Clefty thinks players are getting very bad advice and medical treatment from some sports doc weenies who really don't know what they're doing, much like the KC hack who operated on Sherrod.
    Was that any kind of emergency situation, did it need to be operated on immediately or could be have been transported to South Carolina.

    The Packers should just duplicate the UPS Zone chart, but instead of entering you ZIP code you punch in the injury and it tells you where to land the ambulance.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

        What if McCarthy tells Rodgers there was never a chance to play inside 8 weeks next Wednesday?

        We should poll about which crime Rodgers is likely to commit.

          When you get a complex fracture, you should go to an ortho trauma doc who handles complex fractures all the time, instead of a fool sports guy who has to make it all up from scratch because he mostly drives around in knees with a scope and a little shaving tool. Sherrod should sue for malpractice, and Rodgers should do the same if he develops cancer in the next ten years. Apparently, one CT scan is like 500 x-rays and is the yearly equivalent of max radiation dose your body can take. May as well send Rodgers into the Japanese reactor with a mop and bucket for a few minutes.

            I don't think he is getting a CT scan weekly or even bi-weekly. Last time I tried to confirm it, I think he had not gotten a scan in back to back weeks where there was positive conformation from M3 or Rodgers about any scan. If only one CT scan was done (recently), then there might not be any others. McKenzie could be waiting for the magical 8 week period to elapse as per Dr. Red.

              I read these tweets from Vandermause:

              Based on way Rodgers was flinging missiles today at practice, my sense is he really, really and I mean REALLY wants to play. #Packers

              Reporters were ushered out of Hutson Center before team drills so we don't know how many, or if Rodgers took snaps with No. 1 offense.

              Rodgers looked good today. During individual drills he rolled right, cut back to his left and rifled pass on run. #Packers

              Based on absolutely nothing else except my optimistic homerism, I think that Rodgers was told if he can go absolutely full speed at practice on Wednesday and Thursday (maybe even Friday), and have zero lingering pain or effects, they'll clear him to play. Of course that's just my opinion.

              I could be wrong.

                      Not clearing him till Friday could also be gamesmanship, forcing Steelers to prepare for Flynn as well as Rodgers. Unless Flynn's skill set doesn't require much prep.

                        Well even with AR this team proves that we will lose this week because we need the win...of course so will the Bears and the Lions will win.
                        Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                          Yesterday Tomlin said they are preparing to face Flynn. He doesn't seem to think Rodgers will play on Sunday.

                            I thought we needed the last 2 games...

                              I guess that settles it.

                              I worry about Rodgers being sharp for the Chicago finale if he comes back cold.

                                In Tony's scenario, the division comes down to the last game and the possibility that the Packers win the division at 8-7-1. A GB + Chi loss would give the Lions control of their destiny. The Packers get in without any help by winning the last 2.
