foster I would be satisfied if Raji was the lead blocker like last week and knocked urlacher on his rump.
but a raji TD would be oh so sweet. Especially if they were already up by 14.

This is mostly for my fellow geezers--

I would like some pure retribution for the fridge scoring on us in 1985.

The end of this game, with the Pack dominating, will do nicely.

No statements of wanting to beat the Bares as the big goal from our HC, no "shuffles", don't even spike the friggin' ball when we score.

Just send B.J. Raji right up the GD middle. Touchdown, bitches.

It would say to the world that the Green Bay Packers as an organization remember Ditka, those clowns and their arrogance, we remember Lovie and his priorities, the luck and good fortune (in the collective opinion of GB Packer fans everywhere 🙂 ) that got the Bears to this point, and just a generalized "Fuck you, too" to the Bares fans, "We remember, assholes."

The whole football world would "get it" as far as a statement from the Pack- in about 2 seconds. I would put the over/under at about 1 minute for the network to re-show the fridge doing it to us.

That would add to the lore of this rivalry immensely, and Foster would have some of his revenge. I have a long memory. :tongue3:

God, it would be beautiful. :thumbleft:

DFoster--being one of the geezers, I remembered. I posted this in the Give it Up for McCarthy thread after the Raji game, but am posting it again here for those who weren't around during the mid 80s...

And anti-Mike McCarthy people, come on, admit it. Mike McCarthy did some really cool shit today. That call with Raji in there that Kuhn ran for a TD, that's downright awesome.

I would love to see that formation again this week. Payback for some old insults (not that I hold a grudge, or anything...lol)

I know you remember the Bears from the 80s, Zombie, but some of the younger guys may not remember William "Refrigerator" Perry...

The Packers portion of the video starts about 2:00 in...

Wiki-- George Cumby

I started calling George Cumby "Gumby" after that...

...In the 1985 season Cumby gained national attention in a negative way. When rookie defensive tackle William Perry was put in the offensive lineup for the Chicago Bears it was Cumby who was twice "flattened" by Perry on lead blocks for Walter Payton.[3] Later in that season, Cumby was beat on a short pass route by Perry that the "Fridge" carried into the end zone, again an embarrassment for Cumby.[4]

Cumby was cut by the Packers the following Fall on August 18, 1986,
...

Yep.

Raji.

Right

Up

the gut. (Or right down their throat, if you prefer that terminology.)

+1 to MacBob for confirming that I'm not the only bitter old coot around here, lol-- I missed that when originally posted.

Even better would be if said Raji TD was preceded by a Bear TD being called back on a replay review because Cutler was past the line of scrimmage.

And if the Raji TD made the score 63-0.

(remembering a certain game that Ditka always whines about and another Bear game where the evil Bears put up 62 on the Pack.)

Back to nick names, lets pay homage to the Acme Meat Packing Co and call the D line the Slaughter House.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

Thanks for the geezer shout-out....I sometime think that those on this forum who's sperm count is higher than their IQ just don't appreciate history and tradition. :icon_smile: :icon_smile:

Raji scoring a td would be one of the great "screw you Bears" moments in rivalry history.

One of the great travesties in that whole year was Perry getting a TD in the SB and Walter Peyton never getting a sniff at scoring.

As much as I hate The Bears, I respected Walter, shame on Ditka for not giving him the ball.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

packerfanoutwest (4h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (4h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (4h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (4h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (5h) : Who? What?

beast (14h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (19h) : meh

Zero2Cool (23h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (23h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (23h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
