    I'm disappointed I was not chosen to present........lol
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Bob McGinn's signature/indelible Favre game? His playoff game with Vikes in New Orleans in 2009.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Signature game in many ways, including the interception even McGinn called "boneheaded" that was crucial in the outcome.

    Random thoughts about the HOF display:

    Do they maintain a locker for all HOF members, or is it a temporary display for the new members?
    If it is temporary and will be gone in a few years, I really don't much care what is in it.

    If it is "permanent", I think the content matters, because it educates and conveys impressions for years to people who have very little knowledge of his career.

    How many others have multiple teams represented in their displays, when only very small parts of their careers were with another team?

    If it is intended to highlight the consecutive games record, shouldn't the Jets be represented for being part of the streak? It would better represent the progression of the streak and his longevity.

    The display does seem to imply a somewhat equal footing for the Packers and Vikings, although it appears only a Packer helmet is displayed. It seems to me a more appropriate display might have been an all Packer locker, with Jets and Vikings jerseys layered behind the Packer jersey such that each is only half exposed.

    I am willing to ignore the Falcons in his display.

    Has anyone checked the curator's background? Closet Viking fan, perhaps?

    Don't they have a records section in the HOF? They easily could have had the locker with BF's GB uniform and then a display about his ironman status elsewhere in the museum with all the jerseys he wore during the streak.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
