    Color me surprised.

    I guess Ted made that decision given Murphy's earlier comments......unless he had a change of heart.

    That is now essential that MM be shown the door.

    That piece of PUFF has to be FIRED to get that REAL chance and the next Super Bowl appearance and possible win.

    I suspect it will be either Wolf, Ball or Guz.

    Man, things are happening fast and furious up there at 1265!

    Eliot Wolf, Brian Gutekunst, and Russ Ball are among the internal candidates the Packers are considering for general manager, according to Rapoport.

    HALLELUJAH!!!!

    My grandson just called and told me. They kicked him upstairs, I guess - whatever, as long is he is OUT.

    The big question now is will the next guy - Wolf or whoever - just continue the same crap that Ted has done? Or will they FINALLY go out and get some support for Aaron Rodgers before it's too late?
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    THE REACTION

    THE ANSWER IS SO SO SIMPLE.................ALL ABOARD !!!!!!!!

    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 ?

    Supposedly the whole front office will be reorganized with new roles for all. Murphy will decide who is responsible for what.
