I cannot even properly explain how wonderful it was for me to see Jerry Kramer introduced Saturday Night as finally being in the Class of 2017 Season NFL HOFErs.

To see that man manage to walk out before that Crowd and with Green Bay Packer GREAT and Packer and NFL HOFER Brett Favre standing right there to greet Mr.Jerry Kramer was way beyond awesome for this very long time Green Bay Packer fan.

I was so very fortunate to see Jerry Kramer (and Fuzzy Thurston) too often lead the way and execute the now Famous 'Lombardi "Power' Sweep'.

CONGRATULATIONS ! Jerry Kramer !
