The halftime ceremony was magical. How could you not get emotional as both Brett Favre and Bart Starr returned home? Unfortunately, the game did not match the feeling of the halftime. Another game, and the Packers are licking their wounds for a fourth time in five games, and we're all wondering if the team has

They ALWAYS do this. Then they right the ship and barely squeak into the playoffs before shitting themselves again.

When last January happened, I just ASSUMED that Mike was gonna hold these guys accountable, but I guess continuously shitting yourself is ok, as long as we still win.

If you accept it when we score more points than the other team, then you have to accept it now. Because that's why we're where we're at, right now.

Too much emotion is put into the first two/three quarters of the regular season.

Things get real December 13th.
12/13 vs Cowboys
12/20 at Raiders
12/27 at Cardinals
1/3 vs Vikings

They win three out of five and they will most certainly be in the playoffs. And as we have seen so many times recently, the hottest team goes the distance, not always the team that won the most regular season games or was hot the first half the regular season.

Mostly agree with you on this. The reason I am not so sure of a hot streak coming - the offense has not shown any improvement over the course of the season outside of Lacy. This looks like an 8-8 team with all the drops and (strangely) off target passes.

I believe we would only be at 4 wins if not for the defense bailing the offense out. The sky isn't falling, but the clouds are hanging very low.

If you allow self shitting, you get self shitting, such as what happened last January.

When Pride Still Mattered, is the title of a fairly recent book about Vince Lombardi. On a national stage, Lombardi made sure that the pride, that he and his coaching staff had instilled in his players, through discipline and hard work, would help carry them through in tough situations. He, and his players developed a mentality of hating to lose and not accepting defeat. He would teach, harass, rant, rave, and do whatever it took to produce a winner. He especially hated poor performance and losing in front of the public eye. Pride mattered to him and his players learned it meant something too. He held coaches and player alike, accountable ALL the time, even on the sidelines. There was passion and fire in his bones and it was contagious...his players caught it too. It led them to excellence. Mike Holmgren shared some of that passion. I remember him grabbing Favre's jersey on the sideline and getting his attention. Pride still mattered. Last nite on a national stage, when pride should have mattered, it didn't. Now we have a team that has lost confidence in its leadership. McCarthy stands on the sideline, rolls his eyes and shakes his head, Capers sleepwalks, and Clements looks confused. Players are looking for leadership and aren't finding it. I hope we get back to the place where "pride still matters",

They will either get it fixed or it will stay broken.

Now come back with one of your cynical, smart-ass, tired old remarks.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
