when people tell me "you're just like your dad", there is no higher compliment i could possibly receive. (not taking away anything from my mom because she's been a HUGE force in my life as well. i don't know what i would do without her. she's my best friend.) my dad was highly regarded by our community for many reasons. but basically he was just a small farmer who treated everyone the way he wanted to be treated. pretty damn simple, isn't it?

I wish I had Raider Pride's charisma and speaking ability.

I wish I was as funny as Cheesey or Vikesrule.

I wish I could explain football as well as someone like Pack93z, Longtimefan, Warhawk, or several other people who can explain intricate details that go over my head.

I wish I could find stats as fast as Dhazer or Zero can.

I wish I had a fan as loyal as Heather, and if I did have only one fan that loyal, I wouldn't have given up on my dreams of being a musician.

Funny thing is sometimes I wish I was older by a decade so I could have lived through at least some of the Lombardi years. I started being a Packers fan in '76 when we were horrible and Bart Starr, I only knew him as a Coach of a perennial losing team (except in '82).

Zombie, thanks so much for the compliment!! I believe in people and support whatever they decide to do in this lifetime, because life is way to short. We should all do what makes us happy, even if it dont turn out the way we expect, we only live once. 🙂

Zombie, you have always been such a great friend to me. I enjoy so much all your posts on here, you make me stop and think about life sometimes. Don't ever cut yourself short my friend, its never to late to be a musician if that is what makes you happy. GO for it, I would support you 100%. +1 Great post!!!

ok - humility achieved, zombie. but...i think this thread could go much further. if you had one wish or well maybe two - what would your wish be?

mine would be another 15 years with my dad so that he could be a positive influence in my boys' lives.

anybody else?

My wish would be that my Mom would get better, I do know that this isn't possible with Alzheimer's. But all I can do is remember how she used to be, the good times our family has shared, this helps me so much in dealing with the pain. I also have another wish that all my family/friends and everyone that has touched me in someway, have long and healthy lives.

It IS simple, for sure. But so many people don't DO it.
My Dad was just a foreman in a printing factory. But when he died, the funeral home was PACKED. Standing room only, all the way to the front doors. And it was during a blizzard! It showed me just how much my Dad touched the lives of others.

I only met your Dad once Illy, but it's funny, you can feel what a person is like just being around them. Your Dad gave off that kind of "vibe". A loving man.........and there's no better then that!

On a kind of funny note Illy.......everytime i see the Arizona Cards play, I see their kicker (i think his first name is Neil) Rackers........and i think of your Dad.
Do you remember why????

beast (1h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (9h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (14h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (16h) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I literally just said it.
