I just emailed my fellow Fantasy League Managers with the following letter.

Please be advised that you all are included in my sentiment and are included as my new adoptive family

The league, (NFFL) is a "old school" 16 team touchdown only league that has been in

existence since the fall of 1987.

Here is the letter that I sent to the other 15 Team owners.

The response was written in response to my declaration of mine informing them of my becoming a Packer fan after having been a Bears fan since 1967.

I am serious. No punking.

here it is......

You are going to see your mom?

Eddo,

Outstanding Comeback! What you replied really did make me Laugh Out Loud :)

But I'm gunna guess you know what I meant.

I wasn't joking about this, my cardiac guy and I had a heart to heart (No pun Intended), and best case scenario with my heart's present condition, ten years is a realistic run to expect. I'm neither being darkly dramatic, or overly "religious" with what I'm about to say.

I'm just not afraid of this diagnosis. I know where I'm headed....

I'm good with a decade of life left. (And if at any time, any of you maniacs want to discuss privately getting on board with "Team Christ", and want to firm up you final destination living place email me privately @ Bggrzzzz@gmail or call me at (715) 207-0249 and I'll fill you in on the info) I'm just sayin' 😉 I remember Bill Adler's plight, and that whole story is still very much alive in my memory how sudden he left us and the NFFL.

I still miss Wild Bill and I still pray for Him and his family.

I just am going to try to make those ten years mean something to everyone while I still have time left to effect some modicum of difference in the lives of those around me.

Now, that being said, I'm on to Gary's questions and observations...

No Gary, April, my wife, is not a Packer backer. As a matter of fact she doesn't like football of any kind, which is just how I like it.

I have never lived any part of my life with a woman who liked football. It's so much easier having a spouse who is not a football fan, trust me.

As far as the respect thing, well "Uncle Gar" you'll get over it. I just can't take Bears management anymore, and Cutler is Jeff George reincarnated. He piles up personal stats but NEVER get's his teams to the "promised land".

That brings me to Aaron Rodgers. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I really like and respect that guy. He's just a Good, genuine guy.

And one last thing, I believe He is the best Packer quarterback I have ever seen play in Green bay. That includes "Saint Bart the 15th" and "The Gunslinger #4", If for no other reason than that that is why I plan to Cheer the Team in GB, for the duration of my days on earth.

So I'll close this reply by saying that I hope all of you In our NFFL Fantasy league, yes even The Donkeyboy" my arch enemy 😉, have a great and blessed Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year and know that I love all of you, especially the Founding fathers of the NFFL.

Thanks to all of you for being my friends,

Carry on Men!

God Bless, everyone!

Wow... that starts as a very deep letter followed up by the reality that is Jay Cutler and the marriage they struck with him. I truly think Trestman was getting on some very thin ice for a bit there.. probably still wandering close to that line even now.

There are arguments to be made that Rodgers is the best of the Packer QB's.. just like one could mount a discussion for Starr or Favre.

But welcome aboard.. and here is to you beating the prognosis.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
