Ted Thompson's Statement
If anyone didn't know by now, the Green Bay Packers are Ted Thompson's team. If there was any doubt left in anyone's mind, he cleared it up this week. Within two days, he gave his quarterback, Aaron Rodgers $66 Million dollars and followed that with the surprising dismissal of KGB and his 37 million dollar contract. Gbaja-Biamila was one of the last players from the Mike Sherman GM days. I always questioned the contract given to a one-dimensional player. Ted Thompson may be brash, he may have escorted a legend out of town, but he sure does take control of his team, and I think you have to respect that. Good work Ted.

Say what you want but I think this guy is a great GM. One move I wish he would have made was the Gonzalez deal, but other than that, I don't disagree with any move that he has made, including #4...
I won't respect Ted Thompson unless the Packers win the Super Bowl in the next 5 years. His only other out is if the Brewers win the World Series next year then I'll like any person associated with a professional sport in Wisconsin.
