so much for our revamped oline. They're going to get brett killed

While I agree that Walker didn't do himself any favors, its clear that Ted chose not to bring him back. His big stance was that management doesn't renegotiate deals with more than one year left on them, yet he did so for Driver.

This is the fallout of the Duke Lacrosse case. Now prosecuters want to be positive about the charges when a star athlete is involved for fear of being sued if the charges are dropped. Either way, they have Vick. There is more than enough evidence on the property to prove that it was used for...

The only thing that guarantees Ted an extension is winning. If the team does not win and improve, then he is guaranteed nothing.

Sorry for digging up an old thread but I just wanted to clarify my position and I haven't had time to read the site lately. I was responding to OPs general depiction of a "good fan" being someone that is always positive and supportive of the team, not your post. It is my belief that a "good fan"...

Say what you want, but blindly supporting management does not make you a good fan. You can be critical of management and still support your team. Until TT proves that he can build a winner in GB I will keep my blinders off. I'm not saying he can't do it, but I have the right to have my own...

Re: Packers & Oannes Uh, it's "don't be fatuous Jeffrey"

Right now it is an average of 7.85 with a standard deviation of 2.15. Also, do you really think that if we win less than 4 games management won't consider firing TT? We have a new board president that may want to select his GM and there is history for firing people once we're convinced its...

Interesting attitude, if we followed your plan, we would have never had Reggie White. Reggie came here because Wolf did such a good job of convincing him that GB was ready to turn it around and because with Favre he had a good chance to win a Super Bowl. Even Reggie's agent thought that he was...

Frankly most people that I know that are persuasive and able to convince people to do things 1 on 1 also have the ability to speak well in public. I'm not reaching for things to complain about, TTs track record is not that great when it comes to closing the deal on FAs and trades.

If that's the case, why do players come in for visits? Can't they just exchange contract numbers over the phone or via email? Why did Brady lobby so hard to Randy Moss to get him to come to NE? Like any other decision, you have to convince these guys to come. Granted, it makes it easier when...

Granted Millen has been pretty gawd awful during his tenure, but I think the Lions may finally turn it around this year. Their offense is picking up and the addition of Johnson can only help.

I respectfully disagree. There is an element of salesmanship to bringing FAs in at your price. IMO, TTs personality and lack of diplomacy(Walker) lead to us being unable to bring people in when they have other options. If it was only money, players would only sign at the clubs they got the...

And I start out the thread by saying what kind of leash the FANS would give him.

I wouldn't be shocked if that had an effect on him luring FAs though.
