WELL I WOULD HOPE THAT IT WILL BE SOMETIME THIS WEEK. I HAVEN\u2019T HEARD ANYTHING NEW SINCE WE LAST TALKED ABOUT THIS, WHICH WAS I WAS HEARING EVERYTHING COUNTER TO THE REPORTS THAT CAME OUT LAST WEEK. THERE WAS GOING TO TAKE A WHILE. YOU HEARD WHAT OMAR KHAN SAID ABOUT BEING PATIENT WITH IT AND HAVING IT NOT DRAG OUT TO JUNE. WELL, YEAH, I WOULD HOPE SO. BUT YOU KNOW, IF THEY DO GET TO THE POINT WHERE IT\u2019S FREE AGENCY TIME OR THE LEGAL TAMPERING PERIOD, AND THEY HAVE ANY VISION WHATSOEVER OF TAKING A QUARTERBACK IN FREE AGENCY LIKE MALIK WILLIS OR MAKING A TRADE FOR SOMEONE. DO IT AND DON\u2019T WAIT ON RODGERS BECAUSE HE\u2019S YOUR GUY. NOW, THIS IS DIFFERENT THAN LAST YEAR WHEN THE MUSICAL CHAIRS STOPPED AND YOU BOTH JUST HAPPENED TO BE LOOKING AT EACH OTHER. THIS IS ABOUT RETAINING YOUR OWN PLAYER, AND TO ME, THAT\u2019S AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT KETTLE OF FISH. SO I WOULD BE MORE INCLINED TO MOVE AWAY FROM RODGERS IF HE ISN\u2019T READY TO GIVE YOU AN ANSWER BY, SAY, THE LEGAL TAMPERING PERIOD.
