Troy Aikman, Packer Hater

[SkinBasket]

I searched these forums, and didn't find any posts about Aikman, or his bias against the Packers, but when I googled it, I found all sorts of articles and posts from people who feel the same way.

That's because the search fucking sucks donkey ass on this site.

Here's the one I remember: http://packerrats.com/showthread.php...ost-Bears-Game

I don't care about the anti-Packer stuff. He's boring.

Hey, YOU try to be interesting when most of your prefrontal cortex resembles a chunk of punky, worm-ridden firewood due to multiple blows to the head.

I could care less if he likes the Packers...he stinks as a color guy. As Rand said he if fucking BORING...and stupid.

I guess I don't understand why people care so much whether Troy Aikman likes the Packers.

Packers sucked yesterday, so if he said some negative things about the Packers, they were probably true.

He praises Rodgers on a regular basis.

I didn't get to hear yesterday's broadcast, but I'd say that, post-Favre meltdown until GB's Super Bowl and return to prominence, that many would say that Aikman was very favorable toward the Pack.

Everyone likes the up-and-comer storyline. The Packers were that team a few years ago. Now they are on the other side of that.

Boy you guys have some serious displaced hatred to go along with drug/delusional behaviors.

IMO it is disgusting with the continual love fest for A-rod. Likes MM as a play caller and TT's personnel decisions. Always gives the Packers the benefit of the doubt.

In fact Aikman almost sounds like a Packer homer.

Aikman's ok. I think it's a little 'homerlike' to bash him. Phil Simms on the other hand is like nails on a chalkboard to me. His weaselly accent drives me nuts.

It has little to do with Aikman's color commentary.

It has more, I believe, to do with his 'in game - on the field' analysis. It simply might be 'just' in his manner or personality and nothing truly specific.

How can anyone here truly have enough to claim that he hates 'the Green Bay Packers'. That position would remove his credibility as an NFL brodcaster, IMO.

Aikman's not that bad.............and I have a hard time saying he owned the Packers.

The Packers inability,IMO, to beat the Cowboys in the 90's....as I reflect on it and rewatch some fo those games...stems from two hugh points in retrospect

1. Dallas OL mostly dominated our DL and LB's in many of those games
2. We always lost the turnover batle. OFten when it seemed like we weer getting over the hump in coming back, one timely turnover, often a pick, would bury us.

We were not good enough to overcome dominance in the trenches and the turnovers

HMMMM...sound familiar ????

Does that mean we're about to sign Reggie White?
