[meant mostly in jest] If I take rodell330's persistent negativity too seriously it can be annoying but at this point it just makes me laugh or feel sorry for him. The Packers have just locked up the best QB in the league for the next 7 seasons at a reasonable (less than $19M/year) cost per NFL standards. So every Packers fan celebrates, right? Not rodell330. No, he's scared and loses sleep over Rodgers' backup. He can't help but point out a negative even while he himself can only point to one other team (in post #9) that has a "satisfactory" backup QB situation. IOW like almost every other team in the NFL, if the Packers' QB is out for a substantial portion of the season or the playoffs, they're screwed. I swear if rodell330 won a $100M lottery halfway through his post letting us all know about it, he'd complain about the taxes he owed!...our backup QB situation still scares me.
I used to wonder if his negativity was a residue of resentment towards Thompson over the Favre-made-mess but more and more I just think he can't help it: For some people the glass is half full and for some it's half empty. For a select few the glass is about to drop off a ledge and shatter into a million pieces! [/]
