Schneider Regret, Smack Questions and Brewers Needs

Homer opens the Jason Wilde and Tim Van Vooren Homer Hour frustrated by Ed Policy’s confidence in the Packers’ leadership group, arguing Green Bay missed a major chance by not choosing John Schneider as president. He says the Packers should be judged by whether they are truly special, not simply by Titletown tradition, and pushes the idea that Green Bay is really “Lombarditown” because Vince Lombardi created the franchise’s championship identity. Jason Wilde joins to discuss Trey Smack’s path to the Packers kicking job, questioning why Green Bay is not creating more serious competition at a position that could decide games. Wilde also weighs in on Tucker Kraft’s contract situation, the lessons from the Davante Adams fallout, and why John Schneider would have made more sense as a Packers general manager than as team president. Tim Van Vooren closes the hour with Brewers trade-deadline thoughts, saying Milwaukee needs one or two significant moves, especially pitching help, if it wants to realistically push past the Dodgers and make a World Series run.
