Interesting story 
<http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=745817>out of Milwaukee. 
There may not be any room in Green Bay for Koren Robinson.

That's too bad. Hey, we understand the numbers game in the NFL and we 
understand that this is a business where only the best players survive. 
But Robinson has been through so much and the fact that he got his 
personal life together last year to play with the Packers and in the NFL 
again was an important story for young athletes to follow.

Perhaps, if he doesn't make it in Green Bay, Robinson can catch on 
elsewhere. An interesting side note to this story is the absence of the 
retired Brett Favre in Green Bay. He and Robinson grew close and Favre 
helped Robinson through his battle with alcoholism because he said he 
dealt with a similar struggle. If Favre was still in Green Bay, he'd 
likely try to find a way for the Packers to find a role for Robinson 
despite the receiver logjam.
