Bugerfligel! Stop with the F'ing negativity! We should make a board just for Wist and call it the Our Team sucks board! C'Mon we are the best football team in Green Bay! We don't have to wear purple, we dont have Millen as a GM and we dont have to Claim the Fridge as an ex player. There are a lot of good things about this team and after we go on a nice little 5 game run you will come around!

That said, they're right about the Packers for the most part... this is a bad football team. Yes, it's a young team and they'll improve as the season goes on; but, right now the Packers are, in fact, one of the two or three worst teams in the NFL.
I hardly think that's a revelation.

Well its hard to argue that logic. One thing I will say for Wist, he's consistant and accurate most of the time.Originally posted by Tony OdayBugerfligel! Stop with the F'ing negativity!

Is this only b/c the Packers are supposed to be a bad team? IOW, when the Packers were a good/great team, I bet you loved to hear them praise the team...Originally posted by FritzFor once I agree with Mike Ditka. I've cut way, way down on my sports talk show listening because it's just people blabbing. The "experts" that are interviewed, and the hosts, who are supposed to be experts, don't know any more than you or I.
It's important to realize that regardless of the Packer's record year-to-year - the same experts will be talking bad about other bad teams and praising the ones the 'deserve' it. Frankly, since being around here for less than a year, I realize how lucky we really were to be around for those years. I also realize that sports writers don't know as much as they appear to and many of you/us here have a far deeper knowledge of the Packers and football in general.The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

Is it too early to start debating who the Packers should take in the 2007 NFL Draft? I have a hard time not going Brady Quinn. I also like Ted Ginn JR. because he would be the best returner in the league, and a deep threat option as a WR. I still wouldn't take Ginn in the Top 10, unless he has a great year catching the rock and running crisp routes and beating coverage. I also like that defensive end from Georgia, Quentin Moses, but he is still a little wet behind the ears. I would also be high on Gaines Adams from Clemson, but I simply hate Clemson players, especially Clemson defensive linemen. but anyways if the Packers are picking high in the 2007 draft, I think they need to consider defensive end, quarterback, running back, and wide reciever. I know the offensive line is weak right now, but there has to be hope for guys like Spitz and Colledge, and even Moll. I don't see how drafting younger players for the offensive line is really going to help at this point. He have the talented youth, we just don't have any god damn experience.

His name is Jeff Samardzija, he is a white boy, and he is also a top rated starting pitcher in college baseball, so there are chances that he will give up football if he is drafted high in the MLB draft in June.Originally posted by Tony Odaytake that WR out of ND I cant even attempt to spell his name

If we're talking about an early first round pick, we're talking about drafting a possible difference maker. At this point, we really need a running back or a stud defensive lineman. Our D-line doesn't look that bad, but there are no potential superstars there. If we want a dominating defense in the future, we need a lineman (DE or DT) who can create havoc.

This is who the Pack should get in the draft if they get lucky (or unlucky) enough...

Does the opinions about the Pack from people outside of the Packer Nation really surprise anyone? They played like a team that should be ranked near the bottom of the league last week. Like Wist, I think the Pack will improve, but the negative press we're getting shouldn't raise any eyebrows.

I must stand in defense of brother wist. He earned my never ending gratitude when on the old JSO board he was the only one agreeing with me that the defenses ranking for last year was a pile of horsebleep.Originally posted by Tony OdayBugerfligel!

This was after many of the clear eyed posters we see had left JSO in search of trouble free message boards.
wist must be heard, even if its damn depressing.
And the beating a dead horse graphic is the best.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

i dont disagree with espn at all... do i think the raiders are worse than us? yep. do i think we're going to get better. you bet!
but come on, we looked horrible against a good team. time will tell.
im in the 50/50 school that never wants my team to lose but something tells me that a 7 win season isn't really going to help anyone. except for, perhaps, my post-game alcohol problem when they lose.

This is funny. Everyone here should have known we were going to have a hard time with DaBears Sunday. Their strength, the pass rush, is our weakness, our young offensive line. We will be fine. This loss was inevitable, but, as the season progresses, and our o-line learns the scheme and gels, we will be a very good second half team, and the addition of Robinson will help greatly. We are headed in the right direction, and I believe we will still win at least 8 games this year."...one thing about me during the course of a game, I get emotional and say things my grandmother lets me know about later.
