AP/EP/CP/EIEIO:
Today Minnesota Vikings owner Ziggy Wilf contacted Green Bay Packers wide receiver Donald Driver.
Even though Driver is still under contract with the Packers.

When questioned about this, Wilf said "I contacted Driver to ask him if he would be willing to let us borrow his "Dancing With the Stars" mirror ball trophy for a few months. We have this HUGE Super Bowl trophy case, with nothing in it but dust. We figured if Driver would let us borrow his trophy, we could put it in the trophy case, and just turn it around so no one would see the "Dancing With the Stars" name. Then, we would have a plaque made up that said it was the Vikings first Super Bowl trophy. As no Vikings fan has ever seen a REAL Super Bowl trophy, we figured we could pull it off. It might just bring some people in and give us some backing for our new stadium."
Driver could not be reached for his reaction.

(Sorry....i couldn't resist!) LOL!

I am a woman and I love football.

Nice one, Cheesey.

Now that Favre's retired, I can't see Driver on MN anyways. More likely da Bears will make a play for him. He'd be a better fit there.

Did Driver actually win a DWTS trophy? I don't have TV so don't know. (well, I have a TV but it's attached to a DVD player and not hooked up to anything).

Dur Dur look at me, I'm unique, I don't have a TV and rather than check the interGoogle I'll tell everyone as such! 🙂

Yes, he won, it's even been posted in the shoutbox. Oh. Em. GEEEE

Seriously, do you really need a TV now? All the good shows you can buy or watch through the library. I'm watching True Blood and Mad Men on DVD. No commercials.

To catch Packers games, I go to a sports bar. I really don't think I'm that unique.

And no, I didn't see that chat post.

I don't like watching Packers in a bar. Too many idiots. Plus I like chatting with people on the site during the game and take notes occasionally when I feel like writing an article.

I do agree, having a TV isn't really needed, yet people always give me this surprised look when they find out I don't have Cable of any kind. My TV is used for the occasional video game, movie night with my daughter and Packers games. At the rate it's used, I figure I'll retire before it does.

Nah, that's fucked up.

People without TV's are usually messed up in the head.

It could be a coincidence, but I really don't think so.

Maybe 5 years from now it's all good, but chances are that if you are rollin' without the tube in 2012, I got even odds you are a fr
iggin' nut-job, and at a bare-minimum, eccentric.

Yeah, they usually end up being unibombers or serial killers of some kind. We've got seven TV's scattered throughout the house and three computers.

Martha Careful (16h) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (16h) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Rude!

beast (20h) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooo 8 point game with 4 minutes to go!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
