How do you not know that Green Bay is in Wisconsin? Anyone who remotely follows football should have known that! :crazy:

you should hear the people in london (english born) 85% of the people have no idea where chicago is in the states. And 98% have no idea where wisconsin is.

(I always say I'm from near chicago but that doesnt help - they just know chicago as a play or from the movies).

interesting article thou

lol - when we were in mexico, we were asked all the time where we were from. the minute we said illinois, they'd say "oh...chicago?" and then they'd go on & on about the chicago fire soccer team.

Hell, people from Minnesota say they hate North Dakota because the whole state is so flat. That is when I ask them how far west they've gone. 99% haven't been past Casselton. lol. ugh.

Wisconsin? That, you might be expected to know, but how on earth did Rhode Island become a state? I actually thought that it was a part of NY untill earlier this week.

His fricken Dad and Uncle played against the Packers so how the hell did he not know where green bay was. If he follows football at all he should know.

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

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) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

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

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
