Well, just remember...if you're not a true Packer fan and do not understand he's doing this for all the right reasons, "don't watch". <----lamest response to a specific scenario EVER! Minus O.J. horribly acting like he couldn't get his hand in his own glove that he used to brutally kill two people.

Rock, you might have to alter your routine a bit for that game. Go to bed early, take a few hours' nap, then watch the game.

That being said, I don't believe this game will be the titanic battle the media is sure to hype it up to be. At least I doubt it's going to fully justify the astronomical ratings it will receive. The Packers have handled the Vikings pretty convincingly in recent years, and even with (or maybe particularly with) Favre at the helm, I don't see this changing much. After all, unless he decides to show off, his main job is going to be handing off to Adrian Peterson anyway, not to mention this will be over through the season, at which point it will be impossible to predict his level of health or effectiveness.

Speaking as a football fan and not just a Packers fan here, I honestly don't believe the Packers have all that much to worry about. Play solid, fundamental football, contain the run, force Favre to beat you with his arm. Favre better be throwing lasers on target all night, because we have a stable of defensive backs who will be dying to jump routes and run picks back to the house.

Three predictions for the game:
1. A total of nine turnovers, fifteen accepted penalties, and eight sacks.
2. McCarthy's press conferences the following week will highlight "pad level."
3. I will watch the game at a bar, after having tossed a book through the screen of my television after the mistake of tuning into the pre-game show.

Oh yes, and the Packers will win, 21-20, unless I end up at a bar full of Viking fans. In which case the score will be 20-20.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

And don't forget "tempo"!

"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian" - Harvey Dent

Seems oddly fitting here, no?

I wish i could go but it'd be like a 15hr drive + cost of tickets, etc.
I think both pack v vikings games will be good games, both teams should be pretty solid this year.

I live in New York. I'm hoping somehow I will be able to snag a ticket and I'll take a plane over there to see the game. It's something I really really want to do. Hopefully some of my family will help me with it since my birthday is October 10th(yes, the same as Brett's.). I know it's going to cost me an arm and a leg, but it would be worth it.

I'm from California and was thinking about going to this game too. The tickets and airfare are going to be pricey, but worth it as I've never been to Lambeau. I was just wondering if anyone can offer some tips about weather, good seats and bad seats to avoid in the stadium, what to wear etc. I'm thinking of getting tickets in section 102 row 2 in the endzone. Oh yeah and I read that one is not allowed to bring any kind of bag? Any information would be very helpful in making my decision to come out. Thanks

Was going to purchase tickets last weekend. This was before the Favre announcement. Prices had been dropping and were at $165 a piece. Within minutes of the Favre announcement they shot up to $365 a piece. I am kicking myself for not buying them. Far too expensive now.

Mucky Tundra (11-Feb) : Yeah where did it go?
packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : or did you resctrict access to that topic?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
