During this past week the Green Bay Packers have created their own controversy because of their team picture. The problem all started when the Packers planned to take a team photo without the players who were placed on injured reserve. This bothered Tight End Jermichael Finley and Linebacker Nick Barnett and they went to twitter with the issue. This created a little back and forth between Aaron Rodgers and Barnett. In my opinion they should have been included in the picture because they contributed to the team and may have been the difference in them making the playoffs. My problem is the way they handled it. They should have gone to the team captains privately to not create a distraction for the team. In the end the team rescheduled to include the injured players. On Super Bowl Media Day expect to hear a lot of questions on this subject.
