Man, Lynn, I'm not sure you even deserve the name after this.... 

But it's "Better off Dead" with a young John Cusack.

Really classic.  Definitely my favorite 80's movie.

Anyway, I'll have to check it out.  I don't think I've seen it, so my memory of that line must have been from some clip somewhere.

The Dome is too, so don't take offense guys.

Status: offline 		It is frigid out there, that's for sure.  It's almost like it can't really be considered a standard game when you have to gameplan for the elements on top of the opposing team.  If the wind is coming right at your face at over 30 mph, you can't punt, you can't kick field goals or even throw anything beyond a screen.  Talk about an opportunity to pin your ears back and all out run blitz.  The wind is like your 12th man on defense.

Perhaps, but I was hoping to find a way of plugging in a Tim Tebow reference.  After all, he is the Heisman Trophy utility man who can do it all (except pass consistently, but don't tell anyone the secret).  He's gonna come in to the NFL and Wishbone everybody to death.  Even Favre.  How is he going to do that when they're both on offense?  Don't ask so many questions.  This is Tim Tebow we're talking about.  The new Favre mystique.

Status: offline 		Christmas came a little early this year,
Wrapped up in a nice GB beat-down.
Time to re-write the Favre Legacy ..... Again!
Now it's "never lost a game when the temp is below 20 degrees"
That one keeps getting lowered and lowered every year.
Started at 40, went to 38, then to 32, then, well, you get the picture.  
Come to think of it ..... I've never lost one when the temp is below 20 degrees either.

Status: offline 		The Packers powerfully sucked today.  I only have about 22 years of Packers memories, but this ranks up there with some of the worst games, including the playoff loss to the Viqueens and the playoff loss to Atlanta (the first playoff loss at Lambeau).  Even the "4th & 26" playoff game against the Eagles was less consistently horrible than this joke.

Worst part to me is that the Packers miss out on a possible 14-2 season, which would've been their best.

Favre did not play well, although he doesn't deserve all the blame.  Our defense allowed Kyle Orton (!) to control the game.  Some terrible snaps today; Jon Ryan didn't punt great, but it wasn't his fault on most of them.  Two blocked punts in game is completely inexcusable.

Yo, Big Dave.  Normally I'd say those are fighting words right there.  But since it's the Holiday Season and the Pack got severely thumped today, I'm willing to let it slide. 

Oh yeah, and we haven't played yet, so I can('t) get too cocky.

* edit:  Wow, that must have been a Freudian slip.
