  • I could be wrong, and this shit could all be true ...... but I doubt it, and I sure as hell am not gonna believe it because media trash says so. If it does happen, then the Packers are down the toilet for the foreseeable future, Gutekunst and maybe Murphy are to blame, and the good citizens of Green Bay should run them out of town, give them the treatment they gave Dan Devine' s dog for ruining the team.

    A week or a month from now, this shitstorm will all be over, and Rodgers will be extended for a decent amount of time.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

      This. No one in the organization would create this type of distraction immediately before the draft.

          Nobody happy with their job. Could be someone that's pissed they didn't get promoted or some shit.

              And have every major reporter be prepped and prepared on the topic to discuss as soon as the story broke. This was obviously coordinated.

              • The irony of the whole thing is if Rodgers really doesn't play for them, they're gonna go like 4-12 and be picking top 5 and probably take a better QB prospect than Love anyway lol. The Love Machine can't win lol.

                    You could give them a story about aliens rigging all the games and they'd all run with it just the same. No prep needed.

                      Agreed, neither side has tried to argue the situation doesn't exist. The Packers say they're working through it and are committed to Rodgers long term. Rodgers said he's disappointed the news came out.

                      How Tex takes all that info and thinks it's made up is mind boggling.

                      • Well, the dance has begun. I read this morning that Gutekunst said he's really disappointed that everyone's attributing this "I-want-Gute-Fired" to Arod - Gutes says he thinks it's unfair to Aaron.

                        So the strategy is clear: the Packers are going to try to bend over and accommodate Rodgers as much as possible without firing Gutekunst. So Gutekunst has begun with the above statement - poor Aaron! - as well as yesterday's admission that he should've handled the Love draft moment better (and he's right; he should well have known that giving Rodgers a heads-up was a courtesy Rodgers would expect and one that would cost nothing). So: conveniently blame the media, tell Aaron you fucked up the way the Love pick went down, and the next step will be most likely a contract extension that will be far above and beyond, in money and years, anything we could've reasonably expected. Only Tex will think such a contract right and proper. Rodgers will then come out and also blame the media for the stuff his side leaked out, and so everything will be papered over for a year or maybe two. But by participating in this, if I am right that this is the "strategy," the Packers are taking a real gamble.

                        At this point, the sloppy, public BJ has begun. Some will squirm and turn away from the spectacle; others, like Tex, will be mildly turned on.

                        • Interesting take Fritz. If it where me, I'd be killing Arod with kindness right up to the point I negotiated a fair deal or pulled off a massive trade. Worsening the public spectacle only hurts the Packers' position. The more of this taking the high road the Packers do, the worse Rodgers will look if he wants to drag them through the mud. We'll see.

                            By saying "poor arod" Gutes is challenging him to own it. Basically saying its not true at all and Arod would NEVER say something like that. Very smart. ARod won't publicly own it, so gutes saying its horseshit stands as the only truth.

                              But if Arod really does push this any much further, perhaps the Packers will start exploring the trade market before June kicks in, so they've got an out. But of course they have to do so very quietly.
