So, old school, way back, Pack is king! But, we live in a world of "what have you done for me lately?"  And, looking at coaches & general managers, and owners, WHO is doing it?

You NEED to be careful.  Change for the sake of change does not always work!  Coaches - QB's - etc.  So, change carefully, maybe one position at a time!

The Packers are unique!  No owner, shareholders.  This is a different situation!  In our case, change is slow!  Good news, you do NOT have one crazy owner just hiring and firing because he had a bad day!  But, slowwwwwww change!

Top on the Packer shareholder list - Ted Thompson, our general manager.  Let see what fresh blood can do to help this team for the next 4-5 years!  Until that, you will see the same old Packers.

Aaron running around, winning 31-28 games.

Injuries every week.

And, Packer fans getting close to a Super Bowl, but not enough to finish!

Bye Bye Ted!  You are old enough to retire - enjoy the beaches of Green Bay!
