I would like to point out again to the naysayers that the Packers had all these same “holes” last season and went 15-1.

TT can only build a team capable of winning a championship. He can’t do the coaching or playing that it takes to get there.

Obviously, the Packers were plenty capable of winning it, and will be again this year.

The reference to Reggie White is comical. Free agency was a completely different animal back then. Nearly all of our free agent pick ups were veterans nearing the end of their careers. Reggie was also in his 30s, though in today’s market he still would have broken the bank.

It’s easy to second-guess TT, but he’s got AR, CM3 and GJ contracts to re-do this season. Would anyone like to see an unknown FA be signed, overpaid (as most FA’s are) and then not have the cash or the cap space to do the contract to keep one of the big 3 around?

The guy knows what he’s doing and there’s a reason his fucking hair is white.

Are you seriously shitting on Ted Thompson a year after a Super Bowl win? Free agency is a piss-poor way to build a team…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………Were not building a team, were plugging holes, or trying to…Before free agency we had 3 holes, pass rusher, safety?. and LT…Sorry Boys…Newhouse has feet dried in cement, and Sherrod couldn’t beat out Newhouse. So now, we need a center (who TT knew would probably be gone 2 years ago. Bad planning?….Bad OL draft picks? Bad development of back up players not getting it done…whatever, you cant fill all those holes in 1 draft year. Without free agency, and Reggie White, We may not have won the 96-97 SB. Anyone recall a free agent signing of Charles Woodson…..Your right, free agency isn’t the way to build a team….But J C…TT?….Show us your still breathing……..SAY something, to anyone, anywhere.

The Apollo Creed comparison is a little out there but Ted typically does have his thumb up his ass in free agency. Usually it is with purpose and I think Monty gets that as well.

It’s a big joke on Twitter that there are Green Bay football writers taking their vacation time during free agency week. Except it’s not a joke….they really do.

I take (most of it) Monty’s comments with a high level of “it’s fun to rip on the boss no matter what.”

In my opinion if we don’t make a big move up in the draft and get some pass-rushing help, next season’s defense will give up more yards than last.

I have nothing but respect in Ted…but he seems to be digging a bit of a hole in my opinion.

I definately read this site less and less because of things you write Monty. You just have some arbitrary ideas. Maybe you do it to spark poeple’s comments?
