Fly in to Appleton. 20 minute drive.

I wish I could go. But I couldn't even
afford the gas to get to Green Bay.

It's tempting to go, but I'm just beginning to feel better after fighting off an irritating cough. I don't want to get sick again. Do I want to risk it? 🤔

I would be going no question about it if I didn't have the girls this weekend. I'd buy two tickets and then force a friend or cousin or uncle or my dad to go with me lol.

If my girls had ever been to a game before, I would bring them, but being 10 and 12 years old and their first game being single digit temperatures would surely sour them on the Packers. We don't want that.

Yea 1200 round trip from florida as well. Damn was hoping this might be my chance to sporadically get up there! My girlfriend gave me her blessing to search for flights if they were in the 3-500 range. Definitely not :/ Can't believe they're so high!

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Sellout criteria has been met. The game will NOT be blacked out. Not that anyone thought it would.

I think this lack of sell out by the fans really goes to what was said in the division championship thread about us fans being spoiled with success. I think 15 years ago this game sells out within an hour. Being the 5th consecutive year of the Packers in the playoffs, fans have been spoiled.

How Chicago would never try to sell out 80,000 seats for every regular season game. That it is easy to claim that it would never happen to the Bears when they are done for the season. And finally that Packer fans didn't expect both the Bears and Lions to fail so big the last half the year. yada yada yada.) He had no reply. [grin1]

While I was putting this montage together I was thinking the same thing. It wouldn't have happened if they didn't have so much success in the past.

My only issue with buying tickets and going is, if I go, I will forced to take my Wife. And who wants to sit next to a 49er fan in Lambeau.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Martha Careful (13h) : Why is it that the Rams rookies can contribute right away but our first and second year guys are too young to contribute in a meaningful way

Martha Careful (14h) : Yes, Saquon Barkley had a very nice game. But he has a much better offensive line in front of him. I'll take Josh Jacob's. I love the guy

Zero2Cool (10-Jan) : 𝕏avier McKinney First Team All-Pro

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : HUMP DAY

beast (8-Jan) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (8-Jan) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : 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
