2. Not all of their fans are as loyal as advertised. The Packers have a season-ticket waiting list of about 86,000, and a turnover of about only 90 tickets a year — meaning it might take nearly 1,000 years to get a seat. But plenty of greedy Green Bay fans this week have been reselling their playoff tickets on StubHub and similar secondary market sites.

There were still more than 1,600 tickets for sale Friday on StubHub alone, ranging anywhere from $139 to $12,936 for Suite 4000, whatever that is. In fact, that concept is so obnoxious it becomes our next reason . . .

3. The Packers have a Suite 4000, not a suite-for-thousands.

Suite 4000 is on the West side of the North endzone. It is and end unit.

(columnist’s note: is “offerees” even a word?)



Yes

5. Where’s the “B”?

An organization must be pretty arrogant to believe one letter is good enough to represent two proper nouns.



That's a bit rich coming from a New Yorker.

Er...what was with all the Gint fans in the first row giving low fives to the Gints after the game?

Fucking Gints.

I don't want any of these four teams left to win.

Giants: NYers. Arrogant assholes. Bleh.
49ers: Harbaugh. Alex Smith. No one should have more super bowls than the packers. Bleh.
Ravens: Yuck. Harbaugh Deux. Ray Lewis. Bleh.
NE: Bleh Bleh Bleh.

Oh well. I have a lot of work backed up. It isn't as if I can't find anything to do on weekends.

Anyone at Lambeau, why did it seem like on TV that there were a ton of Giants fans there? Was there? Like when Cruz caught balls, I could hear the Crrruz chat on TV. Why do people sell tickets to the other team's fans, its GB, can't you find a buyer that is a GB fan?

beast (10h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?
Zero2Cool (10h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.
Zero2Cool (10h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (12h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it
beast (12h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (12h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
