Thanks. I wasn't understanding where you were coming from. I appreciate you clearing that up.

Check THIS out re Max McGee of Lombardi's Packers...

In the 1966 season, McGee caught only four passes for 91 yards and a touchdown as the Packers recorded a 12-2 record and advanced to Super Bowl I against the Kansas City Chiefs. McGee did not expect to play in the game and he violated his team's curfew policy and spent the night before the Super Bowl out on the town. The next morning he told starting receiver Boyd Dowler, "I hope you don't get hurt. I'm not in very good shape," alluding to his hangover.^[3] Dowler went down with a separated shoulder on the Packers' second drive of the game, and McGee, who had to borrow a teammate's helmet because he had not brought his own out of the locker room, was put into the game. A few plays later, McGee made a one-handed reception of a pass from Bart Starr, took off past Chiefs defender Fred Williamson and ran 37 yards to score the first touchdown in Super Bowl history. By the end of the game, McGee had recorded seven receptions for 138 yards and two touchdowns, assisting Green Bay to a 35-10 victory.

What is that supposed to mean? Parked in my wife? Qualifies as petty lol. Brother you are way out of line.

lol... sorry, not meant for you. Above the quote box means it refers to the prior post... in this case DieHard's.

As for the actual "wife" line... park was my twist on an old line that predates your arrival. The original used verb you'd find much more objectionable.

Tour I was thinking when Mangini fined the players $1,700 each, one for not paying for a $3 dollar bottle of water and the other for not paying for an in room movie. There were some other things too like fining players for parking in the wrong stall, players filing grievances over length of practices. I know he was trying to install discipline but the way he was doing it seemed to come across as petty and I don't think the players respected Mangini for it.

lol... Well that certainly qualifies as petty.

@oldbrownsfan said:

When Mangini was here I thought some of his discipline was petty. I think Pettine has got a good balance of being a players coach and being a disciplinarian.

I don't recall "petty", but clearly Pet is a far more approachable, relatable person than Mangini.

@oldbrownsfan said:

Pettine hasn't proved himself to be Lombardi yet but he is headed in the right direction.

Yeah I was being facetious in case you missed it.

Apples and oranges comparison.

Harrumph!!!

You never saw Vince Lombardi, strolling in to work whenever he damn well felt like it! He led by example!
