A Former, Disgraced NFL Backup To John Elway And Brett Favre Plays In My Crappy Flag Football League 

We asked the ref if the guy played in college. The ref told us, “He played for the Green Bay Packers.” Holy shit. That explained it. This guy was by far the best player in a league in which he was 20 years senior to most of the participants.

After the game, we walked over to his sideline to congratulate him with an ice cold one. “We heard you played for the Packers,” a work buddy of mine said. “Yeah…unfortunately” was the old man’s answer. We just laughed it off. Maybe he hated Wisconsin. We wouldn’t blame him for that. We asked him for his name, and he grudgingly answered: T.J. Rubley. I had never heard of him, but judging by his age, I knew he probably played with Brett Favre.



Ty totally pulled a Rubley against the Rams. Still remember that play like it was yesterday. Worst part about Rubley's blunder was Frank Winters turned around as he started to audible and said "Don't do it!" Shoulda listened to Old Bag of Donuts.

T.J. Rubley was Ty Montgomery before Ty Montgomery was Ty Montgomery.

He was told to just keep the ball secure and run out the clock, instead he decided to throw a pass which was intercepted giving the Vikings the win.
I don't think Holmgren even let him get on the plane to return to Green Bay.

To clarify, the game was tied and GB was close enough for a long FG when Holmgren told Rubley to run a QB sneak. Rubley decided to audible and the Vikings picked it off and returned it far enough into GB territory for a FG to win. It was a bitter loss that left Green Bay at a 5-4 record and it seemed like the 1995 Packers couldn't take a step forward after failing to do so the year before when they went 9-7 for the third year in row under Holmgren. Holmgren and GM Wolf were so pissed that even with Favre and #2 QB Detmer both leaving the game with injuries and a division game against the Bears coming up they released Rubley (though it's easy to see now in retrospect that Favre was gonna play).

Thanks Mucky for the clarification, my memory isn't what it used to be.
I do remember that it was a crushing defeat and that Rubley was at the root of it.

Maybe Montgomery can take solace in the fact that he wasn't the only one to royally fuck up on Sunday.





















All in all, this week of NFL football was a comedy of errors.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
