[QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 45893, member: 145"] I posted something about that exact situation..[url=http://www.packerforum.com/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=45643#45643]My post on this last week[/url] In your article, it mentioned Brett was going to re-do his contract to help the situation..If you look more into it, look at what other players did to help the cap room for that year... Why isn't Wahle or Sharper catching as much flak for not wanting to take a pay cut???
