THE TURTLE TALKS; and says; SOMETHING ABOUT NOTHING

Bretsky,

I'm still drinking the Polar Bear flavored Kool-Aid. I've not been surprised by anything except the signing of Pickett.

My gut tells me that Ted's got it under control.

I'm confused by this. Pickett was really our only good signing. Manuel might help some............but you said you are drinking the Polar Bear kool aide and then mention his only good signing ? Unless you expected TT to do pretty much nothing in terms of helpful "additions" ?

I would agree with Bretsky that Pickett is our only "very good" signing. Manuel could be only a good signing but I believe has potential. The other signings don't appear to have a great impact, excluding perhaps, the punter from Canada.

At this point, I am closer to being a TT supporter. My main point for supporting him is the short length of time he has been in office and also the fact that I do not think he has made many really "bone-headed" moves. However, maybe a few moves/non-moves that I have questioned. Especially, the apparent lack of acitivity in this year's free agency. Was not looking for a boat load of signings but thought we should of had at least one playmaker besides Pickett. Hopes he signs Woodson.

Thompson is doing a TOTAL rebuild. I don't mind too much. I'm glad he isn't bringing-in too many older free agents.

Too bad Favre had to go out this way, tho.
