1. I was impressed
that's the way I thought the Pack would play all year. Inconsistancy is the problem....just hope they can hold it together...

Congrats on the pool! :bounce:

5. You and me both.
I really think they can pull it together. They didn't really start out all that great last year and look where they ended up. After last week's PackersPlus with the "Lambeau Mistake" headline, I am thinking of giving up my subscription. :hi:

2. I had to reluctantly back your Packers
I hate when there are inter-divisional games because I don't know who I hate more. But it was good to see Joey Heatherton and the kitties take it on the chin. If only they both could lose. I know...I know. The Bears suck. They REALLY suck. They will not win another game this season. But it sure is SWEET that the one win they do have is against the Packers. I guess I'll have to watch that game every Sunday for the rest of the season now. Congratulations on the win.

6. Thanks kanrock.
The division is really weak in a lot of spots this year. It will be interesting to see where everyone ends up. :hi:

3. And please cream the ever-loving shit
out of the Cowboys in the upcoming game so the folks in Arlington don't knuckle under the to rich jerks who are trying to strong arm them into voting for a new stadium here!

4. I don't know why people thought Detroit was going to win.
This had all the earmarks of exactly what happened.

:bounce:

And 3 of my 4 teams won this weekend! But not the favorite, unfortunately...

8. I don't either. But it's a town of fair weather fans IMO. I used to be a
Red Wings fan in the 80's, until (some of) their fans really started irritating me. Bringing "Dead Wings" signs to the JLA. Truly disgusting. To be honest, I was just as disgusted with Packers fans last Monday night. If you can't say anything positive, or in this case cheer, then keep your mouth shut. :hi: :hi: :hi:

9. Well, I'm a big Packer backer myself, Grumps....
But they're still 2-4.

Don't buy your playoff tickets yet. :(

10. I'm in it for the long run! I never give up until they are 8-8 and that's
a long way off. It's my dad's spirit I guess! :hi:

11. Anyone who was a fan during the 20 years of crap...
...is going to stick with 'em through this. ;)

I'm not saying you should stop rooting for the Pack (I sure won't). Just don't want you to get your hopes up. :P

12. Heh. Remember when I felt it in my bones last year that the Packers
were going to the playoffs because the Cardinals were going to beat the Vikings? I have just that same kind of feeling about the rest of this season. I really, really do1!! :hi:

13. playoffs mean nothing
Unless you go all the way, and they choked like Bush on a pretzel. They will again. They are not that good.

14. Oh no!! No comparing the Packers with Bush.
That's like a dagger through my heart. :cry:

19. Mike sherman
They were cyber-lynching MS on the packer web boards after last week. I had to bug out, stupid fair-weather fans!

Ever surf the Packer chat rooms MrsG?

20. I did once, and got very irritated, very fast. I really can't stand some
of the talk that goes on in sports boards. My father, who was born with a Packer jersey on and still swears that Bart Starr was the best Packer QB ever...you know the type... is not a big Sherman fan. I defend Sherman all the time. But then I had to defend Brett at first too. :hi:
