Ok, seems like the MODS and I got off on the wrong foot in here. I currently live in MN but will be moving back to Hudson, WI. I have lived in WI for more than 20 years before moving to MN. I have watched the Packers played since 1994 (when I first knew about "sports") and have not missed any games until last season. I hope to not miss any more games, with the help of everyone in here. Thanks!!

So now I have a question... why choose to live on the Wisconsin side vs Minnesota?

Curious ? is all.

I lived in La Crescent, MN for a short time while finishing school.. I loved the dime saving in gas tax. 😉

Well, as some of you may know, the cost of living in MN is more than WI. So trying to rent a 3 bdrm apt in MN will be around 950-1100 a month versus $800 in WI. I rather drive a little distance to work rather than pay 150-300 more for rent and live close by. Even if I stayed in MN, I live in the suburbs and work in DT MPLS so it's already a drive for me. Also, I was hoping to get Packer games if I moved to Hudson but still too close to the border. My other option was drive to Eau Claire, where I'm originally from, every Sunday and watch it with my bros but come winter time, I will not be driving in WI snow. I'm grateful that there is a site like this where it's for packer fans and for those who cannot see the games, to have a chance to view it on here.

Yes the drive from Hudson to the Cities isn't a bad one at all.. even in the winter months.

My uncle lived in Hudson some years ago and managed the Afton House, in Afton, MN. Living by the river is a pretty place to live.. minus all those pesky Viking fans. ;)

You'll find your games around here..

It appears to be malfunctioning at the time, since I'm missing about 50 as well. :wickedfart:

Anyway, welcome. Wisconsinites not getting GB games? Seems nearly blasphemous to me. I guess that the Vikes do have to get some viewers as well.

packerfanoutwest (56m) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (2h) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (12h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (12h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (12h) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (16h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (16h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (16h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (19h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (19h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (19h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (19h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (19h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (19h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (19h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (19h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (20h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (20h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (20h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (21h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (21h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (21h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (21h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (21h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (22h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (22h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (22h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (22h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
