LeRoy Butler re-negotiated his contract. He will be playing for the veteran's minimum for the next two years (three if he plays that long).

This is the second consecutive year that he has negotiated down his contract (costing himself over $2 Million). He just wants to finish his career in Green Bay.

Way to go, LeRoy!

I wish more pro athletes would take that approach. One thing I love about football is that individual players are easily associated with teams or cities. In other sports, players move so often that you can't do that.

I like it when I see stories of this type, especially coming out of Green Bay...Go, Pack, Go!!

It renews my faith that not ALL professional athletes are complete jags. A little loyalty to the team and fans is nice to see once in a while.

Woohoo, Leroy! For a guy drafted by Lindy Infante...he's still kickin' major booty at an advanced age.

Geez, we haven't had that kind of veteran leadership in the secondary since Mark Murphy and Mark Lee. (Although deep down, I'm a Chuck Cecil mark. Reopening old nose scars with your face mask via hard hits=blading=RATINGS, baby.)

Being a Packer fan in Green Bay SO rules.

Great news about Leroy, I'm a big Packer fan.
Anyone know any info on the receiver from Florida St, they drafted. Is he any good and how's his attitude.

Yet another reason why the Pack are the dark horses for this season.

hayabusa: You must mean Javon Walker, WR, Florida State.

Good news, Packer fans...working at Lambeau for a Green Bay TV station on draft weekend, my reporter and I got to interview Walker...and drag him out into a snowy (naturally) stadium for his First. Snowfall. EVER. So far, he's easily the most respectful NFL player I've ever met. Heck, he even called ME "sir!"

Yeah, he'll be good, but you can't expect too much from most NFL rookies. With Terry Glenn as the #1 guy, I'm hoping Walker will be able to make spot contributions and get a good year under him, without the pressure of being Brett Favre's go-to guy.

Packers.com did a Q&A with him here. His profile's here.

The inaugural NFC North title shall be ours! :-)

Terry Glenn.....#1 Receiver....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! If Brett can get the Pack past Da Bears with that, he really can turn chicken shit into chicken salad.

Sure, Brett can. We've been led to believe this is an all-new Terry Glenn. Just like Andre Rison reformed himself for the 1996 season.

Heck, Brett beat Da Bears last year, and we got rid of nearly all those receivers. BTW, is the Bears offense still pathetic? Us sideline photographers at that game last year moved north/south on the field a lot more than Jim Miller and those 10 other guys.

I quote that Happy Schnapps Combo polka: "Da Bears still suck!"

The Bears are just another 1-year wonder. I doubt they even make the playoffs this year.
