Just think, We scored 31 points against a real good defense. Another wide receiver or two on our roster might have made a bigger difference yesterday?
Yeah, because prior to TT we never had any stars on our team. In fact the Packers didn't even have a pro shop until TT became GM.Do you have rodgers, nelson, cobb, jones, matthews or any other stud like that, poster or jersey? If so thank TT otherwise you wouldnt have the privalage to wear it..
The Packers opened their pro shop in 1989 and it was expanded in 2002. Thompson became GM in 2005.Yeah, because prior to TT we never had any stars on our team. In fact the Packers didn't even have a pro shop until TT became GM.
We went 15-1 a few years ago, so no need to even draft players after a year like that.Just think, We scored 31 points against a real good defense. Another wide receiver or two on our roster might have made a bigger difference yesterday?
Really?? Players retire, get injured, move on in free agency, etc. You can't be taken seriously!We went 15-1 a few years ago, so no need to even draft players after a year like that.
OK, I'll bite. Who did we loose of any significance, after our 15-1 season? I'd say that irrespective of how much we scored on Cleveland Sunday (your post insinuating that as a result we don't need any help on offense in the form of WRs), we have lost far more significant players this year already, than we did between our playoff loss two years ago and the draft. Yet somehow, you think that we should stand pat now, but there was a greater need (players retire, get injured, move on, free agency) to add to our team after 15-1 than there is now. You, my friend, can't be taken seriously.Really?? Players retire, get injured, move on in free agency, etc. You can't be taken seriously!
You apparently just can’t help yourself.
So you will condescendingly criticize the 'suits' at any mere glimpse of a perceived sign of weakness, but will never extend an iota of credit for anything positive. Got it.Answer to the first question is, up to now, no. Second question, because I'm a Packer fan. I have pictures on my walls, posters in my man cave, jerseys in my closet. All of them pay tribute to the players. I don't have a set of TT cargo shorts, an MM XXXL packers belt, or a Mark Murphy invisiline promotional posters. I'm a fan of the players, not the suits.
Don't know where I said that, but it was a good read. I criticise the "suits" whenever I feel that criticism is due. If they do something right, the same. If some want to heap praise on them and not criticise them, that's fine too, its just not me.So you will condescendingly criticize the 'suits' at any mere glimpse of a perceived sign of weakness, but will never extend an iota of credit for anything positive.

True.
And there is also this which helped me understand and appreciate any Packers wins no matter how they get it done.
Without the services of receiver Randall Cobb, who is expected to miss 4-8 weeks because of the fractured fibula he .
Yeah, for every Marshawn Lynch there's a Trent Richardson. For every Randy Moss in Minnesota the first time, SF and NE. There's a Randy Moss in Oakland, MIN second time and TEN. It's a gamble.2005 was Thompson's first year as GM for an over the cap Packers team. In that same year, RonWolf remarked that Brett was surrounded with many players only qualified to to play NFL Europe. The 2010 SB team won as a result of team depth (and a QB getting freakishly hot at the right time) that was needed due to the large number of injuries. There are times he could have pulled the trigger on a trade such as for Lynch but overall he avoids reactive quick-fix solutions for long term strategy. Personally, I would like to see a bit more willingness to throw the dice during a season to address a need but I don't think it is going to happen.
No reverence or even appreciation for Vince Lombardi from a “Packers” fan? No surprise considering the source but it reinforces the idea he’s more a Favre fan than Packers fan. And while he’ll never admit it, you can bet he appreciated "the suit" who was Ron Wolf, who brought his hero to Green Bay.Seriously. Its been 50+ years. I wasn't born. So, no, I don't have a Vince Lombardi poster/jersey/shrine.
Caddyshack was about Brian's youth, written by Brian, Brian was in the movie, and Brian assisted in directing the movie, but for whatever reason, Bill Murray gets the fans and praise. Its just how it works.

Bus, sometimes I think you are serious and then I say no you can't possibly be.OK, I'll bite. Who did we loose of any significance, after our 15-1 season?
