They don't care about me personally and I don't care about them. Players are commodities, like bread or whatever. Pieces to achieve the goal for the organization. It's their job. My anti-driver bias is because he was a jerk to me. That shouldn't affect other people's persona of him, after all, he is playing a character on tv when you think about it, the better image he crafts the better it is for him. My big issue with these "activate driver" things is the packers don't owe him anything. He's not one of the 53 best players on this team or one of the top 6 receivers. That is apparent to the coaching staff. Fans expressing outrage over this are ridiculous. You'd think there was some statistical evidence or even game film from this year to show otherwise.</blockquote>
