I expected more actually. With the quotes of him going off the field celebrating that he knocked Favre out of the game.

Part of the severity is that he was obstructing the investigation. I don't see any reductions for this.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

My guess is that they'll have a roster exemption for those 8 weeks. And everyone but Vilma is allowed to participate in offseason stuff. So I wouldn't cut him before week 9 -- if you cut him and only re-signed him then, my guess that is when the 8 week suspension starts.

Green Bay Packers DE Anthony Hargrove will be able to participate in offseason workouts, training camp and preseason games before his eight-game suspension begins.

Unlike many, I was expecting Hargrove to be suspended. But I was expecting 2-4 games.

Goodell ain't got a small hammer these days.

I wonder why nothing happened to the rest of the "22-27 involved players" (the number that got quoted over and over).

I knew he was gonna get a punishment when Goodell cited Peyton lied and tried to cover things up as a reason for the extra hard punishment.

Reportedly the reason the other players weren't punished is because the NFL doesn't have anything citing they promoted the program nor took part in it. Where they feel they have proof these players have.

Though I have to admit it is disappointing that only two players currently on the Saints got in trouble IF they were doing this as a program as a whole defense.

But I agree with the other part... the Packers can keep him until week 9... and then choose what they want to do with him. If they keep him, they'll have to find a spot for him... but if someone gets badly injured they could just put that player on the IR and have Hargrove fill the spot. Or they could cut a player that isn't living up to his spot. Or just cut Hargrove... he signed a one year deal so he might not be back after this season, where other guys might longer contracts.

After what we took in the draft, I could care less what we do with this guy.

Well the good news is that both our games against the Sperm helmets are in the second half of the season. Anthony will be fresh, and we already know he hates the color purple.

I hoped the fine would be 3-4 games but expected more. Outside of Federal court (He should file in Minny, they a sniveling wimps when it comes to the little man's rights vs the big back corporation up there.) he has no chance for a reduction with Goodell doing the appeal work for his own punishment.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : 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.

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 (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!
