Well, just remember...if you're not a true Packer fan and do not understand he's doing this for all the right reasons, "don't watch". <----lamest response to a specific scenario EVER! Minus O.J. horribly acting like he couldn't get his hand in his own glove that he used to brutally kill two people.

Rock, you might have to alter your routine a bit for that game. Go to bed early, take a few hours' nap, then watch the game.

That being said, I don't believe this game will be the titanic battle the media is sure to hype it up to be. At least I doubt it's going to fully justify the astronomical ratings it will receive. The Packers have handled the Vikings pretty convincingly in recent years, and even with (or maybe particularly with) Favre at the helm, I don't see this changing much. After all, unless he decides to show off, his main job is going to be handing off to Adrian Peterson anyway, not to mention this will be over through the season, at which point it will be impossible to predict his level of health or effectiveness.

Speaking as a football fan and not just a Packers fan here, I honestly don't believe the Packers have all that much to worry about. Play solid, fundamental football, contain the run, force Favre to beat you with his arm. Favre better be throwing lasers on target all night, because we have a stable of defensive backs who will be dying to jump routes and run picks back to the house.

Three predictions for the game:
1. A total of nine turnovers, fifteen accepted penalties, and eight sacks.
2. McCarthy's press conferences the following week will highlight "pad level."
3. I will watch the game at a bar, after having tossed a book through the screen of my television after the mistake of tuning into the pre-game show.

Oh yes, and the Packers will win, 21-20, unless I end up at a bar full of Viking fans. In which case the score will be 20-20.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

And don't forget "tempo"!

"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian" - Harvey Dent

Seems oddly fitting here, no?

I wish i could go but it'd be like a 15hr drive + cost of tickets, etc.
I think both pack v vikings games will be good games, both teams should be pretty solid this year.

I live in New York. I'm hoping somehow I will be able to snag a ticket and I'll take a plane over there to see the game. It's something I really really want to do. Hopefully some of my family will help me with it since my birthday is October 10th(yes, the same as Brett's.). I know it's going to cost me an arm and a leg, but it would be worth it.

I'm from California and was thinking about going to this game too. The tickets and airfare are going to be pricey, but worth it as I've never been to Lambeau. I was just wondering if anyone can offer some tips about weather, good seats and bad seats to avoid in the stadium, what to wear etc. I'm thinking of getting tickets in section 102 row 2 in the endzone. Oh yeah and I read that one is not allowed to bring any kind of bag? Any information would be very helpful in making my decision to come out. Thanks

Was going to purchase tickets last weekend. This was before the Favre announcement. Prices had been dropping and were at $165 a piece. Within minutes of the Favre announcement they shot up to $365 a piece. I am kicking myself for not buying them. Far too expensive now.

beast (20h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? 🥺 I think that means you missed more than half of them 😢
dfosterf (23h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (27-Mar) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (27-Mar) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
