You can spot a sucker if you walk into an abode and see it hanging on the wall

[Babybluejeans]

This really isn't controversial to any Packer fan or anyone who has purchased stock before.

It's not stock but you're right—for the folks too dim to see the fix, there's no reason to question the practice.

Packer stock has voting rights . If some clever group got together to organize the stockholders to vote in New Management . It would take some shrewd lawyering and might take a few voting cycles but it can be done.

I walked by a car the other day that had a sticker with the Packers logo with "owner" in large letters and "shareholder" in small letters. My wife and I laughed. I doubt actual team owners drive an Outback.

Current stock offerings are so watered down that all power rests with owners of the original shares.

There are no team owners.

Lol y'all are really mad about packers stock?

[cheebs09]

I know it's a little silly. I bought a share for my daughter today. To me it's a fun aspect of being a Packer fan.

I like to think most Packer fans don't take it too seriously. I've spent $300 on way dumber things. It's a fun thing to hang in the basement. Maybe I'll go to a Shareholders meeting with my daughter to show her Lambeau. For most, I don't think it's really more than that.

I respect this answer, especially in regards to your daughter and utilizing the sale to take her to the meeting. I think that's awesome.

Do people who buy/own really think about it anyway other than this? My aunt bought me a share during one of the sales back when I was a kid. It's a silly but kinda neat little thing about the fandom/community.

There's a silly aspect to most every fanbase in one way or another. Life's way too short to go karen-ing to the SEC because the packers sell stock.

There are no team owners.

Jerry Jones and David Tepper might disagree with that.

[Jockey]

What fix is there to see? Everyone knows what they are paying for. I don't understand why anyone would pay hundreds of dollars for this. But I also don't understand why people spend their money for many, many other worthless things.

[Jockey]

Jerry Jones and David Tepper might disagree with that.

Um..., he was talking about Green Bay.

[Jockey]

Because selling a stock implies a share of ownership or equity, which this "stock" contains absolutely none of. Just call it fundraising—a really sad thing for a successful professional sports team to do (especially given the many other useful places people could direct funds). It's the sort of gimmick you'd expect from a WWE enterprise, not a storied sports franchise.

Do you not understand the meaning of fraud? Nothing is under-handed. The team is100% honest about what they are selling.

[Billy Hoyle]

Um..., he was talking about Green Bay.

Yeah, and I was talking about some bro in an Outback who advertises himself as an NFL team owner.  But, BLM is gonna BLM.

Your post made no sense then.

[Jockey]

Yeah. That's why you mentioned Jones and Tepper by name.

You do realize everyone can see your last post?

Your obsession with me is clouding your ability to think critically.

As I said, what actual team owners drive Outbacks? BLM felt the need to say there are "not actual team owners" and you're defending him for claiming there are no team owners in the NFL.

The discussion has been about the Green Bay Packers.  You claimed their owners do not drive an Outback.  I'd agree, given that they don't have owners.  You then brought up the owners of the Cowboys and the Panthers.  Did they put $300.00 down for a slip of Packers paper?  Cool, if true.

I mean, if Mark Davis can be seen zipping around Vegas in a minivan and Mini Cooper, why can't an NFL owner drive an Outback?

Baker Mayfield is the latest athlete and/or celebrity to try to put a stop to the execution of Death Row inmate Julius Jones in Oklahoma.

It's pretty simple, really ... if one believes in the rule of law and in all lives mattering, one cannot be a proponent of the death penalty. Period.

And that's times 1,000 when the person on Death Row might actually be innocent, as is certainly possible here.

[forgetful]

Mac Jones and Trevor Lawrence are a good case study in how the system and team impact the perceived quality of a QB.

Interesting side question. What would Tampa Bay look like with Lawrence, and Jacksonville with Brady?

One would be worse and one would be better.

Re: System and team and Mac Jones, it was the same system and much the same team, offensively speaking, they had last year in New England, and Cam looked like trash. No doubt Jones is in a better situation than the other rookie QBs, but he's also been really good. The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

Governor, under pressure, commuted the death sentence. Now life in prison without parole.

May mean nothing but covering their bases, but semi-interesting...
