NS is on an applause kick today.. lol..

Gruden is an improvement.. but too brash for my taste at times as far as a color commentator.. but it could be worse.

I miss Don Meredith or Dan Dierdorf in the booth doing color.. it was entertaining with those two.. Meredith was just a clown.

I think that for the duration of this season, MNF announcers should be contractually obligated every time they mention the name of Brett Favre, to either a) forfeit $50 from their game check or b) spend a minimum of 30 seconds commentating on another player they have not yet mentioned during the game. I think that would stem the flow of insanity.

John Gruden would do a better job than Collinsworth. Sorry but Collinsworth needs to go back to nbc studio or nfl network.

I like Collinsworth, for the most part. He's a great analyst. Sometimes he gets hung up on some point, though, and just won't let it drop.

It's funny, I didn't even think to point out all of the Favre butt-kissing from Gruden and the others on MNF, because I've come to expect it over the years. It was irritating even when Favre played for the Packers. It was actually worse when he played for the Packers, because the announcers never gave enough credit to the other players on the team.

It sure the hell was.. to the point where I would shut off the volume.. great player but you don't have to sell him.. let his play sell him.

I remember when the drama first started of Favre retiring. John Madden was all emotional and etc and then he put Favre on the cover of his game. Both Packers and Jets. I still got the Madden 09 with Favre with a Green Bay jersey. Talk about kissing up to sell his game in greater numbers.

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Feelin' pfowish can't find the sun. No big deal, will drag a laptop out when the time comes

Zero2Cool (27-Jul) : if you're on mobile, open the menu and its the "sun" icon

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Can't find the toggle, lol

dfosterf (27-Jul) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .

Zero2Cool (27-Jul) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.

dfosterf (27-Jul) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same

dfosterf (27-Jul) : *Friday*

dfosterf (27-Jul) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (27-Jul) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (27-Jul) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (27-Jul) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (27-Jul) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (27-Jul) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (27-Jul) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (27-Jul) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (27-Jul) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based

dfosterf (27-Jul) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (27-Jul) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

dfosterf (27-Jul) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...

beast (27-Jul) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off
