foster I would be satisfied if Raji was the lead blocker like last week and knocked urlacher on his rump.
but a raji TD would be oh so sweet. Especially if they were already up by 14.

This is mostly for my fellow geezers--

I would like some pure retribution for the fridge scoring on us in 1985.

The end of this game, with the Pack dominating, will do nicely.

No statements of wanting to beat the Bares as the big goal from our HC, no "shuffles", don't even spike the friggin' ball when we score.

Just send B.J. Raji right up the GD middle. Touchdown, bitches.

It would say to the world that the Green Bay Packers as an organization remember Ditka, those clowns and their arrogance, we remember Lovie and his priorities, the luck and good fortune (in the collective opinion of GB Packer fans everywhere 🙂 ) that got the Bears to this point, and just a generalized "Fuck you, too" to the Bares fans, "We remember, assholes."

The whole football world would "get it" as far as a statement from the Pack- in about 2 seconds. I would put the over/under at about 1 minute for the network to re-show the fridge doing it to us.

That would add to the lore of this rivalry immensely, and Foster would have some of his revenge. I have a long memory. :tongue3:

God, it would be beautiful. :thumbleft:

DFoster--being one of the geezers, I remembered. I posted this in the Give it Up for McCarthy thread after the Raji game, but am posting it again here for those who weren't around during the mid 80s...

And anti-Mike McCarthy people, come on, admit it. Mike McCarthy did some really cool shit today. That call with Raji in there that Kuhn ran for a TD, that's downright awesome.

I would love to see that formation again this week. Payback for some old insults (not that I hold a grudge, or anything...lol)

I know you remember the Bears from the 80s, Zombie, but some of the younger guys may not remember William "Refrigerator" Perry...

The Packers portion of the video starts about 2:00 in...

Wiki-- George Cumby

I started calling George Cumby "Gumby" after that...

...In the 1985 season Cumby gained national attention in a negative way. When rookie defensive tackle William Perry was put in the offensive lineup for the Chicago Bears it was Cumby who was twice "flattened" by Perry on lead blocks for Walter Payton.[3] Later in that season, Cumby was beat on a short pass route by Perry that the "Fridge" carried into the end zone, again an embarrassment for Cumby.[4]

Cumby was cut by the Packers the following Fall on August 18, 1986,
...

Yep.

Raji.

Right

Up

the gut. (Or right down their throat, if you prefer that terminology.)

+1 to MacBob for confirming that I'm not the only bitter old coot around here, lol-- I missed that when originally posted.

Even better would be if said Raji TD was preceded by a Bear TD being called back on a replay review because Cutler was past the line of scrimmage.

And if the Raji TD made the score 63-0.

(remembering a certain game that Ditka always whines about and another Bear game where the evil Bears put up 62 on the Pack.)

Back to nick names, lets pay homage to the Acme Meat Packing Co and call the D line the Slaughter House.

Thanks for the geezer shout-out....I sometime think that those on this forum who's sperm count is higher than their IQ just don't appreciate history and tradition. :icon_smile: :icon_smile:

Raji scoring a td would be one of the great "screw you Bears" moments in rivalry history.

One of the great travesties in that whole year was Perry getting a TD in the SB and Walter Peyton never getting a sniff at scoring.

As much as I hate The Bears, I respected Walter, shame on Ditka for not giving him the ball.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
