No idea what make of: RT @JermichaelF88 I 'm striving toward this acting thing. I'm definitely gonna work hard on that whatever comes my way
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
No, Bretsky, Brad Jones is a situational player. I think there are a couple particular situations in which he can be effective. You think there are no situations in which he can be effective. Either way, he's situational. See?

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 ?

Newhouse makes Gary Brown look like Jonathan Ogden.

Yea, watching Marshall do his best matador imitation and seeing Sherrod on the bench bothered me. Now, knowing stubby, he doesn't like to use guys who haven't practiced much over guys who have...he continually gave MD Jennings the start only to bench him for Richardson. Its his thing. I hate his thing, but it least it gives me hope that Sherrod isn't an entirely lost cause. Truth though, we will know the whole answer by the end of TC this year.
I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
Hush, Red. Don't be talking that way.

Is Flynn still on the team?
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

Blog post about Packers remaining cap space and possible upcoming costs: http://tinyurl.com/nw9m8jb
Short version: about $14 mil
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
can someone explain to me why "real reporters" keep saying this shit?
how the fuck do you even come close to this number?The Packers are trying to sign at least a couple more of their free agents; likely will need between $5 million and $7 million for their rookie class; and likely will try to extend the contracts of receivers Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson, perhaps among others, sometime this year.
the salary cap counts the 53 or 55 guys on the roster with the highest cap number
our 1st round pick last year (datone, #26 overall) had a cap number of about 1.5 million. our second rounder cost 600,000, and the numbers go down for each player from there. tretter counted 500,000 for a 4th rounder, hyde counted 450,000, sam barrington, a 7th rounder, cost 360,000 against the cap
so to add up, one guy making 1.5 million, and about 9 guys averaging about 450,000 each =
so there their stupid 5.6 million dollar number
the problem is, those guys are going to be replacing 10 guys that are already on the roster, who at worse are making the minimum. so rounds 2-7 are gonna be close to a wash, you're replacing minimum wage guys with other minimum wage guys. the only guy who will move the cap space is the first rounder. and guess what, he'll be at worse, replacing another minimum wage guy, so at the most the cap space would move about a million bucks for the whole draft class.
am i missing something, because every national guy and everyone who follows them keeps chirping about how you need 5 to 7 million in cap space to devote to your draft class
is there some weird rule, where rookie contracts don't displace other guys already on the roster?
anyone?
and where does this clown get 14 million from, both my sites for cap space (which are both pretty damn accurate, have us with more then 16 million, even after the starks signing. must be nice to be a packer beat writer. don't have to know jack shit, can just make up things out of thin air (14 million), and just spout off your opinion as fact and anyone that dares question you is an ignorant fool who isn't "in the loop", and take home a nice paycheck.
so all i have to say. wheres my fucking money?
