    Absolutely, plus one to that.

    I ain’t seen this big of a hard-on for a rookie since the Claymaker, the cocky kid from Southern Cal whom I jotted down on my ingenious “My Mastery Mockery of a Draft.” Like Watson, Claymaker missed most of his rookie training camp with injury. Claymaker didn’t start showing up til the infamous “Thanks Ted” game where, instead of tackling Adrian Peterson, the Claymaker opted to take away the rock - which he successfully did for 6.

    Uncool Pack fans have a thing for soft and fragile players.

    And like when a butterfly flaps its wings and causes chaos, C-Wat’s abominable drop on the very first play from scrimmage pretty much caused this chaotic season. Then the guy went all soft and fragile and didn’t show up again til the season has already been fucked.

    Charles Barkley calls Watson’s pretty stats as of late “garbage stats.”

    That being said, I am starting to like this guy on Madden. Speed should be higher than 94.

    This is a strawman argument. Nobody is high on him because he was hurt. If he did the same thing without any injuries people would be even more excited.

    Turn this around and look at it the other way. If you were to write off every player that was injured early in their career, I bet you'd miss a lot of really great players

    Soooo I had some friends in Wisconsin do some research on you. The information came back saying that game you shut Darren Charles in? You had already been eliminated from any kind of contention. Even worse you found out the night before he had stayed out late banging the girlfriend you had since Jr High. That’s why he was so tired. Is this the event that set you on the burger flipping path? Say it ain’t so, say it ain’t so…

    The first questions makes me think you have never been here before. I started the Rodgers hate club.

    The second questions make me wonder how you know to ask me…. You are set now. Give ‘em hell!

    In fairness, APB is a cuck. He actually SENT his girlfriend over to Darren Charles. Maybe he even factored in that it would tire him out, but mainly it was the cuck thing.

    I never had a girlfriend in high school.

    White chicks wouldn’t date me cos I acted Black. Black chicks wouldn’t date me cos I wasn’t Black. Asian and Hispanic chicks mainly dated within their respective races back then.

    Didn’t help that I devolved from downloading hot pics of Jennifer Love Hewitt to naked pics of Pamela Anderson to hardcore pics of Julia Ann.

    Porn addiction ain’t no joke. It dulls the mind and fucks with one’s ability to develop intimate relationships.

    According to Next Gen Stats, Watson’s sprint vs. Chicago was the Packers’ second-fastest over the last six seasons. Marquez Valdes-Scantling hit 22.09 mph on his 75-yard touchdown at Minnesota last season. That was indoors on turf; Watson was on grass on a cold day in December.

    He also had extra 30yards to get to that speed.

    Watson just runs out of field. That’s really how is looks when he runs, like he is barely getting in gear and has to shift down in the end zone.

    It is freaky how he doesn't look like he is flying, but no one is catching him either.

    lol, when did you start the Rodgers hate club? I've popped in on various Packers communities over the years. I surprisingly found A LOT of objective Packers fans who weren't in love with Rodgers. That was always interesting to me, because from the outside looking in, most people just see "elite Aaron Rodgers". Well, until now of course. I've also popped into various Seahawks communities in recent years, and was incredibly surprised how many of them wanted to move on from Wilson. I thought they were nuts! Well, they were right. I was dead wrong. Whatever is happening in Denver is, ... wow. Maybe Rodgers and Hackett need each other? lol

    Anyway, JABF sent me your way! He's a good dude who really speaks highly of your community. He told me to check the place out. Here I finally am! I wanted to make it over weeks ago, but I've been swamped with work, the site (Purple Pain), and traveling to Minnesota for the games. Sorry I didn't make it over until now.

    Welcome.
    There are definitely some "Aaron Godgers" types here, but I think generally posters try to be balanced and fair. Rodgers hasn't been good this year (compared to his career avg) and while there are mitigating factors (early OL issues, new WRs, no Davante Adams, injuries) his age and his contract extension -- and its effect on the cap -- are fertile ground for discussion. There's probably a thread somewhere dedicated to it, but it seems to bleed into every other thread as well. It's a QB driven league.

    As for Watson, the trade to get him looks positive for GB now... it's wayyy premature to make any other judgements though. Booth could be a decent player but you worry about his health, and I believe Ingram is starting although some had character concerns about him and thought he was a reach in R2. Minnesota had taken a bit of a different approach with the new GM and I know they are heavy-analytics. Will be interesting to see how it plays out, but there's always an element of luck with draft picks. So far I like what I've seen of Watson.
