Happy birthday buddy! I know you kids are going through rough times, but in the words of my dad.. "FIGHT!"

I heard a story where a guy crashed in an airplane up in the mountains one time.. Landed in a lake, so he ended up surviving the crash. After realizing he had no radio or a way to contact help, he took the pistol that he had with him and took his life. A few hours later a rescue chopper found his plane and his body. Moral? Sometimes when it feels like you can't go on any longer, you are closer to the end of the tunnel than you think. You just gotta hang in there.

dang it - i KNEW your birthday was early in july but i couldn't remember the exact date. shame on me!!!

happy birthday, my dear friend alan. i know all of those things you were talking about are difficult & sometimes you don't know why you're still here but let me tell you something...the game that you, LJ, my dad & i went to was a memory i will never forget. your being there made an extremely emotional night for my dad & i much more bearable & enjoyable. we both knew it was our last trip to lambeau together. i was near tears almost every second we were there...until YOU & LJ showed up. you helped me take a deep breath & actually enjoy that final game together with my dad. THAT my dear friend is ONE MINISCULE reason that you are still here.

Happy Birthday, Cheesey!

Hey, you're one of the few...the proud...the old-timers who got to see the Lombardi era...

Hang in there, buddy. Don't know if it's worth an awful lot, but you'd be missed around here by a bunch of people.

Yeah, Cheesey.

Echo what everyone above said. You're a great guy who made me feel welcome when I first joined this board. I hope you get through what life is giving you. Take care, my friend.

Happy belated Birthday, Cheesey old man! Hang in there 'cause I want you to get to 68 so you can be the same age as me. I'm on a holding pattern now, so until further notice, I'm 68 and gonna stay that.
Best wishes,

Bob

Happy belated birthday Cheesey! Life can be rough sometimes, but you gotta keep fighting. Like some, I was one of the members who felt welcome on this board when I first joined because of you.

I'll say a prayer for you and your wife. Stay strong.

Thank you. ALL of you.
You don't know how much the words of encouragement mean.
I haven't given up yet.
My wife has been out "pounding the pavement" for a job. Had a promising lead today, and it fell through.
I guess sometimes i don't realize that maybe i do matter to some people.
Again, thank you.
I'll keep you posted on how things are from time to time.

Cheesey-

Here is a link to the local paper's classified that run each week on a Tuesday..

http://www.centralwinews.com/starnewsshopper/shopper.html

Not sure what type of job LJ is looking for... but I have some contacts around in the manufacturing realm if that is the area... rent/homes are affordable enough some even out in the country..

If of interest.. PM and we can go from there.. I would be willing to drive down.. pick you up for a couple days visit up here and let you see what the area is all about.. I have little doubt the you would enjoy it.. not sure on your wife and how attached you are to that area, but it is a quieter life up this way.

Zero2Cool (14-Feb) : Packers are hiring Luke Getsy as senior offensive assistant.

Martha Careful (12-Feb) : I would love to have them both, esp. Crosby, but either might be too expensive.

Zero2Cool (12-Feb) : Keisean Nixon is trying to get Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams lol

Mucky Tundra (11-Feb) : Yeah where did it go?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : or did you resctrict access to that topic?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : why did you remove the Playoff topic?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
