    I am actually unsure if he is saying anything different than past practice. I think this quote is Holmgrenian.

    The only info is that they used to be more cautious "in the past". Not sure that is true and it makes me think this is press conference word salad that allows him to say Bulaga won't sit if he can play. Sounds definitive and authoritarian, but its also patently obvious.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Everyone realizes that if Bulaga starts on Sunday, he'll leave the game injured again...right? We all know this....right?

    But deep down we cheer for Bulaga....cause he is a good guy and is a stellar OL when he's in

    That's the difference between Bulaga and Fluffy
    Simply put one can play and one can't
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Is Bulaga more of a "good guy" than Sherrod?

    It's just a bandwagon thing. Remember how people cheered against James Jones, James Starks, Darren Sharper early in their stumbling careers? Once you identify a player as bad, you kinda want them to fuck-up to validate your judgment, and to prod the coach to get um out of your site. If they turn it around, all is forgiven, in fact you kinda saw a spark there all along.

    If Sherrod plays and screws the pooch, I'll be self-satisfied and say "I told you so."
    If Sherrod has a good game, I'll be happy and relieved, say "I told you so."
    I've been very careful to stake-out firm positions on both sides of the Sherry issue.

    At this point, Bulaga has surpassed Sherrod in being unavailable. That is impressive in its own right.

    With Malumba going down with what MM termed a significant knee injury, is next man up Adrian Hubbard?

    I don't think they need another OLB, but they need somebody to replace him on special teams. I wonder if Chris Banjo will get the call--unless Elliott or possibly Hubbard could do it.

    I wonder if Bulaga will play. MCL sprain = MCL tear, it could be a couple more weeks

  10. #50
    Banjo seems like the obvious choice, since Hyde is also banged up and that leaves us with 3 safeties...

    Honestly I don't know much about Sherrod the person so I have no idea; I just don't think he's as good

    It's pretty clear that a healthy Bulaga is preferrable to Sherry at RT. What I would hope is that Bulaga would stop getting hurt and maybe Sherrod could improve his game and push Bakhtiari at LT, where the dancing bear type is less of a liability and more of the ideal.

    1/2 Unfortunately, My ACL injury was confirmed this morning, and it's just one of those bumps on the road! Nothing that I can't overcome!

    Just not his year.

    Where are you going to watch the next Packers game?

    Hopefully the couch with that hammy iced up!

    Is Bostick going to be a factor Sunday?

    Hayward has NOT injured his hammy.

    Ryan Wood ‏@ByRyanWood 5h
    #Packers injury report:
    Bulaga knee limited
    Hayward glute DNP
    Hyde knee limited
    Jones quad DNP
    Mulumba knee out

    Its the quad he hurt compensating/strengthening for the hammy.

    I hope so.

    TE has become a vast wasteland.

    I actually miss Fin a little.

    At least he ran free enuff to get targeted, then he'd drop the ball.

    This bunch doesn't even warrant a second look.

    As so often happens, the rook who dazzles us in the preseason discovers that the real games are much, much more difficult.

    Quarless is a pedestrian on a highway, we know that, but Rodgers was supposed to be a ball magnet. So far, he hasn't done much.
