      Never thought about that, but holy smokes...Rodgers wears #12...And even Matt Flynn is a 10", apparently.

          This threat is starting to grate on me.

                I can't run no more
                With that lawless crowd
                While the killers in high places
                Say their prayers out loud
                But they've summoned, they've summoned up
                A thundercloud

                          21 for 21 interceptions in 1975.

                          Packers’ Coach Dan Devine's trade for Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Hadl after the sixth game of the 1974 season is one of the most infamous in Packers history. Devine gave up five draft picks — a first, second and third in '75 and first and third in '76 — for the 34-year-old veteran. Hadl would play just 1-1/2 seasons for the Packers, throwing 3 touchdowns and 8 interceptions for a 54.0 quarterback rating in 1974 and 6 touchdowns and 21 interceptions for a 52.8 rating in 1975. Devine resigned at the end of the '74 season.
                          You know, Devine was so bad as a GM it may be that his dog shot itself to escape the embarrassment.

                            Didn't Bert practically do that in one game against the Rams in the playoffs?

                              I remember when we were all over at JSO and the migrations that led HH and Mad to start this place fondly. I remember how our biggest beef with Bert was the occasional boneheaded throw, and yeah, we were pissed about it, but he was ours. Looking at this thread is a token of how a once loved hero to the people of Packer Nation has utterly blown his legacy. He went from being Brett to Brent to Bert.

                              Now, compare the that to the everlasting Bart and tell me Bert isn't a fool.

                                For lifelong Packer fans, the team is always bigger than any individual. Bart Starr, as good as he was, always got this. So did almost every Packer legend.
