    All right, I go away for a couple of days and Ted signs another FA? We can't say Ted didn't dip his toes in this year...

    Interestingly, Cowboys dumping a bunch of players this year too in FA.

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

    Geez, I wonder why they have cap issues.

    jerrah renegotiating contracts year after year. a year or two ago he didn't have enough to even sign draft picks. i forget who he renegotiated to fix that. the romo contract was a killer, one trick pony dez. tried to build a team for aging romo like we should be doing for Rodgers. what's kicked dallas' ass was romo not playing last year...their best chance to win a sb. they lucked into dak and now don't have room to do anything this year. the chances that the Packers immediately run into a great qb to take Rodgers place is slim to none. no way the Packers could do it three qbs in a row. that's why i'm in favor of future cap disarray, for the next gm, to go for it now while Rodgers is still good.

    i doubt they got there by signing a bunch of free agents to 1 year deals

    The only 2 glaring holes Ted hasn't plugged in FA are OG and RB. RB is one position where you can find immediate help in the draft so I don't know if you can say we are still in the minus column.

    Are you remotely happy with our four starting LB's ? Perry Matthews.................I think our pass rushing remains a huge hole we need to address.....as is team speed on defense
    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 ?
