Here I am just working my tail off listening to some local morning sports radio when former Packer tight end, and a highly educated man, Jermichael Finley comes on the show. (Air'n it out on The Fan:107.5 if you are interested in listening to shitty takes for 4 hours). He had some harsh words about Randall Cobb and his lack of production so far this season. He essentially said Cobb got paid and now he doesn't work as hard or care as much. While Cobb has been frustrating the past season and a half, to call out a man's work ethic is a low blow and one that screams of jealousy on Finley's part. Obviously getting paid and having an abundance of guaranteed money to fall back on (13 million to be exact) is probably a great feeling, I do not think this correlates with the amount of work he has put in at "the lab" as the kids say these days. I totally understand that Finley would be jealous. The guy was an absolute IDIOT but he was a special weapon in the Packers arsenal and the Packers haven't come close to replacing his production and god given abilities to stretch a defense since. Guys who have 4.6 speed and a 6'6 frame and built like a brick shit house do not just grow on trees. It was very unfortunate his career had to end on the Lambeau turf in 2012, but that is the price you pay for playing the great game of football. Finley also fails to understand that Cobb left plenty of money on the table by not signing with the shitty Raiders or Jaguars who both offered him more money to come play for perennial losers.
I am sure the fact that 78,000 people aren't cheering for you anymore is a HUGE adjustment to make, but Finley can't complain, he cashed in on a 10 million life insurance policy and is still in good health as a normal civilian who is not playing pro football. He should be doing just fine for himself and his 12 children (assuming he has that many, with plenty of baby mamas to go around). I always liked Finley on the field but couldn't stand him off the field. I think that is the direct effect of one of my friends approaching him at a bar for a picture, and him straight up DENYING THE SHIT OUT OF HIM. It was actually pretty hilarious at the time, but now that I am writing this it isn't as funny. He was also walking out with THREE girls in his hip pocket, what a dick. Leave some for the normal people, there aren't exactly an abundance of good looking women to go around in Green Bay/ De Pere. Then again, who the hell can compete with a man that impersonates a fin as beautifully as this:

You couldn't find a more accurate depiction of a fin if you turned on Animal Planet! It is poetry in motion for God sakes!
