Man...thinking of all the people we don't see here anymore. Vikesrule, Trippster, Montana Bob, Formo. And the list goes on and on.
I wonder how Formo is liking the Vikings season? I wish he would come here again. He (and Vikesrule) were great guys.
I wonder how all the old members are doing?

I realize there are some great somewhat new guys here. The fact that old members are still thought of should be seen as a good thing. It means that some real friendships have been developed here.
I hope that someday guys here will remember me fondly.

I have only met two members from this forum, Cheesey being the most memorable, both at the same game; the snow bowl playoff game against the Seahawks.
I met Cheesey inside the stadium and the other guy (possibly Chuck something) at a tailgate party near Kroll's West.
I've been to many games since then and travel to Green Bay quite often.
It would be nice to meet more of you members.
Being an old retired guy, this site is about my only hobby and I thoroughly enjoy it.

It would be nice to do a get together with members. I live in Green Bay so it should e easy for me to attend.

My wife and I were there for the game and brought a few things. There were a few others whom I sadly don't recall. What I do remember was the food was very good.

What I don't even vaguely remember is why I wasn't there.😕

I remember that Wayne! It was the game against the Bengals. The Bengal mascots came over by us and I had my picture taken with them.
Trippster was there, and longtime fan (Jim). I don't remember who else was there.
And Yoop, it was fun meeting you at the "snow bowl" game. I still have the picture of you and me before the game ( and the snow) started.
A meeting of members this year would be fun! If it gets set up, hopefully I can make it there.

TRIPPSTER!!

I have been trying to remember who the Grillmaster was. I think he brought some great chilli too.

You got your picture taken with one of the 60s Packers too. He was wearing his SB ring.

Yup, Trippster did the cooking. He brought jambalaya too.
And the pic was with Dave Robinson!
I met him and Ron Kramer a couple years later at the Wisconsin sports show, and spent a couple hours with them talking about the "glory years". Got to try on his super bowl two ring, and Kramers 1961 championship ring. Also met Boyd Dowler, Donny Anderson and Bob Long there.

I got to try on 3 of the four super bowl rings . Robinsons #2, Ray Nitsckes SB one, and SB 31 ring of one of the board of directors.
Only missing the last one!
That my next goal!
Now HOW I get it done, I'm not sure.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (1h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (4h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (4h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (4h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (4h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (4h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (4h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (4h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (4h) : 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 (5h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (5h) : 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 (5h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (6h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (6h) : 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 (6h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (6h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (6h) : 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 (7h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (7h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (7h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (7h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (8h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (9h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (9h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (10h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (10h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (10h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (10h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (10h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (10h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (10h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (10h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (10h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (10h) : 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 (10h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (10h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (10h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (11h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (11h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (11h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (11h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (11h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
