Waffeling aside, if your MVP Quarterback wants to return after getting you one play from the SuperBowl, do you:
A: Welcome him back?
B: Make Lame Excuses to Not Welcome him Back?
C: Try to Pay him $20 million to stay retired?
D: Trade him to another Team?
E: None of the Above.

The current Green Bay Packer management has choosen B, C and now appears to be trying option D. This situation is WAY out of control. The general feeling among everyone that we have spoken to is the they have ALL lost any respect for theese three clowns, and when that happens in Green Bay, you might as well GO PACK, your bags! If egos could have been left on the sideline, Brett Favre would be back on the team and all would be well with the world. This fiascon seems to have sent ripples of disruption throughout the entire NFL and even the world. The pieces are all over the floor and the public is going to want to know EXACTLY who caused this mess and why. I doubt the lame excuses we have heard so far will stand up in the court of public opinion. These three stooges need to remember who owns that team! If Roger’s lays an egg on Monday Night Football next week, heads will roll!

Here’s cute little song to cheer you up during these dreary winter months.

On Sunday November 5th, we were all watching the big match-up between the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots that was touted as Superbowl 42 and a half, when after one play I heard a distinct digital skipping sound of of background crowd noise over my high definition home theater system right before a Randy Moss catch. It was quite obvious that the sound was either a digital broadcast problem or as the Patriots alleged, that the Colts cheated by piping crowd noise into the stadium in an attempt distract their opponent. Apparently it didn’t work so well because Moss caught the ball and the Patriots won the game.  The scheme was revealed after the source of the sound skipped or hiccuped. We’ve seen similar tactics used in the past by the Vikings in the Roller Dome. You’d never have that kind of problem at Lambeau field in Green Bay. Come on Colts fans, make your own noise!

Listen for yourself to see if you can detect the skipping sound.

Every once in a while, rare comic genius emerges from the out of nowhere to bless us with much needed side splitting laughs in the form of a great jokster or in this case a master comic capable of super human powers of “impersonationizing“. For those of you living on the dark side of the moon, we’re talking about the upcoming TBS late night show “Frank TV” starring the incredile comic impersonations of Frank Caliendo (MADtv), who can instantly transform into the likeness of George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Robert DiNiro, Al Pacino, Richard Dryfuss, Sean Connery, Dr. Phil, Jack Nicholson, Robin Williams, David Letterman, Jeff Goldblum, Charles Barkley and let’s not forget our favorite impression of John Madden.

Check out his website for video clips and teasers that are sure to make you laugh.
So grab a beer, belly up to your bar, check the TBS schedule for your area and tune into Frank TV on TBS Late Night, November 20th 11/10c.
While it’s funny, he’s better suited for standup comedy that his own TV series.
The show is a bit repetitive and probably won’t be long lived.

Modest homes line Lombardi Avenue adjacent to Lambeau Field, Home of the Green Bay Packers, but one residence recently became a mecca of sorts to one Packer fan famiy and their growing list of friends. An Atlanta businessman purchased a home directly across from the front of newly renovated stadium and turned it into the ultimate Packer fan dream home. The view from the remodeled rear of the home would be like a mountian vista for a nature lover, but in this case the floor to ceiling view is of Lambeau field and on game day the atmosphere is electric, with fans tailgating and the roar of the stadium crowd cleary audible from the roof top deck.
 The owner of the home purchased the property, then hired a builder to completely gut the interior and transform it into the ultimate pre-game party house with a fantastic view of the stadium.  The garage was trasformed into a party deck and a large “G” was etched into the patio concrete.

Inside, the house features a big screen TV, pool table in a large open area that lets in the majestic view of the hallowed stadium and the scene of tailgaters and fans gathering before the big game. It’s one giant party with a front row seat. 

 The owner says the house was “Designed by men, for men”, he said ”It is specifically to enjoy game day and the days leading up to game day.”, and there’s no worry about  missing the big play when taking your bathroom break, since the mens room is equipped with it’s own urinal complete with an overhead TV screen and includes the perfect target with the Packer Fans favorite chant “The Bears Still Suck” strategically enameled into the fixture. 
Born and raised a Packer fan in Milwaukee, the owner and his family will travel to Green Bay on weekends when the Packers play at home and open up their home to friends and relatives. They plan to use this vacation house about as much as most other people use their lakeside homes.”I’m not doing this as an investment or for any kind of commercial or financial benefit” said the owner. “This is truly a spot that we’ve picked to enjoy the Packer atmosphere.” The owner hopes his dream home doesn’t start a trend though, in which other homes in the neighborhood are sold and turned into party houses.”If somebody wants to sell out to somebody as moronic as I am, that’s fine, but I just like the neighbors, like the people here,” said the owner. “I welcome all of them to come over and have a beer with me on Packer day and get to know each other a little bit.” Safe to say a new era in tailgaiting along Lombardi Avenue kicks off on Sunday. “It’s the hallowed grounds and to be so close is pretty special”.

Congratulations to Brett Favre of the Green Bay Packers on breaking Dan Marino’s career touchdown record of 420.

Favre wound up with 2 more TD’s before the end of the game. The Packers advance to 4-0 for the first time since 1998.
The Packers take on Da 1-3 Chicago Bears at home next week. Go Pack!
