That will be a nightmare for playoff implications, TV contracts etc. They need to send word down right now that this isn't going to become a trend,
    It was the coaches who decided to cut the meaningless game short. Why the fuck would bubble players like 82, “the White WR,” CB27, “Patrick Taylor,” the Black Punter of the New England Traitors and the such want a shortened game? They’re missing out on precious reps. Hell, we didn’t even get to see Patrick Taylor on D cos everyone’s darling, Valentine, was hogging up reps and getting beat by a 7th round WR, all at LaFleur’s urging.

    What are you talking about, Patrick Taylor on D?
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Taylor wears 27, ain’t he? I saw 27 play defense against the Kentucky Pussycats. Not against the Traitors.

    Correct. Because of roster sizes and retired numbers, in preseason some players 'share' a number. William Hooper was 27 on D.

    I think it sucks for the fans to have a game cut short, but honestly if the coaches got what they wanted out of the joint practices and the game up to that point, I'm ok with them ending it early. Apparently some players were a bit shook by Bolden's injury, and if they want to call it, let them. Gets you to the post-game bar that much faster, and the quality of 4Q preseason is rarely good anyway.

    It cost the Packers a pretty penny to call the game.

    I believe that is it was up to the coaches they would have joint practices and shit can the preseason games. They get more out info out of practice i believe,

    It's hard to tell when a lyin goof like Tank loses it, but I'd say he's close

    That happened years ago, KY. Tank has to muster up a lot of effort to even come off like an asshole these days.
