It passed over the Bears rivalry a decade or better ago, IMO, however it is now growing the one of those legendary type grudges.

Not the best.. but rapidly approaching the top.

I wonder how many fights will break out on the field this year. Imagine how awesome it would be to see fights escalating to ejections. ::D

I think the past few years (with the addition of Mike McCarthy and Chilly as HC's) there has been a lackluster of passion for this rivalry. And with the Favre signing, it should spark those passions up big time. If we see some fights/scuffles, I will NOT be mad.. The players will finally get IT. And that's this is NOT just another game. This is the biggest and best rivalry in any professional sport (including BoSox/Yanks). The only 'flare' I remember seeing between these two teams, recently, was the look on AP's face after he scored that winning TD in the Dome (you all remember, it was the game where he was wearing the condom on his head.. and he prematurely ejaculated his helmet?)

The Bambino just crossed the Hudson, folks (or, in this case.. The Favre just crossed the St. Croix).

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

I dont know the pack vs the bears has always been the biggest rivalry well as long as I been alive.

It did seem a bit heated up more since I grew near the illinois border.

but I admit now that farve has taken sides with the purple and white - I can see this match being bigger then the chicago game.

Depends upon how Favre does. If he stinks it up, it'll be a grudge match. If he's still shooting laser beams (to the right team) and the Pack are toe and toe with the Vikings, this could definitely be heavy. Bears-Packers heavy? Eh...

Favre's actually looking good so far, I'm just waiting for his first bad game. People will start turning on him.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
