[USML Announce] Speaking of Failed Prospects....

You're damned right.  I spend most of every day muttering about that trade.  If I had done nothing other than NOT trade with Brad this year, I believe I would have won.  Seriously.

Did everybody notice how fast Jeffrey shifted to football after I mentioned the Trout trade?

Well, if you are looking for other times in more recent memory that “really matter,” I would say any time we play the Bears, and you already admitted Thursday night was a tour de force (for which he will be named NFC Defensive player of the week).

Jeff, does it bug you that ARod, Clay, and Raji are always on commercials?

Ancient history, my friend.

Fabio performed well, but definitely not “awesome” TWO YEARS AGO.  Let’s talk about recent history, like last year.  Yep….not so awesome.

That is all.  But it is reassuring to know that I can always get a rise out the Pack pack.  

…..waiting for John to chime in.

Oh, Jeffrey, I will file this under “desperate times call for desperate measures”…

1.  It was Finley’s agent, not Finley, who made the comments.

2.  Clay Mathews:  disappear when it really matters?  He was awesome in the Super Bowl, and in the NFC championship as well that year, when the Pack beat, as I recall, the Bears.  That is when it really mattered.

Keep trying.

Now that the silly furor over Jay Cutler's innocent bumping of a guy twice his size is out of the way, let's focus on some real news.   

Remember when Jermichael Finley was going to be the next great tight end in the NFL?  

Well, since he can't make news on the field, he's making news off the field.  Jermichael called out his QB as a bad leader.  Talk about a moron.  Looks like the ponytailed wonder isn't the stupidest guy on the Pack.  And just to beat Blocker to the punch - yes, Fabio looked pretty good last week in an early season matchup.  But he'll disappear when it really matters.  He always has and he always will.
