Who the hell is Scott Polacek?

Duh, Mrs. Polacek's son, aina?

Seems like Watson going to be a featured player this season for The Packers

Good.  He said that about Rodgers in 2008

[Herman Cain]

I thought Josh Meyers was a mistake. There was a much better center from Oklahoma , Creed Humphrey ,available at the time, who has become an All Pro Center  for the Chiefs

I also remember thinking Sam Okey was a mistake over MJ, Darko a mistake over Wade, and Oden over Durant.

Sam Bowie.  Sam Okey was the kid from Cassville who played at UW then transferred to Iowa. He would have been about 8 when MJ was drafted.

Yup you're right.

Which makes it even more obvious that MJ should have been drafted before an 8-year old.

Good call. Even 4.5 years away from being born I knew MJ should go ahead of 8 year old Oakey.

Packers are in a state of denial. Kickers who cant make field goals in practice rarely start to make them during the season

Putting all their hopes this season in Carlson is going to be a disaster.  Mark it down.  He had major accuracy issues at Auburn.  Why they're letting Crosby sit unsigned is stupid, arrogant, and stubborn and will cost them for sure.

Could be. But you can also pivot at any point.

I own it now. If I'm wrong, so be it and it will be good for the Packers.

Oh, I was referring to the Packers. Crosby is just hanging out there and there's no harm at trying to see if the upside can hit

Gotcha GB W.  That's a good point, it's a calculated risk.  But Crosby probably won't be on the street much longer is my guess once teams are a game or two into their preseasons and realize their kickers are no good.  Hard to find reliable kickers in this league.

I just think they're playing with fire a little counting on a rookie who had a highly inconsistent college career.  I would stow Carlson away on practice squad and let him develop and not expect/hope he's the guy from day 1.
