    Honestly ?
    - I think most Packers fans believe they're still better than us.
    - I think most Packers fans know the talent gap has closed significantly and is close enough to give them the jitters.
    - Some of their players (in certain positions) are better than ours.
    - Some of our players ( in certain positions ) are better than theirs.
    - It's no longer a jump ball where one guy is 6'10 and the other guy is 6'5 , it's more like one guy is 6'10 and the other is 6'9.99

    So games now actually could come down to :
    - 1 slip, 1 blown coverage, 1 tip, 1 int, 1 fumble etc etc etc

    May the best team win.
    What should you call any : Fumble , Hold , Interception , Three and out , or Sack ?

    A " F.H.I.T.S " ? or a J'Marcus ?

    I'll send you gas money.

    It's only about 50 miles isn't it? I drove it often enough but my memory fails me in my old age.
    I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.

    It is about 15 miles but I may have to drive into wisconsin and drive West to avoid all the main roads since some bonehead decided to work on the roads at the same time. Highway 2 , 251 and I 90 are all under construction at the same freaking time.

    Funny you said that. All the Detours , even for the Detours are under construction. Who plan this out, Martz?
    The passion of a few, to rule the many, that's Washington D.C.. Where else was that said before, about whom?

    I am thinking more of Ron Turner calling the plays on this one.
