[QUOTE="doughsellz, post: 250789, member: 1158"] Again I will ask: What good do OTAs do for #4??????? What more proof does a team need that #4 will give them 110% all the time, every time??????? So MM thinks VOLUNTARY team events should be mandatory. Big deal. They're NOT. Was MM creating an atmosphere in which he knew it would cause a rift between a HOF QB & the younger guys who need OTAs a whole lot more than the proven leader? I think so. Why? Only MM can answer that one for certain & my speculation isn't worth a darn but here it is: #4 was not conducive to the growth of the suddenly youngest team in the league. He had his private locker. Why? 'Cause he's a prima donna? No. Because the media couldn't stay away from him. Ever watch Packers.com's video interviews of players on their website? It's a free-for-all. Imagine what the scene was at #4's locker if he had one next to Mason Crosby. Make sense now? He had a weekly press conference to satisfy the news hounds every Wed. for about an hour in the main media room. MM didn't think that whole private locker thing was sending the right message to the younger guys that TT was filling the roster with so he did what he thought was best for the entire team. Right or wrong it caused tension between a player whom many believed deserved better & the rest of the team. MM winked his way through "these are voluntary activities" announcements all the while knowing it was a pain in the keester for the father of two who'd missed a lot of his daughters' growing up to play football for the Green Bay Packers. And now after 16 seasons they're wanting more off-season time than ever from #4 just to set a better example for the youngest team in the league? How many of you would have a much different outlook on your own employer in a similar situation? And please leave the $$$ out of this because it's beside the point. No amount of $$$ can make up for lost time with your children. [/QUOTE]
