    You can heed Wist43's words and remain like him a Packer fan.

    Any poster here>>>

    If you cannot handle it ...any poster. Somehow make it disappear 'on your own'. Handle your own shit.
    Yes, Wist rings a truth bell until you point out that 2 years ago the Packers won the Super Bowl with the same GM, HC and DC that they have now. He'll chalk that up to luck or moon phases or something.
    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
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      There are Packerrats on this board that have never been cognizant of the Green Bay Packers as losers. They've known nothing but success. I endured the 70's and 80's... I've earned my stripes.

      To me, winning another one in fairly short order would validate the first one more... not "moon phases", everything simply fell our way; and everyone played out of their minds. I enjoyed that win just like all Packer fans did - I wanna win another one. Been a pretty tough row to hoe since Kansas City smacked us around though.

        Several rats endured the 70's and 80's like you did. That's partly why this run - from Wolf to now, excepting a few bad years, has been so sweet.

          People play up the trials and tribulations of being a Packer fan in the '70s and '80s well beyond what it really was. Yes, they had some pretty bad years in there, often several in a row. But, there were some real surprises too, and some great players to watch during that time. The Lynn Dickey lead offense was fantastic, and Lofton was unbelievable at times.

          It was never a very complete team, but often it was very entertaining. Compared to what some other fans have endured with other franchises, it wasn't that bad. The problem was coming of the high of the '60s, when it dominated.

          If, as a fan in any sport, your only satisfaction comes from winning a championship; you should probably find a different avenue for entertainment.
