If I were you guys I'd keep the porn on the Ray server.

I can see the comptroller down in Brazil:

Como o inferno voc soletra Nitschke?

How the hell do you spell Nitschke?
in Portuguese, lol

Let's face it - Green Bay isn't exactly a cosmopolitan city. It might be a haven for Packers fans, but not all football players are Packers fans - they play football for a paycheck.

There's really no real reason to go to Green Bay (if you're not from there) unless you are a Packers fan. They are the biggest attraction, otherwise it is an ordinary, average, uninteresting town in the middle of the country.

You know, I walk around in Perth, Australia, some 11000 miles from Green Bay, and see more Packers jerseys on the streets than I do any other NFL team.

To be honest though, I can't comprehend how much love for the Packers there is - I mean, I've heard about it, but I've never seen it. But hearing stories about the fans, the team and the tradition just makes me all the more proud to follow such a franchise. I haven't taken a walk around Green Bay or toured Lambeau field. But I will one day. I will one day.

my comment on that site:

"keep in mind? keep in mind nothing. i'm sorry but i don't care how hard working he is (and how do you know all of these personal attributes, are you his mother?) the guy isn't a "class act" and he most certainly is not "humble." people who could be described with such words don't open their mouths when they shouldn't...in fact they do the opposite. that's what being classy and humble is all about: not appearing like a juvenile jack-ass in front of the world.

that said, i grew up in appleton. i went to punk shows in green bay as a teen. i moved to milwaukee, boston, nyc and now chapel hill (raleigh-durham, triangle) and while green bay isn't a very self-selling city, how dense do you have to be not to understand Lambeau and the only organization in the NFL owned by the city? and you have the lack of foresight to actually talk smack about that? to the media?

dumb kid deserves every bit of criticism he gets."

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

my comment on that site:

Lifelong Packer fan. Mostly an east coast guy. They worry about their reputation in Green Bay. They fear players will not come there because of some of the perceptions of folks like Rice.

I love going to that city and Lambeau when I get the chance. It's one hell of a lot warmer there than most NFL cities, and if you don't understand what I mean by that...chances are you have never been there.

Thank you Andrew on behalf of my many friends in Green Bay, along with my many fellow Packer fan friends all over this world. That is our town, too, wherever we live, and we are proud of it.

That sums it up for me. The people of Green Bay are most definitely a part of the Green Bay Packers, just as Zero stated.

Rice apologized on his twitter, writing something about "not judging a book by its cover." So basically he's still saying that Green Bay looks like a big pile of crap, but he suspends his judgment because it may not be as bad as it appears. :lol:

Zero2Cool (14-Feb) : Packers are hiring Luke Getsy as senior offensive assistant.

Zero2Cool (12-Feb) : Keisean Nixon is trying to get Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams lol

Mucky Tundra (11-Feb) : Yeah where did it go?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : or did you resctrict access to that topic?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

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

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

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
