This is my first post in this forum. So far from what I have read , it is more progressive than the one I just left. I find it refreshing that opinions are voiced, intelligently, and all seem to have a voice here. I will add my voice to this song as well.
I am very excited about most of what I see in the 2014 Packers, however I also see areas that IMO need improvement. I will be posting about both.
I like the format in this forum, but like the Packers, I will from time to time make comments improve it. I welcome making new friends, and will try not to start an enemies list. One thing that I've found that works well in other forums is the ability to "IGNORE" the post of members that one finds offensive.
The smileys in here are great, I salute this forum in this area ! [twocents]

Things that may be considered "offensive" usually political/religious/blah is regulated to the "back alley" forum.

But if you just want packer talk, your in the right hole.

As far as the Packers Defence is concerned, it is currently one of the leagues worst at giving up points. The bottom line is to score more than your scored on. The heart of the problem is the heart of the D-line, the Nose Tackle. The next man up philosophy just aint working (or at ROT either). Yet we hear the winning of " we don't have the cap money".
If a more flexible strategy were possible, we could have the cap money and get the players the team needs. Other teams do it, look at the teams that do it well, they have deep second and sometimes third team players that really can step up. [duh]

This is more of a "welcome" type post, so I moved it into the appropriate section and gave it a awesome flashy neat title! 🙂

This was done so you can have the proper welcome and it doesn't get swallowed up by that silly Packers discussion stuff! [grin1]

Welcome aboard! And Laser, thank you. Yes, we are quite open with opinions here and regardless of a few turds, we DO NOT attack the person, but rather we target the OPINION as that is the goal of discussion.

That is funny Smokey. I will try and be worthy of your applause in the future.

Side note-

Whenever I see or hear the name Smokey I think of my old uncle's dog Smokey. It was a rather large German Shepard and he was a pretty neat dog. Pretty smart too.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : Saints have agreed to terms on a contract with former Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown.
