Yes, or at least I'd hope so

[swede]

Yeah, I voted. I like Zeke, but I could live with Pack Rat. Pack Rat is more like an Action Figure name to me, though. The current rodent is more understated and looks like Zeke to me. Any mascot named Pack Rat should maybe consider the anabolic steroid route and pump it up a bit with rippling muscles, red eyes, and saliva dripping from menacing incisors.

I wanted to name the mascot "Steve" but my choice never even appeared on the ballot.

This election is crooked.

I can't believe frickin GrailRat couldn't wax these two wannabe's.
I think 007 strategically ran the election as a time of low voter turnout to hurt Grailrat's chances :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

He held the clipboard, sitting behind Bart Starr for many years.

From secsports.com in their "Legends" section:

Zeke Bratkowski became one of Georgia's most celebrated quarterbacks under Coach Wally Butts and had an outstanding 14-year career in the National Football League. "The Brat" earned All-America honors in both 1952 and '53 and was the nation's leading passer in 1952 and the nation's leading punter in 1953. He was a two-time All-SEC selection and a two-time SEC passing leader. While at Georgia, Bratkowski threw for 4,836 passing yards before moving on to his 14-year NFL career with the Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Rams, and Green Bay Packers. With the Packers he became known as "Super Sub" backing up starter Bart Starr as Green Bay won three consecutive World Championships including two Super Bowls in 1966 and 1967. Bratkowski was known for leading the Packers from a 10-0 deficit to a 13-10 overtime victory over the Baltimore Colts clinching the NFL Western Conference title. He was inducted into the State of Georgia Sports Hall of Fame in 1980.


The transition from Bratkowski to Ratkowski is seamless. I mostly voted for him as I had the pleasure of meeting him and getting his autograph last year along with Fuzzy at the party before the Minn. Monday night game.

Better than naming him after Brett. Fans of other teams would name the mascot after the star. We love all (well, most) of our players--especially the obscure ones (like Paul Ott Carruth, Barty Smith, Ed West, etc.).

[Harlan Huckleby]

Someone will have to contact Zeke Bratkowski and inform him of this honor.

Last I knew, he was offensive coordinator for Miami, or some such thing.
