Congrats on this impressive milestone. Even more impressive is the total word count you've contributed to this site. I'd love it if you could add up the total number of words you've posted and report back, that number would be staggering.Originally posted by woodbuck27 View PostI also want to express my wish that all the former posters we had here would return at least from time to time to say hello. Tell us how you've been and how do you feel about the present Green Bay Packer team.
Haven't posted anything in a while but I don't really consider myself a former poster - more like an occasional lurker and less frequent poster.
Like everything else, hoping for a win today but not very optimistic. Here's a few things I'm looking for out of tonight's game:
1. Hopefully the offensive resurgence from the Washington game will carry over. And as much as I like the "free play", I'd like to see Rodgers take a few more shots downfield even when he doesn't have a free down. Considering how they've been fairly successful on those this year you'd think he'd realize he can afford to be more aggressive.
2. Something I HATE that seems to happen every game - the offense will be facing a 3rd down somewhere in the neighborhood of the 50 yard line and Rodgers will call a timeout as the play clock winds down. Then on the ensuing play they fail to convert and punt, thus wasting a timeout. No more of those please.
3. Defense needs to continue getting pressure and limit big plays and big penalties. I've been pretty happy with the defense this year, too busy being mad at the offense. If the D can hold Arizona to 20 or less GB has a pretty good chance to win."My problems with him are his vision and tendency to dance instead of pounding a hole." - Harvey Wallbangers

Other than when I am drunk, I don't post on this site anymore because of Woody. But congrats anyway you syphilitic old Canuck.
And I am drunk.
And I was surprised as anyone to find out that Woody'sdaughter made money as a prostitute.
Which reminds me of a story: A Canadian, facing dire economic circumstances, sent his daughter out to sell her body so that he could maintain his daily rations of Molson and bacon. When she got home he asked how much she had made, and she said "100 dollars and ten cents". The old Canuck said, "Who gave you the worthless Canadian dime?" and she said, "They all did."[QUOTE=George Cumby] ...every draft (Ted) would pick a solid, dependable, smart, athletically limited linebacker...the guy who isn't doing drugs, going to strip bars, knocking around his girlfriend or making any plays of game changing significance.

After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

LOL counting all the words I've posted here @ Packerrats.....Ohh ...............................OK.
Thinking....thinking...thinking......Darn on second thought I have trouble counting my marbles.
superfan: It's really great to see you here and read your informative post.
** I agree with regards to your observation of Aaronn Rodgers and calling a TO on 3rd down plays.
Aaron throwing the ball deep downfield ! ** Not so much agree Vs the Arizona Secondary and given the foot speed of our WR's.
Certainly the degree of success and the Dom Capers 'D ' pressuring Carson Palmer; is the biggest hope factor and having a realistic chance of playing in the NFC Final Vs Carolina or Seattle.
Some personal commentary and your proven value superfan to Packerrats:
Your an outstanding knowledgeable NFL and Packer fan and I believe I express this accurately on behalf of the membership. I know this is a fact as I've had to compete with you in the Packerrats Pro Pickem. I respect you totally superfan.
**** We miss your solid input here.
Personally I understand the importance of priorities for a young man as I believe you are superfan. I was once right there too superfan. Busy busy way too busy. I had a load of responsibilities between a leadership role at work and play and added to that.... I was a Family man. In hindsight and just recently I've realized I often missed out on a better reality with my priority choices in my past. That's just my observation of my life in hindsight. Today I do what I most desire doing.
Part of that desire is to contribute to Packerrats something I hope is informative or my observations on the NFL as a whole. I hope I give rise to some hilarity and give an eclectic contribution as well.
I expect we'll see you superfan as we rip and tear and munch and crunch all that's the NFL Draft and predict what TT will do there and be totally wrong.
Thanks for contributing to this thread. I certainly appreciate you.

I do have a life too far away from Packerrats from late June through Nov. every year.
Now....when I get back here. I try to make up for that necessary neglect of my Packer home.

Your joke...Was that gal on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land by foot on land and canoe?
It seems she was away for a long time.
