Mike Vandermause is 1000 times the Packers fan than he is a journalist.
A Homer's Homer if you will.

That article that he wrote after the Packers loss to the Cardinals was downright embarrassing.
All he did was cry and wail over how he refs screwed the Packers....nothing about how the Packers vaunted "playoff caliber defense" that he himself had just praised weeks before, allowed 45 points in regulation play.
But I must admit, his melodramatic skills are superb.

"On one of the biggest stages of the NFL season, in front of a national television audience, in one of the most dramatic games in playoff history, the officials flat out choked on the final play of the Arizona Cardinals 51-45 overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers.

Their miscue in the most critical moment will haunt the Packers for months, if not years.

The gory details will live in team infamy......."

Have you ever listened to Paul Allen call a Viking game? That's a homer for you.

Well old Sid is damn near 90, a fixture in the Twin Cities sports scene, and as such is allowed some lee way

With that said.... In the world of sports writing, Sid Hartman is the crazy uncle who lives in the back bedroom and has been known to show up for dinner sans pants. Yes, he once confused skater Tara Lipinski with Monica Lewinsky.
Once in a radio interview, he continually referred to NBA star Spud Webb as Spider Webb.
Reading Sid is like listening to one of your Grandpa's crazy stories; it can only end in one of three ways: 1. You get up and leave, 2. He falls asleep, 3. Death.

As to my point....I have no point.
I just like to stir the pot from time to time. But you cheeseheads and your reactions are getting to easy, I'll have work on my technique. ::wink:

You may now continue with your discussion on Rodgers.

If you want an excruciating Queens homer, look no further than that puke Kevin Seiffert who obviously blew someone to get a writing gig at ESPN.

Watching other teams scrabble around desperately for even half decent QBs makes me so grateful we have Rodgers.

When you factor in his age, his talent and his character/leadership there are few better QBs in the league.

The very best (Manning, Brady, Brees etc) are all in their 30s. Who knows how much longer they'll be at the top of their game.

If I was starting a franchise today Rodgers would be my choice of QB.

We are fortunate indeed. #4 gave us many years where we did not worry about who would start at QB and Rodgers has given us a nearly seemless transition to another great QB.

I look forward to Rodgers proving himself even more in the years to come.
