New show coming out Saturday

Well, Wednesday didn't work out so well, so we're going to have to get the show out on Saturday. We're looking forward to the show and to the game Sunday. Hopefully, the Pack can get untracked and come out of the home opener with a big W against the Browns!

Ten Reasons Our Head Coach Hates Our Former GM

10. Cletidus Hunt is lazy.
9. Joe Johnson
8. Cletidus Hunt is overpaid.
7. Mike McKenzie got what he wanted (contrast to Javon Walker).
6. Cletidus Hunt would've had to get better just to be terrible tonight.
5. Ahmad Carroll can't cover.
4. Cletidus Hunt was too immature to reward with a big contract.
3. Trading up for a punter and then paying him NOT to punt (he'll punt a lot this year, though).
2. Undervalued KGB and underestimated other teams' willingness to sign him--then overpaid him, forcing the coach to overplay him (so the GM didn't look stupid for overpaying him).
1. All those defensive draft picks, so little to show for it.
