Thursday Night Season Opener

The Super Bowl Champions traditionally start of the season on Thursday Night with the first game of the season. MNF crew will do the game on ESPN.

There are 2 strong possibilities, The Saints or the Bears.

I don't think that game is scheduled with a non playoff team.

Which team do you think it will be and which team do you hope it will be?

I think it will be the Saints. I want it to be the Saints.

I don't want a Bear game cancelled because of the CBA troubles and have only one game between the two in Chicago. Also I don't want too much emotion for the season opener. There will be plenty just to have football going again. A game against the Bears that early would have too many players overexcited.

Saints or Bears.

I would prefer the Saints. Packers vs Bears games are always anything goes and sloppy as hell. I think Packers vs Saints would be a more exciting season opener.

Saints in the meeting of the last 2 Super Bowl winners would be awesome.

Aren't the season openers always the Super Bowl winner vs. the team they beat in the conference finals?

which means the opening game will be

Bears @ Packers and the Packers get their rings at the start.

Personally I don't like a great match-up to start the season, as it doesn't mean much... but put it mid season it could mean a ton...

Also I don't like facing the Bears... as said they're always sloppy games which the Bears are able to keep it close even when the Packers are a lot more talented team... and sometimes are able to win them if the Packers make just one too many mistakes, which they always make mistakes against the Bears for what ever reason...

The Vikings. I want to rub it in to Vikesrule, then say "I told you so" when the Vikings get beaten by 30+ points. Their OL sucks. Formo's in denial.

Isn't it normally the Super Bowl winner vs the team they beat in their championship game?

They wont always have that team on their schedule. I know they did that for Saints v Vikings but when was the last time they had that match up before last season?

dfosterf (10m) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (16m) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (17m) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (19m) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (21m) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (22m) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (27m) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (28m) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (29m) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based

beast (30m) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?

dfosterf (1h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (1h) : 39 companies so far that I bet no one has ever heard of.

dfosterf (1h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

dfosterf (1h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...

beast (7h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @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 (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : 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
