I think you confuse realism with negativity. Or maybe you're confusing an opinion someone offers on the internet about Driver's football ability with what you would say to him face to face. But for better or worse, most of us don't get to talk with Packer players face to face, so this forum is what we have--and it has its benefits.

Do you really think that if Driver thought he could still play at a high level and some team offered him a contract that he would be content to sit at home? Loyalty is wonderful but in this case I strongly suspect it is the sign of a player who knows when to call it quits. More power to Driver for being able to take his ego out of the equation.Originally posted by woodbuck27 View PostI didn't in any reasonableness go to whatever? and bringing Donald Driver back. That simply isn't going to happen. That's not relevant to my position.
What bothered me is that any Packer fan would take his statement of loyalty and turn that in any manner against him pbmax. Any such post is a gross over reaction to Donald Drivers obvious loyalty.
GO PACK GO !

Yes it's likely just that hoosier.Originally posted by hoosier View PostDo you really think that if Driver thought he could still play at a high level and some team offered him a contract that he would be content to sit at home?

I'm guessing that he and TT had a clear understanding that last season would be his last. As NFL fans and Packer fans we know that it's by far best for a player such as he was to play for and retire from that 'one' team. I didn't read too much into Donald Driver saying that his 'loyalty' to the Green Bay Packers would 'if needed'. Extend to making some comeback (and remaining in shape) in case that ever became a reality.
I forgive that possible (maybe deemed gaff) from a player as solid as he was; and his first year of retirement. It's hard to remove oneself from the game you loved so much. Were so dedicated too for so long.

In other, hopefully unrelated news, Chad Johnson has announced he wants a last go-around.

No ... pbmax you question the validity of my opinions because their in your face. Because my opinions do NOT embrace the status quo of so many Packer fans here that don't have a clue in terms of respect for 'loyalty'.
You want to debate this pbmax then lay it on me. I welcome you and that pbmax. Let's air it out right here and now Packer fan. Let's see what you've got? Let's get down to the question of decency and respect. I'm sure that will draw a large audience. I'm up for the challenge.
If you simply choose to focus on my reaction and this thread:

Sometimes you write these clear, almost-terse statements that make a lot of sense. Sometimes I don't agree at all with your opinions. But most of the time, I'm not sure what your opinion actually is. I don't try to read your posts so much as try to navigate them, Wood.

Sorry Packer fan. This place simply gets to me sometimes. I get my Irish on. I get very pissed off. It's got little to do with needing any med's. It's all about some of the stupid jerks here.Originally posted by Fritz View PostSometimes you write these clear, almost-terse statements that make a lot of sense.

Ahh Mae. She's good. We're celebrating an anniversary today and tomorrow.
Thanks 'for some brakes' Fritz.

Then its a very simple question we should debate. I responded to this statement:Originally posted by woodbuck27 View PostWhat bothered me is that any Packer fan would take his statement of loyalty and turn that in any manner against him pbmax. Any such post is a gross over reaction to Donald Drivers obvious loyalty.
Yours was post 6 and that means there were five before it. What statement did you object to? What statement was turned against Driver?What is wrong with some of you 'Packer fans'? What does it take to please some of you 'Packer fans'?Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

Just so you know I could put a basketball down two handed in college when I weighed 190 lbs.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.

You know what, Woodbuck, I'm glad for you that you went off a little. I've long had a feeling that people not being loyal bothered the living piss out of you, but you never really said it. You were more passive-aggressive by my view.
The nice thing about aggressiveness, it's more direct. It gives people a chance to challenge you and now it gives you a chance to ignore that type of thing because it's NEVER going to change.
I know you're 68 years old and the greatest man in Canada, but I figure even Canada's greatest man might appreciate a little helpful criticism. I think you want to be accepted here, and you are. If you want to be even more accepted, I think it might be a good idea to not add, "go packers" or "Packers" to posts that have nothing to do with the Packers. You've come out here, pretty much showing your true colors, that the disloyalty disgusts you. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems pretty clear to me that you use that "go packers" thing as a way to sort of parade your wonderfulness around in the faces of the disgusting, non-true Packer fans. It's not exactly the olive branch of togetherness your mind would have you convinced of.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.
