I'm so glad I don't know what Greg Bedard looks like--no need to show me, thanks...

Bigby once again showing his stubbornness.

Whatever, it should be dealt with and that'll be the end of it.

In other news, good to see Korey doing well. He's a good blocker and it's a plus to have him ready for Saturday.

You're welcome.

Bigby continues to prove why he is NOT the answer at safety. Despite his talent, the guy has a big void between his ears that it seems he will never completely overcome.

Oh, my bad, I must of misread it.

[MJZiggy]

Now my eyes hurt.

No huge deal there is there? Young man has to get it done a day earlier as the mission is criticle.

Get Favre his third shot at a Super Bowl so he can retire win or lose.

I'm reminding Y'all of ''Any Given Sunday'' .

That should be our personal mantra here. Kharma.

Flight schedules are crazy up here since New Year's and weather has been bad all over including Forida. I do agree that we need to address the safety spot (Nick Collins??. . . Uhhhh ! ) in the off season and the SS LBer (SAM) as well.

As anybody else seen the movie "Igby Goes Down"? Very clever, darkly funny.

I always think "Bigby Goes Down" now.

no biggie. we don't know the whole story and heck even if he just overslept he's human and it can happen to anyone. as for "running into McCarthy's office naked", this isn't high school football. everyone is an adult here and should be treated as such. i think we have a reporter who's board and wants to create some excitement.

[MJZiggy]

Maybe secretly he's always just wanted his readers to picture him naked...

I am not a huge fan of either Collins or Bigby, but I thought both of their play got a heck of a lot better after their disappointment in Dallas. For some reason I see Nick Collins make more and more plays in run support, unfortunately this also gets him in trouble with play action.

Both have me day dreaming of the time when we had Robinson and Butler as our starting safeties. Anyways, safety is not an easy position for the younger player, although they can be easily added it takes time to really feel the tempo and nuances of the game. In a way it is a lot harder mentally than corner, because there really isn't match ups based on isolated assignments.

I do see a brighter future in Green Bay for Bigby than Collins, as long as he gets his act together. Collins is cut more out of the mold of Antuan Edwards, but a notch better.
