    Jim Schwartz is really starting to piss me off.

    Packers coach Mike McCarthy appreciates Jim Schwartz’s concern about how the Green Bay Packers used their allotted minicamp practices, but the Packers coach feels pretty good about his decision to cancel a day of practice last month to take his players skeet shooting as a team-bonding exercise, ESPNMilwaukee reports.

    That move drew a not-so-thinly veiled shot from Schwartz, who had his Detroit Lions practice all three days.

    “We had no sporting clays today or no amusement parks or water parks. Work day of minicamp," Schwartz said following the Lions’ final practice of minicamp last month. “We take a lot of pride in the fact that we play for a blue-collar town and we try to reflect that kind of work ethic, and we have very few opportunities to practice this off-season. ... Every one was crucial and couldn’t afford to waste any."

    McCarthy was clearly aware of Schwartz’s comment when he was asked about the Packers’ budding rivalry with the upstart Lions on Thursday during an appearance on Green & Gold Today.

    “Their approach is really tailored to the way they go about their business, starting with their head coach,” McCarthy said. “I don’t know what the problem with skeet shooting is; I thought that was probably one of the best events we’ve ever had here.”

    This guy is quickly becoming one of the NFL's biggest jerks.

    Ignore him. They havent won shit and they wont win shit with Glass Joe at QB and WR.

      Yeah, Schwartz is a jealous douche. Not a news item.

        It took you this long to figure it out?

        Schwartz's style is well reflected by his team. They get stupid personal foul penalties and they get arrested all the time. No discipline. Schwartz's run-in with Harbaugh was a perfect example. You don't have to like the way Hatbaugh handled the handshake but you don't run after the guy yelling.

        I always appreciated Bud Grant's style of no spiking the football and acting like you have been there before.
        But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

            No, Ive known it for a while. Yes I like the Grant analogy. This guy is trying to fit into that mold, maybe Ditka.. but he's too much of a wienie to pull it off. He acts like an over-the-top pee wee football dad. This obviously permeates throughout his team, thus they are going nowhere with this guy.

              He should try talking shit about teams that didn't sweep his team last season.

                I enjoyed this: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...r-jim-schwartz

                "I don’t really worry about what other people do. I don’t pay much attention to their clips. Like every team, you have media clips put on your desk every day, and I don’t really pay (attention to) mine. I worry about who’s playing for them and how they’re playing and what we need to do to beat them,” McCarthy said.

                Translation: We're in your head. Keep our name out of your mouth.

                “Their approach is really tailored to the way they go about their business, starting with their head coach,” McCarthy said. “I don’t know what the problem with skeet shooting is; I thought that was probably one of the best events we’ve ever had here.”

                Translation: The Lions are undisciplined, like their coach.

                “Just the interaction with the policemen and the players was excellent. You were literally handed a gun, pulled the trigger and handed it back to the police officer. That part of it was in place for the safety,” McCarthy said.

                Translation: When we interact with cops, our players don't end up in handcuffs.

                    The Lions players get their skeet shooting in at their 'hood in the offseason.

                    Schwartz has penis envy, and it's only going to get worse when the Bears prove to be the true #2 team in the division this season.
                    It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

                      Absolutely perfect description, right there.

                          Mike McCarthy fires back at Jim Schwartz's criticism
                          http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/07/20/mike-mccarthy-fires-back-at-jim-schwartzs-criticism/
                          And mark another one blasted out of the sky for Mike McCarthy.


                          And mark another one blasted out of the sky for Mike McCarthy.

                          The Packers coach fired back at criticism from counterpart Jim Schwartz of the Lions Thursday, and actually killed two birds with one shot.

                          Back in June, Schwartz took a poke at the Packers for canceling a day of OTAs to go skeet shooting.

                          “We had no sporting clays today or no amusement parks or water parks. Work day of minicamp,” Schwartz said following the Lions’ final practice of minicamp last month. “We take a lot of pride in the fact that we play for a blue-collar town and we try to reflect that kind of work ethic, and we have very few opportunities to practice this off-season. . . . Every one was crucial and couldn’t afford to waste any.”

                          So when McCarthy appeared on Green and Gold Today on ESPNMilwaukee radio, and was asked about the rivalry between the Lions and Packers, he scored a pair of shots.

                          “Their approach is really tailored to the way they go about their business, starting with their head coach,” McCarthy said. “I don’t know what the problem with skeet shooting is; I thought that was probably one of the best events we’ve ever had here.”

                          Here’s where it gets good. McCarthy then explained that the event had police officers at each station handling the guns, so the Packers were sure to be safe.

                          “Just the interaction with the policemen and the players was excellent. You were literally handed a gun, pulled the trigger and handed it back to the police officer. That part of it was in place for the safety,” McCarthy said. “But it was really a neat day. We’ve tried some different things, and by far it was our best group dynamic/team building event that we had. I actually got a chuckle out of hearing someone else worried about us taking our team skeet shooting.”

                          So, apparently the Packers can be around cops without being placed in the back of their cars, which the Lions have had a bit of trouble with this offseason.

                          McCarthy went onto talk about not getting caught up in the back-and-forth of bulletin board material, saying he’d prefer to focus on the football.

                          He then paused and said: “We have a lot of confidence in the way we run our program, and we’re always trying to make it better. And I think skeet shooting is going to be the difference in us getting back to the Super Bowl. So there.”

                          Oh my.
