[QUOTE="P@ck66, post: 133750, member: 212"] Very simply... When Ron Wolf got to GB he said.."HEY..I'm gonna do this, and that, and the other thing and put GB back on the map by bringing championships to Titletown once again..." "I'm gonna go out and sign Reggie White.." "I'm gonna help out our QB Brett Favre"...etc..etc.. And then he delivered on these promises... He brought a sense of excitement and expectation to a franchise where these things had been looooooooong gone..(except for '89). Now where and who do you think a FA player or a rookie is going to want to play....? For a guy like Wolf who inspires belief and hope in a franchise for greatness, or for a taciturn, miserly, unfriendly loner who makes you feel like you are a guinea pig for his inscrutible machinations...??? Let me put it this way... I find it very strange when a reporter asks the GM a question like... "Doesn't having Brett Favre come back for another year greatly help the Packers chances"...and the GM...(paraphrasing: "Yeah, I guess so...maybe..but it really doesn't matter much".... I mean WTF is that..??) [/QUOTE]
