    OK. And a lot of people wanted Moss. This is good.

    But when have you been wrong? See, that is the had part. If you were GM, I would have a list of your busts. But on a message board, I only have a list of your greatest hits.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    You just need to pay better attention to him; you seem to remember all of my busts........lol
    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 ?

    Just the one's you talk about actually.

    Except for Chad Jackson, that one came up on the board for comparison a LOT in their first three years because he and Jennings were so close in draft position and Hoody was the other GM involved. I think they would have gotten discussed whether you were involved or not.

    And I think you know this, but for those who don't, its not a knock. Making a call about a draft pick preference even BEFORE teams start to leak rankings is putting yourself out there. Maybe not brave, but gutsy advocacy. I don't do it because I remember my horrible track record (Webster Slaughter, Leroy Hoard, Kevin Stemke to name just a few).

    Many, not all, of the free agent advocates don't ever talk about the miss rate. That it might be worse than drafting and more expensive and the infrequent recall of the times it doesn't work.

    However, Zool has an even better reason to be skeptical. Some of the players in question might not want to come to Green Bay to play for a variety of reasons.

    My wife seems to have a very detailed list of all my busts. I'd put a copy on here but according to her it there isn't enough memory in all the internet for all my screw ups.
