A while back VikesRule (Mr.

himself) and I got to talking and well sparked an interest in attending a Blues Brothers

show.. well that really is nothing more than a good excuse to shake Nick's hand and share a couple of laughs.

He was going to start a thread inviting others to attend, but I think he might have gotten tied up (or worked up over the Vikings outlook upon the season [aiee] ) and with the date closing in.. figured better give some notice if anyone is interested.

At the moment, unless VR isn't going to attend.. I and my wife are planning on going. Foster I believe is flying in.. and I believe catching a game.

Yell if you think you might want to attend.. we can fill in the details later.

Seriously, put me down as "definitely interested". (assuming this is available for singles rather than just couples) It gives me a chance to skip town on Homecoming weekend.

Are tickets hard to come by? Is there any problem finding motel rooms in Galena that time of year (I doubt I'll be up to driving back the night of the concert).

I believe Foster is catching the Rams vs Packers that weekend.. at least that is what I recall him saying.

Tickets for the show.. that I am unsure of.. being Nick is connected with the entertainers.. I hadn't checked into that detail as of yet.

As far as accommodations.. there were several different choices of stay.. I believe Nick is staying at the Stoney Creek Inn . A month or so ago.. there was plenty of rooms available..

I know my wife would love to do this, the main issue being whether our precarious financial state would allow it.

Sigh,
I was looking forward to this trip. But signs are that the day job plus The Mom mean I'm not going to be able to make the Galena trip after all. I've still got it on my calendar, but it's likely to be a last minute decision -- so don't count on me.

Sorry about that, Shawn/Nick/Dave/Rourke/anyone else going.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

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.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

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.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
