I thought Moss would be a cancer

I thought AP would show flashes of briliance not a fricken super nova

I thought the Pack would only be 10-6 ;)

I thought Franks would have a better season

I thought that no way the Vikes could win 8 games

I thought the Pack would trade for Larry Johnson

I thought that Justin Harrel would do something

I thought that Woodson would play all 16 games

I thought LT could run behind any line

I thought Alexander wasnt over the hill

I thought AZ would be good

I thought the Pats were cheaters....oh wait

I thought the Packers would be around .500....not exactly.

I thought Peterson would be good.....not setting all time records right off the bat


I thought the Lions would be better than they are and CJ would have some lofty numbers.

I thought the Saints would be good.

I thought the Bucs would be average.

I though Michael Vick was an asshole. Hey, I got that right!

I thought Moss would get hurt and be a non factor.

I thought the Phins would win a game.

I thought the Pack would go about 10-6.
I thought the Bears would challenge for the NFCN
I thought SF and the Ravens would be pretty good.
I thought Dallas would be average.
I figured Craig Nall would start in Buffalo and never wear G&G again.
I though Samkon would somehow get it figured out in Houston and TO would self destruct.
I thought TT would get a FA and we wouldn't have to remove Bretsky's sig on a technicality.

I thought Colledge would be really good.

I thought it would be one more year before the Packers would beat out the Bears in the NFCN.

I thought Morency and Jackson would be the Pack's top ballcarriers.

I thought Favre would need a solid running game to be effective.

I thought Nick Collins would be one of the best safeties in the NFC.

I never thought the Pack could go 4-0 at Minnesota, Denver, Kansas City, and Detroit on Thanksgiving.

I thought Rouse was an ill fit for the Packers defense.

I thought pacopete4 would tell the truth.

The obvious ones I can recall right now is the very sub par performances of Morency and Colledge

I thought the Bears would be good.

I thought the Packers offense would be horrible.

I thought the Saints would be unbelievable on Offense.

I thought that Peyton Manning would have more TDs then Tom Brady.

I thought that TT had set back our progress by not signing more free agents.

I thought that Morency would be a good starter.

I thought that Harrell would be starting by week 8.

I thought that Culpepper was going to play better.

I thought that Sean Taylor was going to be alive.

I thought that the Packers should have signed Travis Henry.

I thought that Henry would have been better then Grant.

I thought that our WR group would be a weakness.

I thought that the Packers would finish 8-8, 9-7 at best.

I thought the Packers 2 draft picks out of VA Tech, Clowney and Rouse, would turn some heads. ( I guess I got one right.)

I figured the Texans with Matt Schaub and Ahman Green would be awesome.

I thought AJ Hawk would be talked about around the league.

I figured the Bears would win the NFC North.

I thought Calvin Johnson would have more TD's than Greg Jennings.

I thought Brandon Jackson would be our #1 RB.

I thought the 49ers and Saints would be contenders in the NFC.

I thought Romo's season last year was a fluke and he would suck this year.

I thought Moss would be a Packer on draft day.

I thought Adrian Peterson would suck this year because of his collar bone injury at Oklahoma.

I thought Peyton Manning would do 1,293 commercials....not 21,233.

i was wrong about strength of our schedule. teams that were supposed to be good this year just aren't.

i was also wrong about how well the Pack would play. they have been great when allowed to play their game.

i also thought moss was done based on his last couple of years.

I thought Franks would have a better season


Um, he was having a great season, even on the play he got hurt and was robbed by the officials. Hard to be much better then he was when he was playing.[/i]

I was wrong about Aaron Rodgers, he is a viable backup.
NOTE: I didn't say starter material which is disappointing after 3 seasons for a #1 draft pick.

I was wrong about Vernon Morency, I thought he would be the starter and play well.

I was wrong about Rouse, he came to play.

I was wrong about my 7-9 to 10-6 (I hope anyway) prediction.

I was wrong about the Eagles, they really suck.

I was wrong about our schedule, the teams we beat early on really aren't that good.

I was wrong about Romo, he isn't a one year wonder. The kid has skills.

I was wrong about Orange Juice Coston. He doesn't completely suck but he still has a lot to prove before he's considered a good starter.

I was wrong about thinking the Packers would finish 9-7.

I was wrong thinking the Packers WR corps would be poor, except for Driver.

I was wrong thinking that Morency could be a steady starter at RB.

I was wrong thinking that Justin Harrell could prove he was worth the #1 pick.

I was wrong thinking the Moss would be a flop for the Patriots.

I was wrong thinking that Favre should have retired at the end of last season.

I picked the Packers to go 8-8.
I picked the Rams to win the NFC.
I thought Brandon Jackson would be our #1 RB, and I thought we'd be okay with him as the starter.

I thought the pack could go 10-6 if things fell right.
I thought Donald Lee had no shot at being a good TE.
I thought Underwood might be a starting S and would at least make the roster.
I thought our OLine would be better then they have been.
I thought our receivers could be good (not one of the best units in the league).
I thought Jackson was going to be our starter at RB all season (I really liked him coming out of the draft).

I thought SF CHI and StL would all be playoff contenders.
I didn't think NE would be 12-0.
I didn't think Dallas would ever be 11-1.
I thought Calvin Johnson would have a rookie year similar to Moss.
I thought Adrian Peterson would be on IR by week 8.
I thought Brady Quinn would start at some point for the Browns(and that the Browns would still suck).
I thought the Bengals would still be good.

I thought not getting Moss was a sign of doom for our team
I didn't think we would ever be 10-1
I didn't think we would be division champs this year
I thought Morency was going to dominate with a full year under his belt.
I thought Jennings was average and Jones was going to dominate
I didn't think our defense would be this effective
I thought AP was going to be hurt and ineffective for the Vikes
I didn't think Donald Lee was going to make the roster
I thought with all the off-season FA spending by the Patriots, they were going to implode this year
I thought Ahman was going to have a great season
I thought Calvin Johnson was going to be a dangerous weapon for the Lions
I thought Ryan Grant was just a guy and a wasted trade

I thought the Pack would go 9-7.

I thought Calvin Johnson was going to light it up.

I thought Adrian Peterson would be hurt more often.

I thought passing on the Cleveland offer (Pack's pick for a second and next year's first) was a horrible mistake (I think it still might be a mistake, but with Cleveland looking like getting no better than a mid to late first round pick it's looking less disastrous).

I thought Bubba was going to have a solid year.

I thought Daryn Colledge was going to come into his own.

I thought I'd still be married.
