They don't give out black belts to things that are stupid.




Is Arod Arod? Once again, the Packers have a chance to win the game at the end, with over two minutes left to go. I already knew what was coming, and of course I was not disappointed. For the second week in a row and fourth time this season. Rodgers throws an interception to seal the game. Seven games the Packers have a chance to come back, seven times they were unable to do it. Due to the ineptness that starts somewhere around ten minutes left in the fourth quarter. I am constantly bombarded by how great Aaron Rodgers stats are, but yet we are 5-9. I am constantly reminded that the defense constantly lets the team down, but the only starters in the Pro Bowl are Nick Collins and Charles Woodson, defensive players. I see Rodgers yelling at his receivers like that pussy Dan Marino. I see players fighting each other like teams that have been consistent losers for years. That is the future. I have come to be convinced that Rodgers is the Rodriguez of the NFL. Great stats when it doesn't matter, disappears completely when it does. I have been scoffed at with the sneer of, "Who threw the interception that kept us out of the Super Bowl?" while there is no mention of Plexico Burress making Al Harris his bitch and the offense running the ball only 13 times in -45 degree weather. The only thing I am waiting for now is the inevitable defeat in the final game of the season against the 0-15 Lions. There is no doubt that is going to happen. But I am sure the fan base will react with the same apathy and blind devotion to Daddy that they always do. A fan base that I once argued was the most football savvy in the league. I was wrong. They are only rooting for laundry.

at least Favre isn't any good any more, oh wait...

Well, he has kind of sucked the last three games, but the Jets are at least winning. I think the Pack really fed off his energy and leadership and they have no one to fill that vacuum.

I think it's hilarious that people are bringing up Favre's interception. Isn't it better to be one play away from the Super Bowl than out of the playoffs completely!?!

A-Rod might be good someday but the Pack would have been better with Favre this year. In the NFL, the future is now.

Jack Burton said...

I know, it is better to not get close to the playoffs than lose in the FUCKING NFC TITLE GAME! That was exactly my argument about the NFL being a win-now league. To intentionally go back into rebuilding mode is unconscionable. 3rd year in a row being the youngest team in the NFL, why?

Jack Burton said...

Oh yeah, one other big thing that people are using to denigrate Favre,"Do you want to have another offseason where he makes us wait while he makes up his mind?" Really? All I have to say is: Chicago. 1998. Michael Jordan. Jerry Krause. How'd that work out? Fuckers.

Sorry, just practicing my troll routines since I haven't seen any Packers games besides the one versus the Vikings. Obviously the results were mixed. Fun facts: the top passers in those games got 178 (ARod in the Pack win) and 151 yards (Frerotte in the rematch).

Jack Burton said...

Couple things about those Wrangler commercials? Who plays football in jeans? They are all wearing them. And Favre is like calling audibles!!! They would all be like WTF? I know, Tebow is Favre-like in irrational love from people. I can't help it.

Jack Burton said...

I don't know if Tebow gets all the love because there is a dearth of talent now or what? If you look at the players that beat Frazier during that time, they were pretty awesome.
