DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE

Well not quite... But opposites nonetheless. Mike Vandermause of the Green Bay Press-Gazette had an interesting column comparing the different outlooks and strategies of Ted Thompson and Ron Wolf. Thompson values draft picks above all else while Wolf was not afraid to delve into free agency and the trading market, two places where the former GM made key acquisitions that helped the Packers to three straight NFC Champioinship Game appearances. Thompson has been known not to do those same things that brought Wolf and the Packers such success, but that does not necessarily mean his ways of thinking won't bring winning with it.

This is my first true sports writing venture, and I hope to one day be one of the most read blogs about the Green Bay Packers. Knowing how die hard Packers fans are, I hope to create a place where they can get the news about their favorite team on a daily basis, while also commenting and starting discussions on their own. While also commenting on news stories about the team, I hope to be able to give some opinion on possible moves the team should make (ie free agents, draft) and anything else that I feel necessary about the green and gold.
