Here is the blockbuster 'Can Of Worms ' Story on Green Bay Packer dysfunction.

[Fosco33]

It is relevant. Perception is reality. NFL is entertainment business and perceptions drive literally everything.

Murphy is still there. Aaron is still the QB. Young WRs are still there.

Hope LaFleur knows how to build and adapt a TEAM. That includes motivation, dealing with drama and issues, etc.
I sincerely hope but don’t expect Arod to be a ‘great’ leader. It’s readily apparent he’s a great QB but not interested in more than that.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

As for the Dunne story, the fact that Rodgers doesn't trust MVS, St. Paul (not a typo) and the 4th rounder (forgot name) makes the pessimist in me optimistic about DK Metcalf and Ridley Riley donning the Green and Gold next season.

Btw, Remember when I said that orangutans were smarter than Mike McCarthy (and Tony O'Day)? Or that McCarthy's resume without Favre and Rodgers includes killing Alex Smith's confidence, turning Aaron Brooks into a turnover machine and making Hundley a carbon copy of Kizer? Or that, while mental illness ain't a joke, Todd was the mother of incompetence?

Uncool Pack fans made fun of me. Called me a burger-flipping loser. This story ameliorates moi arguments.

Take it to FYI.

If Woody's funny comment about his "android Samsung iPad" was posted in FYI, it would go something like this:

Tex: Fuck Samsung. Anything that comes out of China is shit.

Partial: Yo Tex, want something awesome and totally American? Get an Apple.

31: Yo Partial, you realize that 99.9% of the shit Apple makes come out of China, right?

Wist: Apple and Samsung are colluding, and therefore conspiring, to monopolize the smart phone/tablet market.

Rand: If Ayn Rand were alive today, she'd get a sex change.

Tank Elf Duke: Wanna know what's an abomination? Cap---

Madtown: Shut the fuck up, Tank.

You forgot, Bobblehead; You know Apple has been stealing tech that they are contractually obligated to pay for from Qualcomm and its jeopardizing the future of US dominance.

Partial: Thats not true Bobble: link confirming everything he said Partial: Thats not true.

Word. I'll read the 100 pages or so stuff about Apple in FYI when time permits.

Media assholes spew the shit and imbeciles in here lap it up - sheeeeesh.

I support the Montreal Canadiens of the NHL and pay a lot of attention to TSN (The Sports Network) AM Radio 690. Monday through Friday the HABs are sliced and diced dissected. Fans observe every measure of analysis in ever
Sense.


We know the players, coachs and managemt and RULES and the officieating etc.

We certainly see it when something is wrong,

[Joemailman]

It was 2012, and the Packers were hosting the 49ers when, mid-timeout, cornerback Carlos Rogers playfully asked Jennings why he was running so many short routes.

"You know how it is," Jennings told him. "Contract year."

That's when Rodgers stepped in to say, per Jennings, "You guys should get him at the end of the year."

Come again?

Jennings walked back to the huddle speechless.

The next day, Jennings told his position coach, Edgar Bennett, he knew this was his last year in Green Bay. "That was my headspace," he admits

This sounds to me like Rodgers joking around. He used to do that in the good ol' days.

[pbmax]

Fuck the media idiots that spew all this shit as well as it shitheads that post it.

[pbmax]

speaking of jennings and why his attitude changed



they played the 49ers week 1

This quote is telling about Jennings as well.

Less than 3 quarters into the season and he is convinced the coaches are sending him on short routes to keep his contract numbers down. Its no wonder it got into his head.

[pbmax]

Maybe. Not necessarily. But I'd advise caution. Jennings has a history

My point is that what would be far more convincing is if a guy like Bacteria sat down and gave a measured view of the problems on the team, without being nasty. "Sure, Rodgers audibled off some Stubby calls. I guess that's what happens when a QB spends this many years in a system. You see things on the field that you think the Coach doesn't" or "Stubby was getting more distant in the past two years. He seemed more likely to be in the office than on the field tweaking plays. He seemed more defensive about his game plan, etc. etc. And he knows like everyone in football that if it comes to a power struggle between a HOF QB with the biggest contract in football and a coach, the QB is usually going to come out on top). Rodgers knows this too, so he has more freedom. That affects team dynamics."

Anyway, there's some stuff in there that rings true. I just don't buy all of it. But I want to know more about the masseuses.

The most recent folks to speak up were Jones who was disbelieving and Kuhn who was incredulous about the report.

Never knew my coach to get a massage instead of attending meetings and my QB never threw me under the bus. #justsaying

I agree.

In this scenario, to whom do I direct my comment that Samsung is a South Korean company?

Why don't you kids go outside and play for awhile?

[Bretsky]

I think my rant belongs here

Let's call a spade a spade. Sometimes the truth is painful to acknowledge. I am a huge fan of AROD as a player.

But read in between the lines and listen tot e Packer Beat guys who cover the team on and off the record. Here are some captain obvious viewpoints

Rodgers is smug. He's very intelligent but perhaps to a fault. And he's kind of an asshole as teammate to many. He's roll his eyes, call out players, and dress them down occasionally in practices. He's a know it all who a few teammates embrace but many do not. Brett Favre was embraced by all his teammates untl he really got old and was a generation ahead of the entire team. Rodgers is not there. Watch the mannerisms after each of them throw TD's. Rodgers is far better than Favre, but he's no Favre as a leader. It got to some point where Rodgers no longer respected McCarthy as a coach, changed plays at will, and avoided throwing many many slants when they were wide open. I hope Rodgers embraces Matty; but I want to see how this turns out several months, or a couple years in....I want to know if Rodgers thinks he's too dam smart to respect a coach....he was a real shithead to Mike McCarthy.

And on to Mike McCarthy. I don't know when it was; but he lost the players and the longer it went on the more bad conduct was overlooked....neglected....and not handled remotely appropriate. As a disciplinarian MM said the right things to the press, but was a fruitcake the past couple years of his rein. I also think Mike McCarthy is a high class person. Unlike AROD, he's a good human being. He discussed how he was let go, and pondered how painful it was for him to deal with player shortcomings. He was no longer successful as a head coach. But how he was let go seemed pretty heartless

On to my frickin Fave....MARCIA MARCIA MARCIA....you deserve the blame for a lot of recent failings on the Green Bay Packers. You were overseeing this ship as the talent dried up badly.
And you let it keep happening. if TT was occasionally dozing off, mentally becoming unhealthy, shame on you for not reacting right away. You take much blame for this all from talent. And when you fire a coach who won a Super Bowl for the Green Bay Packers, have at least a bit of a heart. Pulling him out right after the presser, showing no emotion or thankfulness for MM leading us to a SB. Cold and Nasty Marcia. I lack faith in you ability as a leader.

We're lookin like a Fart in the Wind and all three of these guys, along with TT, have plenty of blame

[Bretsky]

I hope Matty and AROD can connect; Down with Marcia !!
