Thread: Report: Thompson out as GM

    You guys are hilarious. Youre acting as if the Packers have been a dumpster fire since Ted was hired instead of a perennial playoff contender.

    These are dangerous times for the organisation and if Murphy fucks this up, you’ll be singing a different tune.

    Yeah, I’ve joked about it. But something really doesn’t seem right with him. I remember listening to one interview with him this year and thinking he sounded like he just had a stroke

    He didn’t use to be like that, at least not that bad

    He might have early-stage dementia. I am not saying this to poke fun, he honestly does seem that way.

    It happened after that hip or leg injury and surgery he had.

    But his drafts improved after that. Maybe he has been figurehead?


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

    The irony is too rich for words.

    That’s what I’m thinking, I’ve spent too much time at nursing homes, and I’ve seen a lot of people that look and talk like that

    He had a long NFL career as a special teams demon.

    Irony aside it's a good observation. One I missed.

    I wanted to start a thread "Hundley: GM killer" but I'm too mature now for such nonsense.

    I used to take care of the grounds for an elderly couple when I was in highschool. They were in their mid 90s. Emil and Dorothy Cobb. Emil was a professional boxer in the 30s and would give me boxing lessions - he considered it part of my compensation. Anyway, both Emil and Dorothy took me aside to warn me that the other one was starting to get a little funny in the head, and I should just humor them.

    I was thinking early onset alzheimer's.

    George Cumby -
    Agree completely. Ted Thompson is an excellent GM, and many may soon be wishing he stayed on in the post.

    So was he fired, or did he step down (as part of a planned transition)? I would think they know who the GM is already if it was a planned thing. I tend to think he was fired, which seems a little unfair frankly.

    I guess you could say old Emil had "lessions" on the brain.

    Yep, these are very scary times. First major move without Bob Harlan in control in many, many, many years.

    Nay, without Lombardi. How will we survive?
    After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.
