Ah, the stupidity of the Internet masses. It’s great for comedy! Some people currently think Julius Peppers will not play for the Green Bay Packers in 2014.
Why? This stupid headline from CBS Sports: After Further Review: Packers are not getting prime Julius Peppers.
First of all, really Pete Prisco? So, you’re telling me a football player who’s 34 years old isn’t as good as he was when he was, say, 24? You don’t say? Shit. I thought he was going to go out there have his best season yet!
You really mailed that column in you stupid prick…
Anyway, people are reading the headline as “Packers are not getting Julius Peppers.” Like, he won’t be signing with the team (even though he already did) or he’s been released.
And…
Julius peppers let go from packers according to cbs sports

Calm down, everyone. The moron who wrote the column we referenced above was simply stating that the Packers won’t be getting the dominant Julius Peppers of year’s past. They won’t be getting a player in his prime. “Prime” is the operative word there.
Peppers is still on the team and could be through 2016.
