Okay, I am. Or I was, anyway. I don’t care about the Lions (fortunately and obviously - I’m a Niners fan), but I can’t avoid the depressed vibes that float around the state every Sunday. So, wow. The Bears suck more than the Lions? That’s really quite remarkable. I think you should be proud of that kind of suckiness.
That’s a nice little fantasy. Can I join? No, seriously, can I? Gotta have some reason to wake up in the morning, after last week’s WHAT-THE-HELL??? first half against the Bears, and this week’s Scary-as-a-Martha-Stewart-Striptease Raiders game.
Siiiiigh Alas, in the real world, “Repeat” is a word that too often only applies to shampoo bottle instructions.
Kn(Hit me, Brady, one more time!)ckers
Err, third quarter, I meant. Not so good with fractions.
Not like anybody cares, in this wacky den of Packersness.
You can all laugh. It’ll be Eagles-Patriots. Last year I said the Patriots were the best team in the NFL, and everyone laughed.
Unless McNabb is hurt worse than I think, in which case it’s Saints-Patriots.
BUUUUAAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHA.
I love it when the Vikes beat the Pack!! 
I believe he has a broken ankle and will be out 6-8 weeks. That’s pretty serious IMHO. I can’t believe he played the rest of the game on it. That’s downright “Favre-esque”
And you know what? Why all this bitching about Favre? I’m sorry, but more so than just about any other player, Favre DOES give you a chance to win. He is the one player in the league you never, ever ever bet against. I’m sorry, but it’s true. I’m sorry Chicago has to deal with the twin powerhouses of Chandler and Miller at the QB. But that doesn’t change the fact that if you choose one player to build your franchise around, you pick Favre. (Well, for one season, anyway. If we’re looking long term then you probably pick McNabb or Vick. But that’s beside the point…)
And I’m sorry to spoil your little pity party, jarbaby, but Cincinatti is by far the worst team in the league. It’s not even close and I refuse to argue about this. Cincinatti is the worst. Case closed. The Bears can be second worst, though.
Ahem:
The Pack didn’t look very good yesterday.
And to make your New Year too:
At least one, and probably two of those roughing the passer calls were ticky tack.
Hope you enjoy your holiday season whilst you cry yourself to sleep thinking how the Bears could go from 13-3 to losing 7 (and possibly more) straight this year.
And, just in case you think I’m being too nice, Favre gets his share of the blame for loses, especially earlier in his career. And he got some of the blame for their loss yesterday. However, most Packer fans, and commentators, aren’t so manic-depressive as Bears fans who either have the best team or the worst team, with no in between. And they are so critical. My God, A-Train goes from rookie of the year “get that guy off the field and let’s see Adrian Peterson.” Jauron goes from gridiron Guru to ignoramous of the year. You have, with few exceptions, the same team as last year, yet all I heard was last year you were the best and this year you’re the worst. More patience, less bitching.
And the reason there isn’t a whole lot of scathing criticism about Favre is that he’s really fucking good. A top 5 quarterback of all time, I’d say, and definitely top 10.
And Mully: the Pack have beaten Atlanta, the Patriots, and Miami, not exactly the easiest teams to beat. And all this success while losing vital starters. They’re for real.
No No No Mssr. Hamlet. If you wear a #54 jersey, John Shoop is the physical embodiment of Satan in the city that blows.
Other than that…your analysis is spot on. 
I’d be willing to go along with that, but it would necessitate a little crappiness increase from Miami, and I haven’t seen them show any indication of falling to pieces.
Plus, with the Bills and Jets breathing down their necks, the Pats will have their work cut out for them - I have to wonder if they can do it, since they really have had a lot of on-again-off-again moments, on both offense and defense. The rest of the season will have to be pretty damn on-again for the Pats to even make the playoffs, and I wonder if they’re up to it.
As for the Saints (assuming McNabb’s injury is enough to knock out the Eagles), well, I haven’t paid any attention to them at all, so I’ll go somewhere and shut up.
Just signed on…found this site a few days ago & I’m just in awe of the topics and rantings going on. But just wanted to offer my 2 cents on this subject. Yes, I’m a cheese head & have lived thru such a drought of their losing for quite a while. I got hooked with the “sneek” with Starr back in…well…that was a while ago! Since Favre has been here, its been quite a thrill watching the passion he has for the game. He’s a winner. Any franchise would love to have him. We’re glad Atlanta gave him up! Farve has just a few seasons remaining, he knows it. He wants one more ring. If not, he’ll still go out a winner.
On another note, Packer fans HATE a losing season, as with any other fan, but as long as we win just 2 games. Against the Bears, of course!
Favre? Isn’t he that guy who let Michael Strahan fall on him for the sack record?
See it will be Philly vs. someone in the Superbowl. It goes along with the Philly tradition. We overcome obstacles all the way to the finals where we can lose in a tremendous fashion. Fate is very predicatable when it comes to these things.
I’m gonna miss McNabb. I just wanna toss a big neener out to any Cards fans. Next year, we’re gonna tie one of his arms behind his back too for a further handicap. (Yes, I know they beat us 3 out of the last 4 games before last Sunday but I just couldn’t resist. )
Daunting, ain’t it? But welcome, Kraig! It’s a fun place.
And now back to your regularly scheduled insanity…
Thanks for the welcome, Kn*ckers , I am still in total amazement. Like that first girlfriend that use to…
Better not go there!!!
I just have to jump in here and mention that Duce Staley hangs out at the same Applebee’s that I do when he’s in town, and I poured his drinks when I was tending bar there. Given that, go Eagles!
