Screwed up thread.. page holder. |
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.  |

Many Thanks Tough question for me. I have read books on GB but I can not think of them right now. I have heard many times that Jerry Kramer's book "Instant Replay" is a good one about the team in the 60's. |

If you want a good read and some of the truths behind the Lombardi era.. read " When Pride Still Mattered"... Yes is will show some of the darker sides of the era.. but it will also illustrate just how much these guys cared about Packer football and winning.. solid read. |

I've been reading here since sometime last season. Can't remember how I found the site exactly but probably on a Google search. I hope signing up helps give you a better idea of how appreciated having this kind of resource is, even if I don't write much myself (since I don't get to see too many games, I doubt I have much perspective to add). Thanks again for all the work and investment. |

Thanks again for all the work and investment. And another country heard from. Contribute when and where you think you can. Many of us enjoy the input from other sources. |

My initial intention was like many a poster here - find a stream and that's that.
I actually had another handle that I cannot remember, as there was a long period of time when I didn't use this site.
I started posting tentatively first of all, and to be honest this is now my number one resource for all things Packer.
That aside, I enjoy this site because of the level of maturity and intelligent discussion. I spend more time reading/browsing PackersHome than any other website. |

I first became aware of the site because a friend, flep, told me about it. By the way he has said nothing but good things about it. He even said I should join at his daughters wedding party. Mind you I don't think he remembers as he was drunk at the time. Who can blame him? |

I got the website from my husband, it only took 2 years for him to give me the address so I could join too! He's a hardcore packer fan and I love him for it! ::wink: |
