    The final Packer play. A potential season saving comeback on the line.

    Moist-eyed Brett & Bart looking on.

    Maybe, just maybe, the elements are in place for a Bostickler moment.

    Every player has bad games. There wasn't anything notably inpet about Adams' last flub - not an easy catch. But as a finale to an epically foul 4-quarter performance, DA may have created a packer memory for the ages.

      Little high, little fast.

      Adams wouldn't have had to catch that if he caught one of several that came his way earlier.

          ARod in his presser alluded to Cobb being the target at the back of the end zone.
          But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

            ARod didn't directly say but mentioned Cobb was at the back of the end zone on that throw.

              Perfect - it just makes it even more of a Bostickler.

                it wasn't a great throw, but when you get both hands on it, you have to catch it

                split the award between adams and jones

                  I wondered about that. One of the replays showed Cobb mostly directly behind Adams, right at the end line, and I mentioned it was hard to know which of the two he was throwing to.

                    Cobb is the one who took that photo of Adams missing it.
                    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

                    • The calls to invite Jones to the awards dais make me think there wasn't a Bostickler-worthy candidate. Jones was never open, and I thought defenders knocked ball away on all but one of his 0-6 targets. Jones had a bad game, but was it as bad as Cobb's stinker in Minnesota the week before?

                      I thought maybe - only maybe - the Bostickler stench had attached to Adams at the fateful last play - the defeat-snatched-from-jaws-of-victory big moment. Plus Adams had such a very long, 2-13 day.

                      Did Adams and Jones just have forgettably shitty games?


                      Here at the Bostickler Institue, we don't pass trophies out just for players having a bad day. The judging panel is keen to decide if a performance will be memorable.

                      • Adams hands down gets the Bostickler. I mean, it's exactly like what the original did - tried to make the play that wasn't intended for him and fucked it up. What more can you ask from a Bostickler. Adams gets it and fuck him. Mr. Blonde, take it away...

                          Good catch. I mean, you know.

                            • its funny, did anyone else see the larry mac show a couple weeks ago?

                              adams walked on to the stage like a conquering hero after catching 9 out of 21 targets thrown to him or whatever it was

                              of our course, much like with the o-line, Larry saw nothing wrong with adams and did nothing but gush about his performance

                              is larry on the team payroll?

                                I like The Rock. I know he is a glad-handing cornball, but I find him ... something. Entertaining.

                                MArk Tausher is the former Packer lineman who gets on my nerves. That guy is TOTALLY a company man. No matter how horrible the team plays, it's "just a clunker - don't be so negative." I know everybody loves "Tausch"; I think he is a big dummy. All his commentary is you-rah-rah Captain Obvious stuff.

                                Speaking of TV shows, after one horrible loss a couple weeks ago, MM showed up for "The Mike McCarthy Show" late wearing loafers and no socks with a suit coat topside. It was one of the funniest goddamn thing I've ever seen. I think he figured he sits behind a dais or desk and nobody would notice. But at end of segment, the camera showed side view of the haggard coach's bare ankles and calves. A fat man in a dark suite and loafers without socks is quite a scene.
