Additionally, our defense may give up a lot of yards, but we don't give up a lot of points. Even though our D is ranked #28 to their #6, we still give up 2.6 less PPG to the opposing offense (20.1 and 22.7).

A few games ago, I missed the entire first drive that resulted in a Finley touchdown and Vikings week it didn't cut in until the 2ndish play of the Packers first drive, after the Vikings touchdown.

I want more 1:00 pm games!!

But at least 4:15 isn't 7:30 or 8:30. Because that means I have to deal with Motormouth Collinsworth or completely useless ESPN types. The only good thing about evening NFL football (other than the Packers, of course) is Faith Hill's legs.
