    I expect he will re-sign with GB for about half the cap hit he would have had. This is much like the AJ Hawk situation a few years ago. He was released and re-assigned just a couple days later to avoid a roster bonus. Nelson's is more about salary, but he also has a modest roster bonus, I think.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    He's not coming back. GM released a statement thanking him and wishing him the best in the future. Said he will be in the packers hall of fame one day blah blah blah.

    I think Nelson is gone too; based on past history he'll prolly be a VIking
    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 ?
