    No. It's French actress Madeleine LeBeau. You might remember her from Casablanca. She played the barfly, Yvonne, that Rick threw out of his café early in the movie. Very beautiful and classy lady. (I'm a huge fan of movies of that era.)

    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.

        Isn't that what Packer fans says every year?

          Don't know...but a piece of interesting trivia. LeBeau actually lived the life of the Ingrid Bergman character in the film. She and her husband barely escaped Paris ahead of the Nazi invaders by means of obtaining a transit visa and traveling to the US via Lisbon. So, when she shouted "Vive la France" as the French loyalists sang their anthem, her tears and emotion were heartfelt.

            Capers tried that with Dix. Problem was, Dix is a sloth and he lacks cat quickness. Due to his lack of quickness and speed, Dix is often seen gambling on where to attack, which plenty of QBs have exploited.

            Dix should be playing the strong instead of the free.

                Ah yes, Casablanca is one of my favorites too. I am a big fan of movies from that era too!
