Anyone who compares this to the 70s and 80s is either greatly exaggerating to make a point or they weren't Packers fans during that period. I might accept comparisons to the early 90s when they were building to that SB team, but saying it's like the 70s and 80s is utter crap.

I think a lot of our posters were still floating in their daddy's nutsack for those decades. Most of the people that actually make some sense in this forum were born before 1970 and Gunny fought in WWII so who the hell knows how old that camel smoking whiskey pickled bastard is. 🙂

Neiher funny or brilliant.
A work of lesser intelligence and lack of Packer fanhood.

The reason I was referring to the 70's and 80's was because we were ok with excuses just like we have become again. And you talk about building a super bowl team where is this comparison? I see us finishing either 9-7 if the Bears sit their starters or 8-8. So please once again before you start your the king shit comments try understanding the other posts.

70's and 80's motto was 'hey, theres always next year!'

Are you remembering something other than I? lol

In the 70's and the bulk of the 80's we got our head kicked in weekly.. and we came back the following week again and again with little hope. Yearly our highlight was to stay competitive with the Bears and the Vikings and hope to beat the Bucs and maybe split with the Lions.. lol.

Now.. every game we have a chance to win the freaking game.. right until the bitter end. Against the best the NFL has to offer.. Most of us are not confusing this team with a dominate one, hell we are stripped with injuries.

But yet, he we sit, in control of our own fate with the balance of the playoff before us.

There is no comparison.. none.

One, I don't understand that last sentence. Pretty sure I've never referred to myself as a king. Two, I was saying that the last few years have been a lot more comparable to the PRE-Superbowl teams of the early 90s - they've been close, but have yet to break out w/ a Superbowl-worthy team. Bottom line, you're constantly comparing this era to the 70s and 80s, and it's a lousy comparison. In the 70s and 80s the teams largely sucked and even a non-losing season was reason to celebrate.

What I am trying to say is back then we accepted excuses on why we didn't win, just like we are doing now. When was the last time we were in the Super Bowl? It was 14 years ago and before that it was 25 years I believe so its not like we are a powerhouse every year. So we end this year at 8-8 and alot will say "it was because we had so many injuries" but these are the same people that said we have such great depth on this team. And a 500 season this year shouldn't be a surprise after look a the trend.

2005 - 4-12
2006 - 8-8
2007 - 13-3
2008 - 6-10
2009 - 11-5

so of course we are do for another down year but watch out next year lol.

seriously? this team is like those of the 70's & 80's?? what a friggin joke. we didn't win back then - it just didn't happen. every sunday, you went in assuming we'd lose & if we won - partayyy!! then if you were as lucky as me to live in illinois, even if we DID win, all you got to hear ALL week long was how we got lucky & how much we suck, blah blah blah.

where's your pride? anyone willing to give up on this team is NOT a true fan - you are a fair weather fan. yes i am questioning fanhood here & i don't care if you like it or not. disgraceful.

FUCK!

Why can't it be @Denver!!!!!!!
