Friday Morning Green Bay Packers, NFL News And Links: Vince Lombardi's Grave, Pete Prisco Being Dumb

The reading just gets more and more interesting with every day the lockout goes by. I would really, really like it if I could write about reports of the progression or stagnation of young players participating in minicamps, but instead we have stupid crap like overrated-underrated lists and more lockout speculation from people that have no idea what they're talking about. This weekend, I'm going to order the UFC card and pretend it's football. Here are your Friday morning Green Bay Packers and NFL news and links.

Player Spotlight: Running Back Harvey Unga - Windy City Gridiron

Closing out the Player Spotlight series with 2nd year RB Harvey Unga, who should get a chance at valuable playing time this year. It's hard not to support a guy who got kicked out of college for...drumroll...having sex with his girlfriend.

Very good analysis about why Barrett Ruud might be out of a job when the lockout ends.

Pete Prisco's overrated-underrated list - Calling Asante Samuel overrated is beyond stupid - Bleeding Green Nation

I think the worst thing about discovering that I could read about football on the internet was the discovery of Pete Prisco. And before you say 'Mike Florio,' Pro Football Talk didn't exist (or at least had less than 1,000 page views a month) when I discovered Prisco. This is not a personal attack, I just happen to think he's very bad at his job.

Have a fantastic weekend everyone.

Workouts

Rodgers was at the Brewers game last night, and said he’d call Woodson today and get things in motion.

If I didn't know better, I'd think the Brewers were a halfway decent baseball team...

Prisco is a moron

but he’s dead on on calling Tramon Williams underrated. Was watching Ronde Barber and Darren Sharper talk on NFL Network (granted, both are idiots as well), but they named Devin McCourty, Aqib Talib and Brent Grimes as top 10 CBs, and didn’t mention Tramon Williams!

I know

Talib would be a top corner, if he put everything together and was consistent. That and stay on the field. Grimes is a darn good corner, but he is not going to shut a #1 receiver down. And McCourty has one year of experience. How is a one year player who played on a less than decent defense gonna be ranked higher than Tramon?

I like those guys. They really know how to appreciate a good Husker.

Go Suns, Packers, Jays, and Huskers!

Kicked out of college for having sex?

Glad I never had to worry about that one!

Going to the Bears should take care of that for him, though. If she’s not turned off by hearing about what he does for a living, she’ll be turned off when Brian Urlacher comes over and starts his groping-and-drooling routine.

Gotta have someone to have sex w/ first... Your fist doesn't count!

Sorry, It was just sitting RIGHT there and I couldn’t resist. LOL

Yeah that BYU kid got kicked out when people found out his girlfriend was pregnant. Its a school code of conduct, that students have to sign at BYU… No pre-marital sex among other things from what I read.

You've been Stroh'd™!!!
