Thinking about the media's role in this whole fiasco.....
Remember how, a few years ago, we were all defending BF against the national media? They were all saying he was washed up and needed to retire. Remember all the articles out there that were saying that BF was selfishly hurting the Pack because he wouldn't call it quits? They were saying that his skills were gone and that his own selfishness was causing the Pack to go into a tailspin. Many of us on this board at that time knew that there were other reasons for the decline an the struggles.
Fast forward to this year. BF is now THE MAN once again, and they just hammer the Packer org for deciding to "move on" without him after he announces his retirement.
These guys are just like flies on sh#t. They changed their whole perspective just to sell more papers, get more listeners, and gain more viewers. Nearly every media memeber was on the "BF is finished" bandwagon when they went 4-12 and then the next year started out slow.
I hate these guys.
