I'm noticing a lightening of the Packer bandwagon. The Lions loss was discouraging - an inept passing game is unfamiliar territory in Rodgers era. Not so many people posting this week at packerrats. Are the rats fleeing the sinking ship?
Fight (bad language, calls to fire X, fixes proposed)
Flight (Only a game. Spend more time with family)
F you. Just F you.

I tried voting for #2 and #3 but for some reason your poll doesn't allow for that. Free choice, my ass. For me a Packer loss to the Bears will mean a very productive month of October at work and newfound domestic tranquility.
I too found this poll objectionable and voted to fuck myself. Every packer season I stop caring and fall off the bandwagon, although never this early in the campaign. My reason is often that injuries are disheartening, and I just get tired of football for a bit. But then I climb back aboard.
Chicago looked pretty good last week, they could win.
If the Packers lose Sunday I will take the loss in stride. As my brother says, the season is still young and away losses to division rivals can be easily remedied by winning at home.
...Then I will walk out into my backyard and blow my brains out.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Actually, me thinks the rats are in for a long season this year....which result in absolutely no changes in coaches nor personnel.
I might take an extra belt of bourbon if they lose and lament about it on packerrats some.Originally Posted by oldbutnotdeadyet
Then I'd go to sleep, get up on Monday, and deal with the hundreds of things that I actually have some control over.

This reminds me... what if the defense improves and lands somewhere in the 10-15 range, ST has a top 10 year, but the offense just stays in a funk? Say the offense under-performs all year, landing ~15-20 or so and they finish .500 +/- a game because they can't score enough, and don't make the playoffs. The way things are going right now, your scenario is entirely plausible because I don't know that they would make any personnel moves in that case.

There is always Badger basketball to fall back on.
It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
People are mesmerized by the Brewers' epic battle to finish .500.

Despite everyone being back, I don't expect last season's success. That was just too good of a run to duplicate.
Oh and to add an on topic bit, I'm going to be at this game. I bought tickets for this game and the Thursday Viking game in early August. I kind of rolled up the two games into a 2 week long road trip vacation/visit family in Wisconsin thing. Hopefully the Packers don't make me regret paying 300 dollars for a piece of paper that allows me to watch them stink it up in person. A competitive game would be nice. One in which it looks like we are fielding a professional offense and not the JV squad from my High School.
Not bad planning.

We really need this win but it's certainly not over if we lose. Maybe it will come down to another late season division game.
Other. Wild Hockey starts soon. Oh and fire slocum.
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.
I would also swear and be mad.

The Packers are doing a really poor job of managing our expectations so far. They'd have to suck in an another unexpected way for me to really lose it.
70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.
Not fleeing the sinking ship, but it gets old beating the same dead horses over and over and over again.
"Pad Level" is in a thread title AGAIN ferfuxsakes.
If We have another bad loss, this is no exaggeration, I'm going to fucking kill myself. I'm going straight to tower drive bridge and jumping.

If I didn't know better, after reading this I would think I had stumbled into a Bears forum in any given year.
I think JustinHarrell is sincere because he referred to Packers as "We."
