This is an example of what is wrong with society. Anything to make a damn buck. 4% to charity? It should be all of it or whatever it is to offset the costs.


I don't knock those who are buying them, but I am knocking the one's making the product and only shelling out 4% ... that's just wrong.


Pathetic on how some people find any negative thing and put a twist on it to make people buy it. Oh look, a percent goes towards charity!! ooh buy this, buy this! It's using two unfortunate things together to make a dollar.

You gotta love a bunch of guys trying to make money off of something that hasn't even happened yet. Speculators make the world go around.

A sucker sure is born every minute.

"Hi! I'm a Green Bay Packer fan! I was worried that my cheesehead or hardhat or modified antlers didn't me make look like quite the rube that I wish to portray myself to be.

In order to complete my fashion ensemble, I have opted to put on this silly, ridiculous, #4 armband, having paid 5 bucks for it, thinking that the money was going to cancer research.

I think it hits the exact tone I was looking for--fashion-wise."

Ha! Funny you should mention that. My wife and I were at the Fort McCoy PX yesterday looking at cheese hats, and we were both ridiculing the idiocy of them. I consider myself a rabid Packers fan -- I spend too many hours a day breaking down every conceivable angle of the Packers seasons -- but I would never stoop to wearing something so puerile as a freaking CHEESEHEAD, even if they were supposedly invented in La Crosse.

I have two. I use both of them to mark our territory at the bar.

ON the bar, not on my head. It's kind of a lion marking his turf, or a dog, or a cat.

THIS area is CHEESEY, and not in an especially nice -way--more of a don't even think of bringing your bare bullshit/vikes smack...whatever here--we are drinking, now.

Fellow puker fans to right and left move them to
their "outside" in order to graphically establish the perimeter.



They are also pretty decent conversation pieces, because most had never actually seen one before. Most were surprised at how "substantial" they are---(most thought light foam-foam)

They are also handy in this instance because if the perimeter is wide enough (usually is) we cheesey types get the requisite number of TV's, including volume...in front of us --bartenders know this stuff here.

They do have real utility, if employed properly.

Those who purchase them are not in the wrong, not at all. Not in my opinion. It's the ones' profiting off of two unfortunate circumstances that piss me off.

Feel free to buy them up and show your support. I think that is a good thing to do.

HEY!!!!!!
EVERYTHING "CHEESEY" is nice!!! :thumbleft:

Now........i have never owned a "cheesehead" and have only tried them on at the store, to see what it was like.
BUT-I like the fact that something that was said to make fun of us, was turned around and made fun of by US.
"Call us cheeseheads, will you? Then we will BE cheeseheads! And Bears, Vikings and Lions fans, we still have more Super Bowl trophies then all 3 of your teams combined! Chew on THAT while you are making fun of us!!!"

I for one think they are cool, yes, the ones making the product sure know how to make a profit, wished I would have thought about that. But I would have put ALL towards charity. But I will be very proud wearing my arm band and very proud putting that magnet on my car.

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) : 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)

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
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
