I just called my bookie and put money on the rookie 2nd rounder being the Pack's new LG. What's the rook's name? Jason Biggs? Didn't he fuck a pie in American Pie?

I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel.
Correct me if I'm wrong - there's an unnecessary request - but 4 of the 5 starters on line are in contract year. Maybe they want to move past Sitton era, he is the weakest link in their view. But why make the move now? Why, why, why? Makes zero sense.
I'm in denial; this would be idiotic.
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 ?
Just like the time he released Jon Ryan for Frosty the Noodle-Legged Punter, Thompson once again makes another incompetent move.

I thought the salary cap issues would come home to roost NEXT YEAR.
One question that needs to be asked with Sitton, is it possible they asked him for a pay cut? That would have been a huge slap in the face. That is just pure speculation but it would explain why they decided to cut him instead of going forward. I don't think he asked for an exorbitant amount of money.

If Ted asked him to take a pay cut or get release, IMO....more idiotic.......
We're trying to win a SB; I don't get this. We are below the cap.
Let him walk next year if need be. But this makes no sense to me

Agree. A bridge had to have been burned and/or a line drawn in the sand one way or another. esoxx makes a good point about Sitton's ego and personality.
every team has to manag whacked out egos and personalities; it's part of a GM's job. Think life was easy behind the scenes babysitting Favre and the gang ?
Was he getting paid a boatload ? I can't believe they could not get a draft pick for him

HOFer
and both went to TT's old team, the seachickens
i'm not saying its a conspiracy, but a lot of people are saying it is
And the reason I don't post much anymore is because I would love to make a joke about a former democrat running as a republican to get his friend elected, but then everyones panties would get up in a bunch that I'm talking politics, then they would run to the Kapernick thread to ......
I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
HOFer
glad you picked up on the joke though
Don't know why people keep saying this. Sitton hasn't gone anywhere
Ted Thompson on releasing Sitton: "This was done with a focus on what is best for the team and the growth of the offensive line"
Can they really not get anybody to trade for their best OL ??

We don't really know what GMs think of his more recent game tape, this year and last.
Nobody's going to trade for a guy with a $6.5 million base salary that would be guaranteed on the first day of the season.

Pure speculation here but have to guess Sitton went off on someone in front office (perhaps Ted) about not extending his contract. Anyone who has listened to him in interviews knows he has no problem expressing his opinion, sometimes crudely.
I don't buy this, but for the record...
Talked briefly with Josh Sitton and he told me that there was no showdown over his contract and that he was completely caught off guard with the call he received this morning. Said he assumed the team wanted to go with younger players and they just didn't plan on going forward with him.
by Tom Silverstein 3:51 PM
was he getting a terribly high wage ?
Which guy will start who is "better" than Josh Sitton at the position ?
Shocking

With these things, always a backstory. https://t.co/RqSBgmFq3e
