You can also look at it that the only 6th seed to make it to the SuperBowl, won the damn thing!! It's a glass half full of Koolaid thing!

Somebody's got to be first to do something, can't think of a better team to do it than the Pack.

We're already up on the 2007 Giants. Prior to the Giants in 2007, no 5th seed had made it to the Superbowl, and no 5th seed had won the Superbowl.

edit: At least for us a 6th seed has won it already.

BUT, we still need to get by the Bears this weekend. I'm going to continue to focus on beating the Bears like a rug, and hopefully, we'll have the opportunity to repeat the performance two weeks in a row.

Yeah, it can be done. The Steelers did it in the AFC. Home field in the playoffs is not as big of an advantage as it used to be. What I don't like is that if the Packers make it they will have to beat the Bears twice in a row. It's hard to beat a team twice in a row. The loser of the first game usually plays with more fire in the second game.

Yeah, it's difficult to do, but think how demoralizing it would be to the Bears to get spanked twice in a row, once at Lambeau and then again at Soldier Field. They'd have all offseason to think about it. SWEET!

Although the Giants were a 5th seed, I believe, they did have 3 road games en route to their SB. I think Pitt and maybe the Raiders??? did the same this decade. Furthermore, what team really worries you about going on the road for? The Packers played the top AFC team and damn near beat them on the road, and either did, or damn near beat the top 3 NFC teams on the road (Atl, Phi, Chi).

My point is that the Packers have demonstrated the ability to play with any team in the league anywhere.

dfosterf (9h) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (10h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (10h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (10h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (11h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (11h) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (11h) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (11h) : *years

Mucky Tundra (11h) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (11h) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (11h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (11h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (11h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (12h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (14h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (15h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (15h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Both LB Quay Walker and Rookie DB Micah Robinson have passed their physicals

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
