I have seen enough 30+ year old has been TEs coming to Green Bay for a lifetime.

There are plenty of ways to watch the Brewers. It literally isn't that hard if you want the games. Cable is an option, which again, almost anyone can get. If that doesn't work there is indeed Direct TV. If you wanted streaming there was ATT. Though their entire concept felt like cable. This is still ignoring the fact that there is a subscription service to watch the Brewers for $15 or $20. That you could pair with anything your heart desires and was month to month. You could have had FuboTV last year plus the Bally subscription for the same price as FuboTV with the price hike and RSN fee. Streaming options are better for the consumer. However, even better for streaming services is to keep their prices $20 cheaper by not carrying non football sports. Thats why they all dropped them. It wasn't worth the $20 price hike that FuboTV is doing. Most households do not care about RSNs.

This is exactly the problem with wanting a QB that legitimately could retire and not mind. You are going to go get the players he wants or he will just go chill at home. I didn't really find a problem with it when he did it to the Packers. End of the day the Jets can only blame themselves if it ends up badly. Their choice to get Rodgers and their choice to go sign all of those guys. If Rodgers doesn't have some buddies, he ain't going to play...that is his prerogative. I think the Jets are pretty dumb to go along with this though.

Not bizarre, everyone dies eventually.
-
This was never going to be quick. All the different teams had to decide if they wanted to pursue him, pursue other options, see what every option costed, etc etc etc. Even when the final option comes to be, the Jets, a lot of pieces to figure out. Money issues, draft compensation, player compensation. What if Rodgers needs to play with Bahk and the Jets don’t want him. What if he requires the Jets to go get Lazard? Possible they have to wait for FA to start so the Jets can make sure they can get some player Rodgers wants on offense. There is no way Rodgers is dragging his feet to spite the Packers, that I would be confident in.
-
Rodgers will hold up the QB market. Any Plan B is unlikely to move until Rodgers does something.
-
Not sure Favre is loved more than Rodgers at this point. Not after his whole tax fraud thingy. I also for the life of me don’t know why Rodgers really wants to play for the Jets…or why the Jets want him. Just weird.
-
Maybe with all the extra picks the Bears can draft a franchise QB. That would be a good start.
-
People were mentally married to Favre. Part of that is probably the farm boy relatable vibe, but probably largely due to the fact the franchise was nothing for a really long time before him. Clinging to Favre through his decline was just much more exciting because even a crummy Favre would have a cult following. I mean people ran out and became Jets fans and then later bought into the purple Vikings jerseys. Rodgers would probably have the same weird following if Favre never came before him. However, I doubt people go nuts to become Jets fans this time around. Also, the media and social media. I am not sure Favre would do too well in today's spotlight. It is just different times.
-
The Bucks can also be a perennial Conference finals team because of a single player and a half competent front office to fill out the rest of the roster. Money does not quite as easily buy success as it does in the NBA.
-
Sure, they could bounce back. Part of the problem though is #1 the past few years doesn’t exactly scream well run. Not sure they are a disaster, but it hasn’t exactly been smooth. Also #2 Love has been waiting years and looks to be passable. While that’s good, if it turns out he is decent, but not great…we are going to spend years not having top picks for a QB. Also, I think there is a notable difference between a true Super Bowl contender like we have been…and being a weird fringe team with a non Top 5 QB that still dreams/thinks they can win. The later is much more likely to end in a Super Bowl…almost required. That being said I do think the league is different and the league may not have the insane QBs of Rodgers generation. It just feels, outside of honestly Mahomes, the QB position becomes much less special than it did with Manning/Brady/Rodgers/etc. trotting out there every year.
-
Honestly, I don’t think they do. And I don’t think people realize if Love isn’t the answer they are going to get this cold harsh reality of Packers and Super Bowl won’t be even slightly muttered for a decade. I am fine moving on, but the future isn’t exactly what everyone has been used to for a quarter century…and I don’t think some really grasp that.
-
Just because they gave him permission to talk with the Jets doesn’t mean their preference is to move on. At the end of the day whatever Rodgers wants to do is basically what they have to do. If he wants to go to the Jets, strong holding him to stay isn’t going to get us anywhere positive in the short or long term.
-
We actually don’t really know how he was treated. We handled all three the same. Two of them decided to avoid arbitration completely and the other decided to test his luck…then lost and then pouted. You aren’t really wrong about all three almost surely about to be on their way out though. At least with Adames/Woodruff someone can have a pipe dream it is possible to sign them (not me though).

