Re: The Goods

Good analysis overall, and props to Nutz for manning up (can I use man'ing instead of "manning"?) and posting when it wasn't easy for him. However, the following concerns me:

...Anyways, I came on here last year and talked a little shit to my former fellow Packer fans, so I feel obligated to tell you all how well your team played, even with the McCarthy run offense trying to give Favre as many shots as possible to steal the game in the fourth quarter...

"Your team"?!?!?!

For God's sakes, Nutz. I know you've been enlightened and all and are above rooting for a specific team, but it remains pathetic of you to refer to the Pack as "your team" to the rest of us.

See that darkness you're walking towards? Here's an idea - face the (purplish) darkness, turn around 180 degrees, face the light, and walk towards it. Welcome back to life as a Packer fan.

Don't force me to schedule an offline intervention. Especially since you're bigger than me.

I know Skin only lets you out of the back shed during scheduled feeding intervals, but that's no excuse. I see your post count is something like 6600, that's something like 800 when converted to Pillow Thread Count. You're obviously a Packer fan, you can do better than that. Bitch.

Love,
superfan

Nice post, Nutz... pretty accurate.

Hard to imagine how someone could stop being a Packers fan, but I guess I've been one for so long that I wouldn't know another way.

Great thread. Packerrats really is the only forum where you can read up on Cliffy's current footwork and learn some valuable life lessons at the same time. I feel like the kid in the barbershop scene in Gran Torino.

Drop Joe the Admin a PM. He's the only one that can bump your status. Don't expect too much, not a lot posts in the GC.

...Now go fuck yourselves

Maybe later. They tend to frown upon those shenanigans at the office.

Nice break down. I think the thing that stood out the most from your analysis was saying GB wanted it more. I think that was just the case: they got such great effort out of the DL with Wynn and Wilson who shouldn't even be on the field for more than a couple snaps as they develop. Due to injuries, GB was outclassed by personnel on paper, but they were ready to play!

Isn't that on the head coach? Getting his team ready to play!

I'm a fan of MM. He shows good pad level and i think he'll get things cleaned up.

[Deputy Nutz]

Fuck you, nutz, and your Bert apologies. The fuck deserves what he gets. Remeber? He took responsibilty for his legacy. We.., he fucked it up huger than big.

Had he have gone out on TT's terms, the guy would be a candidate for sainthood. I hope he rots for what he did to the Packers. Fucker. Rot!!!

I agree with this until BF retires from the league. Then he is welcome back at Lambeau after a couple of years cooling period.

If a couple means 10 then maybe.

Not in my lifetime. The guy turned from saint to demon for me. I wish him the worst future possible. I hope the commissioner suspends him, his injuries prevent him from ever taking the field again and that his legacy is so damaged he doesn't get voted into the HOF 1st ballot. I hate this fucker big time.

Then do me a favor, pack up that 200 dollar Favre jersey that you bought, and send it to me, I will always be happy to wear a Packer Jersey as long as it has a 4 on it. I will PM you my address.

Again, why do I have to be a fucking sheep and follow along like the rest of you when I disagree and refuse to support a General Manager? The last time I checked it isn't the "Green Bay Thompsons". I refuse to support bullshit, and I will stand up against it. When Thompson is gone, and when McCarthy is gone then maybe I can lay my hatred at rest for the Packer organization.

But it isn't even that, I follow the Packers closer than I follow the Vikings. In fact I can't stand the Vikings outside of Favre, Allen, and Peterson. I enjoy football, but I don't think I can ever have the same passion for a team as I did with a Favre led Packers team. Regardless if Favre actually walked away in 2008, I think that flame has flickered out.

Also I am the furthest fucking thing away from a goddamn communist liberal.

We've been over this territory before. Totally understand your POV. Don't agree with most of it, but it doesn't make you a 'traitor,' just a BFFF. I agree that the overall excitement level dropped after Favre left. I thought the combination of 3-4 blue chippers this year would change all that, but injuries have really dumped the season in the crapper.

I know, but apparently we have some newcomers around here who haven't heard this rant and I wanted to make it available again.

Great point. So then why would you allow your dislike of the GM to stop you from liking the team?????

Exactly what I was thinking. I can't follow the logic on Nutz' post. And I hope the newcomer comment was directed to me, check my join date. Though I wasn't around much last year when your "revelation" seemed to take place.

Also Guiness, Ziggy was right, it wasn't directed at you.

Last time I checked it wasn't the Green Bay Favres either. Bottom line you picked a player over a team. Nothing wrong with that just means you were never really a Packers fan and more of a Favre fan.

Ya, this is the nuts, Nutz! You can have the fucking Jersey. If I don't give it to you, I'll tear it up and use it to wipe my arse.

Favre is a self-centred joke that happens to be a hell of a football player. One that hurt the team I root for, purposely. You can have him, his sexting and all. Me? I'm a Packers fan and no player is bigger than the team.

If you're too ignorant to see what TT has done out of the shitstorm Sherman left him wit, then that's on you. You know you're on the outer rim when the only poster to agree with you is Woodbuck.

nutz, you are far from a commy lib, I agree. Therefore I support your right to be wrong to the bitter end. I wish you would post more as I miss your humor. I'll still take my shots when I disagree with you as I expect you would me. Come back in from the cold and be more involved...even if you bash TT.

Gotta agree with bobblehead on this. As much as I disagree with your point of view it's beneficial to have differing view points on the forum. Your humor and points keep things interesting and prevent Packer love fest from being the norm.

Then again I'm a complete Packer homer and get all warm and fuzzy when the media gushes on the Pack so the rah rah threads are obviously enjoyable from that perspective but it's posts like yours and Wist's that help keep things grounded a bit.

Speaking of which, dammit where's the kool-aid as we're going to beat the injury bug and make the NFC title game in the watered down NFC.
