McKenzie hold out is over...

The Packers are looking good, yes they put a whipping on -- but they did it without McKenzie. He was still holding out at that point. And they just shelled out big bucks for his replacement.

I love Ambrose to death... but he\'s just too old, and opposing teams will continue to take advantage of that. So if there\'s any chance of upgrading that position at all, however slim, however late, then I\'m interested.

I\'m all for the upgrade, but the leverage for the Packers is gone, I mean to trade McKenzie to another team unless that other team really want\'s to spend the first round draft choice.

From what I saw of the Seattle game adding McKenzie is the least of our worries.

How about a WR that can catch?
How about an O-line that can block?
How about TE\'s thats can block AND catch?
How about an O-coordinator with more imagination than a HS coach?
How about a freakin gameplan?
How about adjustments whan things don\'t work?
How about a coach who can fire up a team?
How about a QB gettin in somebody\'s face?
How about using your bruising FB successfully for more than ONE series?
How about a franchise DE that actually plays?

Adding McKenzie is the equivalent of spitting on a fire.
