The Official Opening Day Game Thread - Green Bay vs. Chicago

[GrnBay007]

took the dogs out for a walk just a little while ago and I couldn't believe the number of people out tailgating already!! Ok, it's officially hit me that it's GAME DAY !!!! We've waited SO long for this

GBR, is it raining there?

Cloudy 63 degrees WindENE 13 MPH. Great to have some autumn weather for the start of football season!

Muzz, if you're not a Pack fan first, but you post here, we'll name you a "pet troll", as opposed to a #*+&%$$§§" troll!

We have a pet queen troll named Rastak who we all love to death, we have a couple of pet Teddy trolls that have been hanging around of late.

We welcome all football fans to PR.

Being a Pet Troll is a term of endearment. If you hang around long enough, your Rat Name might even become "Pat Rat"!! That's something to shoot for, right???

Great, a Pat troll - WELCOME!

I AM SO FREAKIN' PUMPED! I swear, this is the most pumped I've ever been for a football season. Partially because, the older I get the more I understand the team. Over the last year I've progressed so much in knowledge, with a lot of credit due to this forum. The other part because last season after the Pack got off to their horrible start, my Dad really didn't want to spend $30 bucks every week to go to the bar and watch the Pack lose. So the last full game I watched was Oct.23 against the Vikes, with Edinger kicking the GW Field Goal. So I've been deprived of Packer regular season football for almost 11 months now. I need my fix.

LET'S GO PACK!!! LET'S KICK SOME ASS!!!!!!

I was tailgating near the Metrodome a couple years back at a Vikes-Bears game and the guys I was with were grilling Bear meat....that was kinda cool.

ladies and gentlemen, football is in the air !!!!!

We currently have 58 degrees in Green Bay, WI. Kick-off temp around 64 degrees under mostly cloudy skies. However, the clouds seem to be moving out and the blue skies are breaking through.....

a few shots taken while I was driving to the store just a few moments ago...







This is your resident reporter rat saying..... THE BEARS STILL SUCK !!! and... an extra "good luck" goes out to Seattle and Washington this opening weekend!!!!

Damn straight. I just hope we all don't jump off bridges and high buildings if our young team doesn't play like the '97 team today... the season's not over if we don't pull this one out.
