[QUOTE="TJV, post: 513087, member: 4300"] No misplaced loyalty. Unlike you, I am a fan of the franchise and have never put a player - [I]any [/I]player - above that loyalty. And yes, Ted Thompson led the Packers to the Super Bowl win. Just as Ron Wolf did before him. Like Wolf, Thompson's title is [I]Executive V.P., General Manager & [U]Director of[/U][/I][U] (all)[I] Football Operations[/I][/U] (I inserted the word, "all" for emphasis). Like Wolf, Thompson put together the Super Bowl roster including acquiring the QB. Like Wolf, Thompson hired the HC and had final say over all personnel matters. Both men were very much responsible for "the guys on the field" you were rooting for as well as the men on the field coaching them. BTW, IMO the creation of that position, with its consequent powers almost entirely free from interference from the executive committee, was the brilliant insight of Bob Harlan which turned the franchise around (with an unfortunate hiatus while Mike Sherman served as VP, GM and HC). I wish I could say it's good to meet you and that I look forward to your posts. Being constrained by honesty I can't say the former and I don't look forward to your posts. I prefer Packers fans who at least attempt to look at the team objectively. [/QUOTE]
