If I were you guys I'd keep the porn on the Ray server.

I can see the comptroller down in Brazil:

Como o inferno voc soletra Nitschke?

How the hell do you spell Nitschke?
in Portuguese, lol

Let's face it - Green Bay isn't exactly a cosmopolitan city. It might be a haven for Packers fans, but not all football players are Packers fans - they play football for a paycheck.

There's really no real reason to go to Green Bay (if you're not from there) unless you are a Packers fan. They are the biggest attraction, otherwise it is an ordinary, average, uninteresting town in the middle of the country.

You know, I walk around in Perth, Australia, some 11000 miles from Green Bay, and see more Packers jerseys on the streets than I do any other NFL team.

To be honest though, I can't comprehend how much love for the Packers there is - I mean, I've heard about it, but I've never seen it. But hearing stories about the fans, the team and the tradition just makes me all the more proud to follow such a franchise. I haven't taken a walk around Green Bay or toured Lambeau field. But I will one day. I will one day.

my comment on that site:

"keep in mind? keep in mind nothing. i'm sorry but i don't care how hard working he is (and how do you know all of these personal attributes, are you his mother?) the guy isn't a "class act" and he most certainly is not "humble." people who could be described with such words don't open their mouths when they shouldn't...in fact they do the opposite. that's what being classy and humble is all about: not appearing like a juvenile jack-ass in front of the world.

that said, i grew up in appleton. i went to punk shows in green bay as a teen. i moved to milwaukee, boston, nyc and now chapel hill (raleigh-durham, triangle) and while green bay isn't a very self-selling city, how dense do you have to be not to understand Lambeau and the only organization in the NFL owned by the city? and you have the lack of foresight to actually talk smack about that? to the media?

dumb kid deserves every bit of criticism he gets."

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

my comment on that site:

Lifelong Packer fan. Mostly an east coast guy. They worry about their reputation in Green Bay. They fear players will not come there because of some of the perceptions of folks like Rice.

I love going to that city and Lambeau when I get the chance. It's one hell of a lot warmer there than most NFL cities, and if you don't understand what I mean by that...chances are you have never been there.

Thank you Andrew on behalf of my many friends in Green Bay, along with my many fellow Packer fan friends all over this world. That is our town, too, wherever we live, and we are proud of it.

That sums it up for me. The people of Green Bay are most definitely a part of the Green Bay Packers, just as Zero stated.

Rice apologized on his twitter, writing something about "not judging a book by its cover." So basically he's still saying that Green Bay looks like a big pile of crap, but he suspends his judgment because it may not be as bad as it appears. :lol:

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
