Jermichael Finley's recent tweet and TT drafting of 2 TE's

[Brandon494]

You don't think calling him the best TE in football after the SB win is going out of his way? Shucks, I must be stupid. Oh, and racist.

Stupid? Yes for continuing to bring up race whenever I ask a fucking question. Maybe it's called being a good teammate and leader! He obviously knew Finley was hurt by not being able to play in the super bowl by the comments made about the team pictures and wanted to give his teammate a shout out.

Kind of like affirmative action for teammates?

And why didn't Barnett get a shout out? Is it because he's half white? Is Rodgers racist against white people?

[Brandon494]

Yup

[Bretsky]

nothing wrong with confidence. To me that is what that tweet was

[DannoMac21]

the way Farve acted when he first came into the league makes Finley look like an angel.

I'm asking this seriously because I don't know...what did he do?

It involved weenies, waitresses, drinking, vicodin, firearms, trick or treating, car chases, and jaywalking.

Wait...the jaywalking was Nick Barnett.

True, you'd think after losing 3 feet of intestines he'd get a clue. But the trick or treating was just funny.

[RashanGary]

I just watched the trick or treating. That was hilarious. Favre was a tank back in the day. I didn't know that was him. I thought 82 was a TE.

[Freak Out]

Man...can you imagine if nutters like LT had Twitter back in the day?

He could also just believe it.
He made similar statements last year such as "Ryan Grant is the running back this team has been missing". Does anyone think that he is just stroking Grants ego?

[Packman_26]

I guess I'm not sure what the huge concern is here. It seems that there are 3 "potential" issues that are all independent of each other.
Character: Does Finley have more concerns with attitude than, say Greg Jennings? Sure, but I would have more concerns with the attitude of Jennings than Mother Teresa. It doesn't mean that Jennings is a bad guy or that anything will ultimately come of it.
The other two, Injury and other offers are my favorites because they fly directly in the face of one another. Could Finley come back a lesser version of himself after the injury? Sure. Could he be so outstanding that he will eventually price himself out of Green Bay? Maybe. But isn't it silly to worry about both of these?
Maybe Finley has more potential issues than most others on the roster, I'm just not so sure that it's really all that concerning. I have a really hard time believing that Thompson is worried about it.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Agreed

[Tarlam!]

(...)Does anyone think that he is just stroking Grants ego?

Well, I do. I think Rodgers has his finger on the pulse and goes public with what he feels. Good for him. It's called leadership.
