Green 19 is what I remember. But his audible cadences also had a color scheme, I think it was blue.

Blue 58 (something ending in 8 anyway...)?

From a Bewers forum where there was a rumor that Green 19 was actually 319, in honor of the father of Prince Fielder's career home run mark. Yeah, I know. So take it with a grain of salt, but this is the way I remember it:

Blue 58! Blue 58 set hut! Green 19! Green 19 set hut! snap.

EDIT: Video below makes it sound like Green 18.

I recall green 18. I bet it switched slightly over time.

If they don't keep James Jones next year, after 50 years of bleeding Green and Gold, I'm done

Last straw.

Woody is a free spirit. A free, bitter, angry spirit.

Hell, I've just about got 50 years in. Woody has to have more than that.

Free, bitter, angry, chained to Mabel, doomed to Ted.

If they don't keep James Jones next year, it will be no surprise to me. Montgomery, Adams and the young-uns will be better, plus Jordy comes back.

Yes. Depends on the $ a little, but it is really more of a numbers game. Could go either way at this point.

That was in the early part of his career. Maybe he switched up at the end of his career?

A lot of readers have been asking about cadences you use, whether they mean anything or if they have some personal significance...
Favre: "Most people use blue, green because it's just....Let me see, what's the best way to explain it. It's more rhythmic. Blue-18 is better than Black-18. A lot of teams use a black or red as a hot. When you hear that, there's an audible coming. And everyone's different. Some people when they say 'On 1,' it's really snapped on 1. Ours is more rhythmic. It's 'Blue-18, Blue-10, set-hut.' It all kind of runs together. I could use lavender is I wanted."

Fans were wondering if you do the same call since, like, Pop Warner or high school...
Favre: "Nah. It was probably...When I got here, under Mike Holmgren, the number you call is the actual defensive front and it even went back to Montana and those guys. It was was 'Blue-34' or 'Blue-43.' And so when I first got here, I had to do that. I don't know why they ever did that, but it was just, I guess, a way to keep the quarterback involved or whatever. The fronts you see nowadays, it would be 'Blue-52-wide-boss' for me. So it's just kind of evolved to 18 or 58. So...."

McCarthy has two weeks to fix this broken offense or this season could fall apart quickly and don't tell me to relax Aaron.

27 points. This person doesn't know what broken really means.

seems like that person DID know what they ment

Perhaps, but they didn't say it was going to get worse.
