Packers don't win the turnover battle, but win the score war.

That first half was painful to watch. I assume the tide turned when Carr got knocked out.

I tuned back in during the 4th quarter down 17-3. Fully expected them to lose 20-18 but missed FG we'll take it. A W is a W.

My wife and I were on the way home while listening to the game. When the Sant's kicker missed the FG we both screamed like 12 yo girls.

I hated MLF going for it on 4th and 2 in the first quarter. I didn't think the offense had showed any rhythm at that point. While the annoucers loved the flea flicker call, I didn't. Too many moving parts. Finally the 2 point attempt was very gutsy. I was surprised they would go for it then.

The 2 pt attempt surprised me too but thinking about and how aggressive MLF was, I think he wanted to come out and set a tone for today and the season after blowing the 12 point lead last week.

And not to go full nerdmann but I think MLF wanted to avoid OT at that point with a Thursday game looming.

The Saints special teams coordinator is considered the best in the league by most. We tried to land him but refused to pony up the cash. I love your optimism though!! WE NEED THAT

Also, statistically speaking, the odds of you failing back to back two point conversions is far less than failing one. So, basically, if you try and fail, you're probability of converting the second one is pretty high.

I thought it was funny how the commentator J. Wilma didn't like the Packers going for it on 4th down there, but then says he likes the call. The call was pretty damn good. The execution was horrible. And by good I mean we had a guy wide open. I would have rather a call (as you stated) with less moving parts.

wpr (3h) : I made it through the 1st Q.

dfosterf (11h) : Just gotta figure out how.

dfosterf (11h) : Could have been a worse start, so there is that.

beast (12h) : Yeah, someone tell the Packers football season has started, seems like they weren't ready for it

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Sooooooo many penalties

Mucky Tundra (12h) : It may only be preseason, but this game is a trip to the dentist

Zero2Cool (13h) : Packers do bad -- FREAK OUT!!!!!!

Zero2Cool (13h) : Packers do good -- eh only preseason

Mucky Tundra (19h) : THE GREEN BAY PACKERS ARE PLAYING FOOTBALL TONIGHT!!!!!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!!

Zero2Cool (20h) : Woo-hoo

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Wife of reason posted on the in/out thread on fleaflicker that both she and vor are in

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : This page was generated in 0.135 seconds.

Mucky Tundra (7-Aug) : Tbh, I can never tell the difference in speed unless it's completely shitting the bed

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last
