Is there a reason this guy continues to put a white guy as "Odell?"
Oh yeah, Karen’s of the NFL Twitter world trying to out Aaron for breaking covid quarantine last week being in California. Been a pretty popular, albeit very new meme going around.


Clearly tickling my funny bone 😂

Trying to build a meme about a silly and quickly debunked rumor that this random guy was AR who had traveled to California in violation of COVID rules. :idn:
Gotcha. I only watch stocks and Packers. So anything main media I usually don't know about

OBJ is a spoiled brat. I rather lose with EQB than win with this clown. And I am positive that TT would approve this message.

Rodgers is my celebrity doppelganger, or at least used to be. One time the staff at the Wausau Applebees thought I was him and they kept trying to get a look until they figured out I was just a random guy, at which point they told me. I think he just has one of those faces where it's easy to find lookalikes.

We all know Odell is going to drag this out for dramatic effect and then his father is gonna post a highlight tape of Odell with Odell wearing his new teams jersey crappily photoshopped.

But what number will he get? That is the important question.

I am beginning to like the idea. Lazard can start his transition to TE and by playoff time the Packers will have a legitimate receiving TE who can block.

With guys like Kyle Pitts playing TE now (guy who really just looks like a jacked WR), and a guy like Big Dog on the roster who can really focus on doing the dirty work that a TE typically does...I wonder if the move you suggest would not only be good for the Packers, but also for Lazard and his next paycheck.

I honestly have no idea what his market will be once he hits free agency. He is a good teammate, good blocker for a WR, but very average in almost all categories that involve playmaking, getting open etc.

Getting some games on tape for other teams where he shows he can block and run routes from the TE position may very help be the best move for his wallet.

At the combine he was 6045 and 227. I suspect he is over 230 now. Gaining even 5 pounds puts him into TE range and I doubt that affects his speed or quickness very much. Very average speed and quickness for a WR is at the top of the chart for a TE.

He dropped 10-15 pounds 2-3 years ago.

I won‘t sell certain values for success and in OBJ‘s case it is even worse because the guy is A LOT reputation and (lately) little show. Of course if it works and we win it all you will not see me complaining here. ;)

I guess I just don't know why that is relevant.

Like OBJ being on the Packers won't stoop the Packers to a lower level. There are still over 60 players on the team besides OBJ and they are still a very, very rootable team. Those players include divas, selfless players, good natured, likely bad natured, etc.

I'm not going to judge my like or dislike of a team based on one player who is on a minimum contract. TT himself signed players who had off field issues (including arrests) or who were an a$$ hat on the field. As long as they can contribute when needed and it doesn't destroy the locker room...who cares?

There are a lot bigger douches out there than OBJ, like he isn't a bad person. Passionate, emotional, works hard/plays hard, maybe unpredictable. But I'll take that or an inherently bad person any day.

Also, if you're gonna be taking on a character risk guy, doing it for a half-year, prove-it, minimal wage, no guarantees, if you suck you won't see big money next off-season, if you cause trouble we'll trade you to Detroit to suffer -situation is the way to go.

I would hate for my team to spend big in FA on character risk guys or to do blockbuster trades to acquire them, but this would be the opposite of spending big.

After the Greg Jennings sister fiasco, I am wary of any player that has a nosy relative sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.

Ultimately who did she impact the most? It wasn't the Packers or Rodgers, that's for sure. Sure she may have caused a little drama but in the end the only person she really impacted was her brother - in a negative way.

OBJ seemed to be on his way out with Cleveland anyway. His dad was just the tipping point in an already soured relationship. And, unlike Jennings' sister, OBJ's dad actually had a valid point.
