R.I.P. Kevin Greene

[GB-Brandon]

I can just about guarantee Clay Matthews took Steroids based on his production falling off a cliff when things got hot about that and he has long hair. What’s gonna be the verdict on him when he croaks?

Clay and AJ Hawk both had long hair.

While we're at it, are we also including players with long dreads or braids that hang out the back? Just asking if Al Harris and some of those guys should be included.

RIP Kevin Greene.

[George Cumby]

People at his age have heart attacks all the time. The guy was never in trouble with the law. He was a walk on in college and worked his way to the NFL to a HOF career and is noted as being a good family man. In fact he left the Packers coaching staff to spend more time with his family at that time. He was raised in a military family as well and was always respectful to authority and his coaches. In fact he was in the National Guard while playing with the Rams his first couple seasons and served in the offseason driving tanks.

Did he have a bit of a crazy and wild demeanor? Absolutely!!! And that’s what Fucken made him great!!! It’s exactly what the Packers need on defense!!! Give me as many Kevin Greene’s as possible!!!

Some of this talk is just ridiculous. Steroid use was pretty common when he played so who knows but to sit here and crap on him is mind blowing. You would think he was like Aaron Hernandez reading some of this stuff!! Geez!!

Nice post.

See what happens when you put your fishing gear away?

Im not close, not even approaching at all so worry about yourself.

I always try to take up for you Tex. I do. But you piss on someone’s grave because he has long hair? You dog your brother because he smokes? We all got our end coming.

So what should we do when you croak? Do we talk about how you always stood by your beliefs even if we didn’t agree? How you always said positive things about the Packers. How you had heart for the team thru the years always, even when losing?

Or do we talk about how classless you could be at times and say you deserved your end because you probably have gone to Thailand to fuck minors or some other lewd acts?

“Hahahahaha” your way out of that one.

Is it pissing on somebody's grave to say he probably brought it on himself? And as I said, the thing that irritated me about Greene was that people were actually promoting him for D Coordinator, a thinking position. Sure, he was a motivator, which some people apparently think is the only thing that counts, but he sure as hell wasn't coordinator material. The hair thing was a minor annoyance compared to that.

Without getting into the unmentionable area, my brother has always been on the wrong side of things for many decades. And hell yeah, I say again, anybody who fucks up his life smoking, steroids, hard drugs, whatever ain't gonna get any sympathy from me. I honestly don't give a shit about what any mental midgets think about me - now, much less 4 or 5 decades from now when I finally kick off.

And you, the main man around here, actually stoop to echoing some of the sickest worthless pieces of shit around here? I woulda thought better of you.

Texas is right. It's not shitting on a thread to bring up a PED conversation.

[Vincenzo]

What happened to him?? Been keeping a close look out to see if it actually was something with the ticker.

[smuggler]

Best post you've ever made, Brandon!

Massive J, mentioning the PED use was only one part of Tex's commentary. Though you are correct that it's fair game.

And the sign said
"Long-haired freaky people
Need not apply"
So I tucked my hair up under my hat
And I went in to ask him why
He said, "You look like a fine upstandin' young man
I think you'll do"
So I took off my hat and said, "Imagine that
Huh, me workin' for you"
Whoa

And the sign said:
"Everybody welcome, come in and kneel down and pray"

Over rated. That was always my verdict on him. Also should have been an ILB, not OLB.

Roids? No idea if kevin took them, but you have to abuse them to damage the heart. A lot of "health experts" use roids as part of anti aging protocol. Testosterone is nice, but it won't give you the lean build and fat destruction that a shot of Winny V will. Like many things Roids are a net benefit...until you decide you need 24" biceps. Then they become a negative.

Exactly, unless your stacking massive cycles for long periods of time and adding human growth hormone it’s highly unlikely Kevin Greene had a heart attack due to any PED’s.

The Bottom line on Kevin Greene as a football player had nothing to do with whether he took roids or not. Yes, Roids would of helped him be able to compete physically but Kevin Greene could “Go To That Place.” It’s the Place I take about frequently when talking about defensive players and their success. His ability to “Go To That Place” mentally is what made him great and a HOF player. Not a steroid.

Being a HOF player isn’t as simple as taking a STEROID. See Tony Mandarich.

The Packers drafted the biggest Fraud Roider of all time. LOL!!!

If anyone should know what “Roider fraud” is it should be Packer Fans!!!

Matthews was totally overrated. Had a couple good seasons and then became a marketing icon.

Dude couldn’t stay healthy with nagging injuries and literally over pursued half the plays he was out there for.
