From a Packers.com article:
"Another important reason led Pickett to sign with the Packers. His wife Jennifer fell in love with Green Bay during their initial visit.
"My wife really enjoyed it when she came," he said. "We've got to keep the boss happy."
Smart man! :lol:

Ryan Pickett, STL, 4 – GB (5y/$17M; $0.50M SB; 2006 cap number: $5.0M)
