They Blinked

It's a good thing the word about the NFL's PED investigation didn't come from Packers General Manager Ted Thompson because after listening to him talk and reading and rereading and reading again his statement we still wouldn't know what he said, but the word did come down before the Packers hosted the Raiders and three of the "Al Jazeera 4" blinked.

The Fans Are Thrilled

The National Football League Players Association wanted to make this a line in the sand issue, but by time the situation would have settled in court Clay Matthews, Julius Peppers, James Harrison and Mike Neal would have missed the season.

 

The losers in that result would be the Packers, Steelers, fans and the players. Suspensions would start a week from Friday and if that would have begun no telling when the players would have given in. And make no doubt, the players would have eventually given in. So giving in now just shortens the inevitable. .

 

However, the NFLPA still has its test case because former Packer and current free agent Mike Neal is still holding out. So it seems this solution is the best of both worlds.

 

The investigators get their interviews. The players get to play. The fans get to cheer. And the teams get their star players.

 

One more thing. Check Packers.com. The No News Zone had nothing as of 5.27 p.m. after the word came down at 2:30 p.m. No surprise there.

 

I just thought of something else. It seems Thompson was right about something in a backdoor sort of way. Thompson said anything he would have to say would only delay any solution and he was right. He said nothing while answering questions about the situation two days ago (again no surprise) and low and behold the situation has now be resolved at least Harrison, Matthews and Peppers have agreed to an interview.

 

So Thompson can say he was the reason the situation has been resolved. Since he can say that I also have a fully guaranteed Wild Tiger Charm that works 24/7. I have owned this charm for all of my 63 years and not once, mind you, not once, has a wild tiger approached me or even been spotted within a 100 miles of me.