Article: Despite New Restrictions, The Shift Lives On
MrTPlush replied to Caswell's topic in Brewer Fanatic Front Page News
Shift was never going to die…but surprised to see this. I’m guessing teams will heavily try it out in ST and see what the results are. There is a big drawback…but still unlikely players will try to adjust and take advantage. Saying, “Oh just hit it to LF and get a triple.” isn’t how it works. Anyone who has played baseball knows just hitting it the other direction isn’t simple and trying to change your approach to do so can actually have a negative impact in the grander scheme. Still, I can’t see this becoming common occurrence. If this goes wrong a guy is going to second…maybe even third. This even opens up a huge hole in the power alley in RF too, not just LF -
Getting drafted by the Packers has to be this guys absolute worst nightmare.
-
$200mil for a guy who strikes out almost 30% of the time and failed to manage a .300 OBP last year? A small market cannot afford to take that risk. I’d rather throw $50mil+ at Jackson Chourio.

I’m not comparing it specifically to driving a car and hurting people. Simply that rosters are full of guys with criminal records playing in the league. Many of which have domestic violence and stuff like that. Also, he didn’t kill anyone. He was not behind the wheel, he didn’t hit the other driver off the road. The other vehicle crashed due to the poor driving decisions and extreme level intoxication of the other driver. If street racing another car left you subject to being responsible for the lives in the other vehicle I’m sure he would have gotten charged with it. Instead he got what he did, reckless driving and street racing. Also, I never said he didn’t commit a crime, I don’t know where you got that notion. Dude is an idiot, no doubt.
-
Loads of guys make incredibly dumb and illegal decisions…many of which actually hurt people (directly themselves) and intentionally hurt them to boot. That was the point. Not that other guys are also involved in speed racing in Athens, Georgia the day after a championship parade with a 2021 ford expedition involved at 2am with a full moon reflecting off the windows onto the sidewalk. He directly wasn’t the one that killed anyone and didn’t have a .20 BAC while killing them. How much should he be responsible for someone else’s epically dumb decision? A team is rolling the dice drafting him, sure, but NFL rosters aren’t short on guys with criminal records…many of which include charges much worse than reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident.
-
I’d draft him. Not like this type of stuff doesn’t fit in with what loads of guys do every year in the NFL. Probably wouldn’t even get suspended.
-
I think the Cardinals may have Washington beat. Treatment of Families : F Nutrition: F- Weight Room: F- Training Room: F- Locker Room: F The only things that received good grades were the staff and the travel. For staff it really isn't saying much as only 5 occasions in those two categories was a team a C+ or worse.
-
The Rodgers saga is honestly just comical at this point. Every day is like three new ridiculous articles all with differing opinion. No matter how much Rodgers says they are all a bunch of garbage the entire world runs with each one like he is going to play for the Packers, be traded, and retire all during the 2023 season. *Rodgers has connecting flight through EWR* Media: "Rodgers trade to New York Jets is near completion!!!!"

Nope, won't let you...not on Google. I believe there might have been a way to forget all the WiFis on each individual device, change the password, and then reconnect them without a factory reset. However, that really doesn't make it any more convenient in the grand scheme as I didn't have any custom settings to avoid resetting. Most of my smart lights are through a different 'hub', but it connects into the Google Home. Same deal though. Had to forget every single light and sensor to reconnect. No other way around it.
