"GB locker room not mature enough to handle Moss"

[retailguy]

I can understand what Miller is saying and even agree with it. The Packers locker room is maturing, but I don't know what having a guy like Moss would do for the team. If Brett retires after this year, Randy would still be here. What's Randy gonna say when Aaron Rodgers is throwing up lame ducks game after game?

Not relevant when you consider that Moss wanted a ONE YEAR contract, is it?

[MJZiggy]

I thought we wanted to give him a one-year and he wanted more?

I thought we wanted to give him a one-year and he wanted more?

nope, backwards........Moss wanted one year, Thompson wanted two.

It makes sense for Moss, people are saying he is done, and just a shell of his former self. Moss obviously wants to prove them wrong. With the one year contract, if he manages to prove everyone wrong........imagine the money he makes on his next contract. He wont come cheap.

Yeah, a lot of people are going to be watching NE this year. Mainly because of Moss. Why would anyone outside of Wisconsin want to watch the Packers at all? The only big news surrounding this team that anyone cares about, would be the whole "is Brett going to retire after this year" crap.
While people will speculate that Moss would have been a bad influence on our young players the same thing had been said about Andre Rison, and Terry Glenn.
I am of the opinion, that having Moss on our team would have made our young guys try harder. I also think the extra media attention would have done the team a lot of good. Dont bother bashing my opinion, because I can fully understand why someone elses opinion would differ. Moss does have a history of being a cancer of sorts. I just like to believe that people can change for the better if put in the right situation. It seemed to work for other guys that had been labeled as a "problem child" in the past.

I don't know about Glenn, but the rison comparison is way off. The GB lockerroom had way to many vets: keith jackson, reggie, santana, sean jones, etc.

Rison was sincere in his desire to play with a winner.

I always contend that getting rid of him was a mistake. They thought he would cause problems being the third receiver. I say those problems woulda never materialized with the strong vet presence and being on a winner. Some players just can't handle losing.

I suggest everyone read the article about Randy Moss that appears in a new thread. It details the perceived "60% effort" Moss displayed in the Pats practice.

You may be grateful that Moss is "One who got away."

I just spent 200 something dollars again for NFL sunday ticket, in New England they hardly show any of the NFC north games...

Its usually the Pats, Philly, or Giants... Mainly all East Coast games...

But my NFL sunday ticket with HD/DVR on my nice DLP will solve that problem

That's worthy of its own thread!

I don't condone any of his past "behaviors", but when you really look at it, things have been very quiet on the Moss Front the last 1-2 yrs.

I think he was pretty disruptive in Oakland - hence the fire sale. The only quiet on the Moss front for the last 2 years has been his production.
