I am extremely prepared to lose to the Vikings this weekend. How the rest of you are not is baffling. Our worst nightmare was realized this year. Has anyone's life changed?

As for Greg Jennings, he's made incredible coin per catch and per yard this season. Good for him, and let him talk all the smack he wants too, it really doesn't mean much.

It used to bother me to miss a game but again, its no big deal any more. I'd much rather throw the football around with my nephews for three hours during a game than to watch the game. I love the Packers as much as I ever did but there are so many more important things in life to worry about a bunch of overgrown kids getting paid hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars to play a game that I used to love playing as a kid.

Some people prefer to focus on the negative aspects all the time. Perhaps it makes losing a game easier to handle. I'd rather be optimistic, yeah it may hurt a bit more when they lose but it make the week leading up to the game a lot more enjoyable.

That said I do not expect the Packers to lose this week. Maybe its because I hate the vikings so much that I think they are a really bad team but you know what? They are a really bad team. I think the Packers with Scott Tolzien are better than the vikings and I expect them Packers to win. I won't be surprised if they lose and I won't be happy about it but it won't ruin my day or my week or my life like it used to.

Craig who?
I don't follow the Vikings unless I want to know who's coming off the board 8 or 10 spots ahead of my team on draft day.

Greg may only be the Vikings 2nd best WR this year but at least he doesn't have to worry about "walking on eggshells" anymore like in GB. He's such a great guy deferring to his teammates so much this year.

I agree with you. I will believe the Packers can win without Rodgers when they actually prove they can.
All this "we can do it" doesn't mean anything if they don't actually DO it.

Without Rodgers it's like we are stuck in football purgatory. Every game day I'm not even excited because the team seems so stagnant. Like cmon, SOMEBODY step up!! As for Greg...Rodgers going down basically covers up any of that stuff.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.
beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.
