Not much shocks me anymore in here. For those of us who have long held that Ted Thompson's agenda was to make this "his" team, which includes removing every influence from the prior GM(s) and coaching staff(s) team(s), Ted Thompson didn't disappoint us. For those of you who have done nothing but ridicule us, you want the truth but you can't handle the truth. There were a lot of things that went on during this whole ordeal that we will never know. You can BANK on Brett Favre opening up his mouth and saying what he feels and what he believes even if YOU think he "sounds" like a prima-dona, at least you cannot question his sincerity and honesty. You certainly CAN NOT say the same about Ted Thompson.
What I said holds true, this is about wining football games. Without question, for Ted Thompson, that is not the case, it's about Ted Thompson. I read someone say that Ted doesn't get to determine who gets to play, that is steaming pile of dung. A GM has more influence then you think, especially one that wants things his way. After watching Family Night and part of the first pre-season game, I can say this much, you Rodgers apologists disgust me. He does NOT look all world. He looks a tad below average. I saw the words "goes through progressions", really? I didn't see that once. He looked at who he was going to throw at when the ball was snapped and then watched them until they were open. Sure you have to "read" the defense at the line of scrimmage but you "look off" the receivers so the defense doesn't start to key on your eyes. His timing wasn't great and if Favre had thrown that interception you can BANK on the Rodgers apologists calling for Favre to be benched. But because Rodgers threw into double coverage (for those of you who have no idea what that is, it means two defensive players are covering the area) and the ball was "tipped", it isn't his fault. Horse squeeze, it is his fault, just like it would have been Favre's fault. If the receiver had made the catch it would have been an "outstanding" catch, not a good or advised throw.
Don't get me wrong, Rodgers did have some nice throws. He looked "better" then he did against Dallas and he looked all world in comparison to Brian Brohm, which isn't saying much. I am a Packer fan and he is our QB but that doesn't mean I have to spoon all over the guy when it's obvious he has a long way to go. He also is still doing the things that he needs to improve on to make it in this league: Stares down his primary receiver, has zero pocket presence, and his accuracy is a little bit of a concern (let me guess, it's the receivers running the wrong route right?).
I am pretty sick an tired of all of the bs people like myself have to take for pointing out the truth, the obvious, and also sharing what we consider to be our opinions. Your rhetoric is old, we all get it, you have a love affair for Ted Thompson and Aaron Rodgers and you have no tolerance for the truth or anyone else's opinion. I am sick of reading post after post of the same line of sheep manure. If your shit doesn't stink, then I suggest you create your own sight so you and your rump rangers can all share the same brain in harmony instead of having to pass it from thread to thread. It's boring, tiring, and as anit-Packer fan as you can get.
