Can’t Stop. Won’t Stop.

I try to limit the amount of Packers coverage I put on this blog. But I just can’t stop. There is so much love for the team. It’s starting to scare me, though. No unanimous ‘analyst’ preseason Super Bowl pick has probably ever actually brought the Lombardi Trophy home, but there’s always a first [...]

Just a Little Taste

The Packer bandwagon has gotten so full, I can’t even keep up with all the love that’s out there. But I’ll do my best to just give you a quick little taste:

The latest USA Today NFL Power Ranking now has the Packers as the #1 team:

Joke of the Day

Compliments of Seif:

I met a fairy today that granted me one wish.

“I want to live forever,” I said.

“Sorry” said the fairy, “I’m not allowed to grant wishes like that!”

“Fine” I said, “I want to die after the Vikings win the Super Bowl!”

“You crafty bastard,” said the fairy. [...]

Favre Retires! Again…

Breaking news on ESPN:

Only the third time he has retired. There are a few weeks for him to change his mind. But for now, it’s a great day.

Packers. Super Bowl. Win. Done.

There will be a Packer fan parade through Edina, MN tonight. Come join me.

The Official Super Bowl Preview

wahl_peyton

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I [...]

Exclusive Content from a Super Bowl Party

Man Purse

I don’t think I can technically say ‘Super Bowl’ in this post without Rodger Goodell coming in the middle of the night and murdering my first born, but I’ll risk it.

For the unfamiliar, my college buddy, Evan (who rides the coattails of his sister’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ fame), lives in Miami [...]

A ‘Super’ Brain Game

Because one can never get enough football stuffed into one week, even Mental Floss is throwing together Super Bowl related brain games for us. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a brain game, but this one is fun, and doable. Enjoy.

Today’s Brain Game offers twelve anagrams of various football player positions; think [...]

My Super Bowl picks and props will come later, but for now, a quick note on two commercials to potentially look forward to this Sunday:

Rumor has it that he’ll be mocking his [...]
