  • Talked to someone connected with the Packers training staff

    I don't mean to be vague here but I ran into a person who was closely connected with the Packers training. I didn't ask too many questions but the one that I did ask IMO was a pretty interesting one.

    I asked if the Packers use HGH or other performance enhancers and the response I got was a generally uncomfortable one but it was this..

    Okay, I read this twice, but it still lacks any coherency to me.

        Small bit of info and a lot of blabber by me I guess.

          The quote lacks any real substance but if you would have been there seeing the body language it was like the person was suprised and disappointed in what happened...

          LOL...Sorry if it's unclear I can't really twist a quote.

              Everyone on the team is "very arrogant" besides Favre and Driver? Wow, that covers a lot of people that are stuck up. I know you can't tell much by TV interviews and the like but guys like AJ Hawk, Greg Jennings, Poppinga..seem pretty down to earth but who knows I guess.

              Maybe this trainer just has an inferiority complex or something.

                I guess I'm just dumb, but I didn't even understand Greg's two "clarifications" much less the original post.

                Maybe you could tell us which way he was "shaking his head"? Or, is that asking too much?

                    Shook head in disappointment was the body language...



                    Me "Did players do HGH or performance enhancers?"

                    Person "I just shook my head *in disappointment at the activity*"

                    The second part I got from body language and although body language is a large part of communication it is also something that is largely considered subjective...

                    That's how it came off too me. Maybe others aren't as interested in performance enhancers but I really am. It's funny; even after the fact I'm still happy that, that was the only question I asked of real substance. It might not mean much to you guys but that is the best I can do to explain it. They person shook their head in disgust or disappointment at activity related to performance enhancers.

                        So was this what it was like when you found out there is no Easter bunny and that Santa didnt bring gifts down the chimney? :P

                        Seems that players might be thinking along the lines of "if you can't beat em, join em".

                          Maybe he was shaking his head in disappointment at you for asking a question like that.....???

                            No Ras, there were 2 of us that got it on first read. I figured they were messing with him until like 4 people said they didnt understand.

                            Here:

                            When asked if Packer players took HGH, the unnamed source said "I just shook my head in disappointment at some of the things I saw"

                            The quotes denote what the person in question said.

                              He edited the original post extensively. The original didn't read anything like the edited version.
