Mother Mary Of Jesus... Some football fans freaking amaze me.

Based on what I read on many football forums, many posters... smack their 5 year old child for spilling their milk, Scream at the wife if the eggs are not as tasty as when they were first married.

How about one fucking post here stating... Clay has been a trooper, has a great attitude. Has been unselfish, Did not go to the press about loss of personal sack stat numbers to take one for the team and move inside last year.

Clay has been a consummate teammate and team player for his teammates in the locker room, for the Packers organization, and for every single Packer season ticket holder and fan of the team.

However..... That all means shit, it means fuck all actually, for the "What have you done for me lately mind set of a true non loyal and disrespectful fan of their team."

He's already proven throughout his entire career that he is the most valuable player on the Packers defense.

I'm worried about his transition back to OLB this season. I think his best position is inside, where he truly can be a game changing player, more than a player who maybe gets 15 sacks in a season, but disappears for long stretches of time. I think some of his skill-set is somewhat wasted unless he moves around frequently.

I thought his contract was ridiculous when he signed it. Thompson loves overpaying linebackers.

The main reason why CM3 hasn't been as versatile as before is because the opposing defenses only target him & double team him.

Asides him on defense there's no threat to the opposing QB.

The fact of the matter is that paying players the kind of coin Clay makes hurts the rest of the team because they all have to take less. Clay needs to keep being superman or else its going to be what have you done for me lately. I'm sure he realized this when he signed the contract.

If other guys want that kind of money, they can improve their craft so as to deserve it. Clay is probably damaging his long term wellbeing, not just by playing football but also by juicing to maximize on field performance.
