Re: Sharper's Take
Since TT gave him the boot he isn;t the most objective fellow.

Defensive, eh Rastak!? Can't blame you; too much time amoungst rivals gets the best ya eventually.Originally posted by Rastak
Sharper can say what he wants; he was actually hurt being cut from Packers. Sharper proved Packers were wrong; he can still be a difference maker, yet he can't cover sh!t. He wins games for you though.PackerRats Thompson D. Yahoo Fantasy Football Champ 2019,

Re: Sharper's Take
Yeah, we'd have to assume that.... obviously he's not worried about TT.Originally posted by Rastak
Here's his quotes that are relevant...
I guess what I meant by 'they' in my previous post refers more to Viking fans, media, etc. I hear every week some stupid GB rumor on Viking talk radio or read an article about GB's weaknesses that's not relvant to an upcoming divisional game.... The point being - don't point out the spec in someone else's eye before removing the plank from your own (in this case, the plank being the lack of a Superbowl...)"But it's one of those things, if you dig your grave, and the decisions you make. ... You're going to have to deal with the consequences."
"It's kind of hard to watch the guys I know. ... To have them not reap any benefits from their work, that's hard to watch. But as far as the people up top who make the decisions, I don't feel sorry for them. You all know who makes decisions over there."The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

I know where Fosco is coming from. It can be pretty unbearable around these parts--especially when the Packers are losing. There's a bit of an inferiority complex around here (mainly because of the history and the fact there's so many Packer fans in these parts), so any chance to rip the Packers doesn't get bypassed. Most Viking fans aren't made like Rastak--which makes him all the more enjoyable. That's just my perspective. I haven't been in anyone else's shoes.
Think the local reporter would have been asking Sharper a question if the Packers were winning. I don't."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

I'd say Sharper is having the last laugh. Is that Freeman guy TT signed to replace Sharper still playing in the NFL?Comment

Shaper is one of my all time favorite players. He always make plays when the team needs them and is a great leader on the defense. I was sad when he was let go and I love seeing him play well to this day, even if it is with the vikings.Draft Brandin Cooks WR OSU!Comment

Third time would be the charm....
4th and 27.... Packers is Superbowl... TD.. Sharper tripped on his shoe laces... Packers lose game....(oh wait we avoided the third one)
Sharper is a good player... But with one BIG play left, do I want him on the field???? HELL NO!!!!!Comment

I'd say he's mellowed a bit - he was pretty upset, and ready to piss all over the Pack right after he left.--

No kidding Pack 11. Sharper made MD think he was a good player. Sharper has more face time on less good football than anyone in the league.Originally posted by packers11yea... I kept telling myself that too.... O WAIT FLASHBACK....Originally posted by PaCkFan_n_MD

Sharper was never a favorite of mine, so I wasn't very disappointed when TT let him go. He made some big plays, but also gave up big plays, something a safety is supposed to prevent. That said, I didn't have a problem with anything he said in the article. He has some resentment toward the guy who let him go, which is understandable. He doesn't seem to hold any resentment toward anyone else. Packnut says Sharper got the last laugh. I didn't get the sense Sharper was laughing at anyone. I think he just wishes things had worked out differently.I can't run no more

Likeable personality or not, Sharper went to the Pro Bowl last year.
Compare his stats to Woodson's and TT's pledge that he is not going to overpay for free agents rings pretty hollow.
Sharper in 10 years:
137 games 518.0 tackles 149 assists 6 sacks 45 ints 7 TDS
Woodson in 9 years:
108 games 394.0 tackles 74 assists 5.5 sacks 17 ints 2 TDSComment
