Some ESPN show, audibles or something, they said the Packers have the best locker room in the NFL.

I like what I read. Finley is starting to show maturity that he seemed to lack in the last year. I also appreciate that even though Finley is a bright star on our offense, Rodgers is not afraid to criticize him for messing up on a successful play.

When I saw the title of this thread I groaned and thought "Oh, christ. What now?" but instead was pleasantly surprised.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Rodgers has handled PR very, very well. He was "thrown into the fire" with the Favre situation, handled that extremely well and continued on from there. Hopefully, Finley continues to m ature with age. He has gotten better but to me the situation seems like a time bomb. I fear it'll explode. I hope all my angst is for naught. T-Mike is such a talent I hope he develops the drive to be the best he can be. No reason he shouldn't be able to end up in the HOF, outside of injury. He has the talent and he has the talent(Rodgers) getting him the ball.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

He has shatterred the legacy of Favre, because he is everything that Favre's ego would not allow Favre to become.

I haven't heard anything about him being lazy in the weight room or not being a hard worker. The last aspect of becoming better is studying and asking questions. I think that his link to Larry Fitzgerald over the summer shows a ton of what we are looking for: that he is still a student and has a hunger for football knowledge to further increase his talent level.

loved Aaron Rodgers calling him out on the miscue.
Loved JMike's reply.
All is well in the Golden City.

Keep in mind that Aaron and the coaching staff pointed out the misplay by the rookie Cobb that also lead to a TD. They just want to make sure the players tighten things up and are on the same page which is an impossible task for all 11 players to be on the same page for every single play. Nevertheless Mike can expect it and push for it and Aaron as his field general can echo that goal.

beast (11h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley
