Beautiful first half (didn't see the second).

8-8. On .500 ground again.

That seems to be the consensus... but only Brett knows for sure. You can tell he's still got the fire, though, so I won't be counting him completely out until the Pack starts a game without him. 4 straight victories including a spanking of a much better than average Bears team is something worth building on!

Wow I have mixed emotions about that statement.

Do you think that the outcome of that game will have any bearing on Farves decision?

I hope not... because he could use it as an excuse to go out on top. On the other hand, it may prove to him that he can still play. I still think he'd win the starting job at more than half the teams in the league, and considering most quarterbacks can only dream about landing a job with any; he still belongs in the game. Even without his star-power, his raw talent remains much better than average. I think he's got a couple more years left in the tank and if he chooses to live up to his potential; he'll go down in history as the most prolific football player there ever was. He long ago earned the top spot on every major Packer record (the winningest most celebrated team in history, no less) and he's on the cusp of attaining every major passing record there is... and his healthy/longevity is already unrivaled. What single football player ever made a bigger impact on their respective team? Ever?

That is what I was thinking, with that win over this Bears team would be a storybook ending for him. I don't like Farve but I do respect him and he certainly has a couple of years left in him if he decides to stay.

10 minutes! Thanks Bill, and thanks Gargamel!

Woo-hoo!

If nothing else I can now live with myself because evidently I haven't missed his last game...

(Better not change his mind -- or worse, get injured -- between now and the first game of the season. Knock on wood.)

Occom Bill, excited about hearing of Favre's return, impulsively picks up a couple hot chicks from a Wisconsin bar and prepares for a night of debauchery...

That was nice of your mom and sister to have their photo taken with you, Bill.

Say, Bill, I actually bought this Mountain Dew can a few years back...

I was driving through Wisconsin on the way to Chicago and impulsively stopped at a garage sale near a town called Rhinelander. The guy wanted fifty cents for the can, but after a bit of haggling he agreed to part with it for a quarter.

I cut the top off the can and placed it on the floor near my computer desk. Then, as I'm typing, I will stop every few minutes (such as now).... and spit of big gob of chewing tobacco toward the can. I generally get most of it inside the can, but there is a fair amount on the carpet and Favre's face has been pretty well obliterated. Only one eye and a small patch of skin remain visible.

I reckon that should be gone sometime this week.

Those kids would kill you if they read that. The older one is 14 years my junior.

I suspect your pic is a fake, probably taken in Chicago. Wisconsin girls don't look like that. They have nicer smiles. :wink: Here's a better example:

Bill, are you going with the Colts tomorrow? I suspect you would since, being a Packer fan, you would have a hatred for the Bears and your judgement would be skewed because of that, however, in this case, your instincts would be correct and I look for the Colts to win with relative ease.

I believe I can speak for you and say that you believe the same thing.

Colts 30, Bears 24, I believe was my prediction. I don't think Manning can be denied again. He's too good (or their brilliant system is) to not win one eventually. After the thrashing we put on the Bears week 16, I don't see how they could hold down the Colts.

Looking back on this thread I notice that Bill and I, as usual, were correct with our football picks, but I am not here to brag about our prowess but rather to ask Bill and sozobe a simple question.

And that question is: What do you think of the rumors of Randy Moss going to Green Bay? Apparently, Brett Favre was the impetus behind this possibility even happening when he personally went to the general manager and requested an attempt be made to bring Moss into the fold.

I think it is rather humorous listening to all the cheeseheads clamoring for Moss and thinking this is going to be such a wonderful thing, and how Moss would be such a fine addition, yet these are the same people who used to call him a "thug" and a "cancer" and say things like "I would NEVER want that piece of crap on this team."

So, soz and Bill, what do you think? Good move? Or a potential Terrell Owens type disaster in the making?

Nothing would make me happier accept, perhaps, picking up T.O. Both would be splendid. Granted they're both self-centered jerks... but I believe the love they'd feel at Lambeau Field is precisely what they long for. They both also happen to be extraordinary talents. Moss still draws double coverage on virtually every down so, at the very least, he'd make Driver that much more effective.

Oh, and we re-signed Al Harris! We're looking forward to a great year!

The Bears were "resting up" for the playoffs where they beat Seattle and New Orleans!
