Packers next receiver? KOREN ROBINSON???

[Rastak]

Lay off the guy a bit, I know somebody that used to an alcoholic and it was hell within their body for them. They know they shouldn't drink, but they can't stop. I can only imagine what is for him. I hope that he recovers from his problem, and this time, put it away for good, if that is even possible.

In regards to what TT is doing, maybe it's a deal in principle. Knowing that Koren will probably be suspended for the rest of the season, maybe TT comes to him like this: I'll gurantee you a contract in Green Bay next season, if you get through your rehab and get your problem sorted out.

Hey Ballhawk, nice post. This goes a bit beyond an alchohol problem though. Running from the cops at that speed is insane, but I'm guessing
not everyone cares if he might help the team....

[Rastak]

Awww Rastak, it was a freaken joke. yes, I know he started runing his career with alcoholism with Seattle. Maybe he didn't like the rain there?

I HATE the Vikings. So, I'm sorry that you come to a PACKER forum and read something against your team that you don't like.

Yea, I think I get it......but it ain't all that funny....that's all. Why all he hate anyway....LOL.....

I think the real question is whether the lifestyle of an NFL player is conducive to kicking alcoholism. You are away from your family for large periods of time, and you have a 4-5 month stretch during which you don't have to report to work.

because the Bears haven't given us any competion over the past decade and the Queens have

Seriously though, it's the fans mostly. I know, I know...there are good and bad fans from all teams...but it just seems like the past few years, the vikings fans that come here are just downright rude and disrespectful. Three years ago one of them keyed the entire hatchback of my Nissan Xterra because it was yellow and had personalized Packer plates. I saw the idiots who did it, but they ran off.....with their purple jackets on. It's just an incident that affected me personally, so I have a little more of a grudge I guess !

Hasn't Favre done well keeping his drinking in check? I don't know if he was ever considered an alcoholic though, not really apples to apples...

[digitaldean]

I am dumbfounded why TT would bring him in.

Don't think it's a matter of IF Robinson will be imprisoned AND sentenced, it's a matter of when.

Although I sympathize with someone struggling with alcoholism, I don't want him here.

He should have spent time getting someone like Willie Ponder in.

[BallHawk]

Rastak ain't like that, though, he's a good guy. The reason Rastak is so good is he hangs around us Packer fans, we have a positive influence on him.

Yea, that ain't cool.....although you will admit it was the Bears trolls that torched JSO last year, not Vikings fans. There were very few Vikings fans that were a total pain in the ass. Anyway, you can't judge a whole group by the actions of a few....

Not quite but thanks Ballhawk.....

[GBRulz]

Ok, aside from my banter with Rastak here ......

No, I don't want this guy here. if he wants to help out our team, fine. But first, suspend his ass like the rules say. Get him the help that he needs and THEN bring him in for a workout.

I think players in professional sports should be held at the highest standard when it comes to drugs and alcohol. As we all know, they are not. Society basically says that if you can play ball, the rules will bend for you to a certain extent.

Ol Pete Rose should have just snorted away instead of placing a bet - then at least he would be in the HOF.

Is KRob someone we would consider "Packer" people??

[GBRulz]

Oh, I totally agree Rastak. I know....but combined with the fact that the Vikes have been our main competition and not the Bears, it's easier to hate them

[GBRulz]

LMAO. Oh how I would love to hear a reporter ask that question IF he came here.

[MJZiggy]

Other Packer forums are saying that Robinson may not be suspended untill next year. If that is true, it would bring much needed help to the return game and the 3rd reciever spot.

Maybe not, but there's no guarantee about that and there's also no guarantee that he doesn't end up in jail before the end of the season either. I think that if Blackmon heals up as quickly as they say he is, we might be ok there, provided, of course, that he has as much talent as he flashed in May.

[falco]

I wouldn't trust Rastak and a set of keys within 50 feet of my car...
