the better players in GB? To dismiss Gravedigger as they did, was dis-respectful across the board... and is to me something TT is addressing as far as Sherman is concerned. After the 1997 SuperBowl (Denver) GB did have a weight problem which he over came - and he also played with a torn bicep ALL year... just about anyone else would have sat down for the Season... including the both of us. [The reason we lost the chance at back-to-back Superbowls was because Holmgren wouldn't use Dorsey Levens in the 2nd half, like we did in the first - that's why we lost to Denver] To allow Jackson the "oil-change" and not GB, was a wrong move. If TT had been here when Sherman totally surprised GB with the [i]You're fired[/i] tactic - Sherman might not even be here right now.... total lack of decent behavior IMHO. Sherman was wrong then and wrong on several other points (BJ Sander?) along the way - he doesn't get a free pass on Gravedigger! [/QUOTE]
