Greenville Packer Backers: PBB

Showing posts with label PBB. Show all posts

Fourth time’s the charm?!? I didn’t know that was a thing until Crosby finally, finally, finally, finally made the game winning field goal in overtime on Sunday. My wife Ella and I attended the game in Cincinnati, and I still have not decided if I got my money’s worth, or if I will be paying long-term mental consequences and lost years from my life due to this emotional roller coaster. The situation was exacerbated since I thought some of the missed field goals from either team went through from my seat angle. And since half the crowd around me were Packer fans I did not immediately know if the cheering or groaning was good or bad.

Packers 27 Stealers 17

I’m not right about a lot of things, just ask Linda, but when I am, I want to be sure to make a point of it. Last week I wrote that these were two teams headed in opposite directions, and I WAS RIGHT! Packers won, Stealer’s didn’t. True Stealer fans know this to be true; something is just not quite right in Pittsburg. There was a lot written this week that Big Ben needs to go; that his lack of mobility and diminished arm strength is hurting the team. Armchair Coaches can afford to be like that, but in truth, the Stealer’s problems are deeper than that. Watching the two teams last Sunday, one could see the difference in level of talent throughout the roster.

Packers 30 Santa Clara 28

During Sunday Night’s game, Al Michaels relayed a story from Michelle Tafoya where she had a conversation with DaVante Adams. “Do you want to stay in Green Bay or with Aaron?” DaVante’s response told me how much time he spends with #12, because it sounded so much like him: “I want to do both, I love Green Bay, but I love playing with Aaron, too.”

"People like to say a lot of bullshit and it’s nice to come back in here after a game like that…It’s absolute horseshit to give a platform to people who have no idea (about me)…it’s chickenshit…I think we maybe tried to show that we cared a little bit more tonight…it’s nice…(to) get the trolls off our back”

Packers 3 'Aints 38

WHAT THE FLYING CHEESE CURD HAPPENED???

38-3???

We all had high hopes for our opening game. Unfortunately, it was a horrible game!

Stop the Drama, Let's Play Football

Well, the offseason drama is over and our parodical son has returned. I’m referring to Randall Cobb, who did you think I was talking about? Officially, Cobb is back to help his friend and our new draftee Amari Rodgers learn what it takes to make it in the NFL. Unofficially, it was a request of our new personnel director, Aaron Charles Rodgers.

Packers 26 Buccaneers 31

Matt Lefleur should be struck about the head and shoulders with a rubber hose several times. You’ve got a little over 2 minutes left in the game, 3^rd and goal, you don’t make it (Aaron should’ve run and could’ve probably made it in, he’s faster than Jason Pierre-Pau), and you kick a field goal instead of running it? A.J. Dillon was running into the line and dragging Bucs with him gaining 7 yards! But no, you kick a field goal and give the ball to Tom Brady, who’s an expert at killing the clock.

Packers 32 LA Lambs 18

The stage lights are dark and the curtain drops on Act 2 of SB55. As expected (because we Bleed Green) our hero and his team live to play a part in Act 3. We are written into Scene 1 along with an aging actor Tommy Bay, his sup-porting cast and their director Bruce Arians, who looks like he was released from the ER only if he wore all his monitors during the game.

Gameday "Super"stitions

Very Superstitious Writing on the Wall!! Looks like it says, “Go Pack! GO!!”

Anyone who knows me well, knows I’m superstitious like a spooky old lady when it comes to Game day. Now keep in mind, I inspect Nuclear Power Plants for a living, I have stood on top of a reactor at Full Power. Let me tell you about Super(stitious) Sundays.

Packers 35 Duh Bears 16

Author’s Note: This may have a “Just Sayin’” flavor to it, sorry Jimmy.

I so want to be a fan of MVS. I mean that seriously. I like his speed, his size, he can run routes well. But THOSE HANDS!! When he’s in a high-light on Good Morning Football, the hosts do a sing-song on his voice “MarQUEZ ValDEZ Scant-ling!” I think it’s kinda catchy! When he is on the highlight reel, it’s a treat to watch. It’s a lot like watching Jermichael Finley though. You never knew what you were going to get with him though. The ball would hit him in the hands and drop to the turf. Roberto Duran the boxer used to be known as Manos de Piedra, Hands of Stone.

Packers 40 Tightens 14

Before I start about the Packer game, Let me say a few words about the Badgers. Final Score UW 42 ~ Wake Forest 28. To those that watched that game, it was one of the wackiest bowl game ever. First we spotted them 14 points before tying the score at halftime. We didn’t get the lead until 1:20 left in the 3rd. Wake Forest had 518 total yards to our 266 yet we held a 7:44 edge in time of pos-session. The reason for the UW victory? 4 INT’s by UW with a total of 176 return yards, netting TD drives of 9, 2 & 3 yards. Then to be true to the year that is 2020, the crystal football atop the “Duke Mayonnaise Trophy” comes loose in the locker room, crashing into infinite pieces.

Packers 24 Panthers 16

A few observations: Jersey Mike’s subs is stilled called Jersey Mike’s, not just Mike’s. I think the Jersey is just redundant; we’re already in Jersey, shouldn’t it just be called Mike’s? There isn’t a way to sync XM homegame feed with the games on TV. For some reason, Buffalo Wild Wing decided to close at 10 on Saturday, so I had to leave and drive back to my hotel.

Packers 31 Lyins 24

That was fun! Packer fans at Spare Time and around the world had a ton of things to cheer about during Sunday’s victory against the hapless Lions. But then there were quite a few groans and curses as well. Too many for a team (and fan base) intent on winning a 14^th NFL Championship and 5^th Lombardi Trophy this year. Let’s go through all the groaners before we get to the good stuff about the Packers’ win which conquered the NFC North.

Packers 30 Egulls 16

The Green Bay Packers are getting cocky. There. I said it. They think they’re so good, they’re spotting teams a quarter of football, and then deciding to play.

Packers 41 Duh Bears 25

One thing I have to admit, duh bears have style. If you are going to loose to the Packers for the 100th time in the series history, do it in style. This makes the Packers THE only team in the NFL to win 100 games against an opponent and has now done it twice (the Lyins being the other).

Packers 31 Indy Ponies 34

I do not blame this loss on the team. I definitely do not blame this loss on MVS (Dude is getting death threats! Seriously?!?! Those people need help! I did send out a tweet to him in support!) I blame this loss on the coaches.

Packers 24 Jaguars 20

Well, I thought Packer John had given me a cupcake game review assignment this past week. After the Packers smoked the Jaguars I was going to simply type all the reasons I love the Packers, about what a fantastic team they have this year, how much fun they are to watch, what great camaraderie they have, how everybody is on the same page of the playbook, blah, blah, blah, kiss-kiss, hug-hug, smiley emoji, heart emoji, Lombardi Trophy emoji.

Packers 34 Santa Clara 17

After I got home from the game early Friday morning, I turned on the NFL network to see what they thought about the game. To no ones surprise, they thought Aaron was great and mentioned how much Davante meant to Aarons’ game. Not much else was said about the other 9 on offense or any of the 11 on our defense, even though they did deserve “some” credit.

Packers 22 Queenies 28

The following statements are true: “Statistically, always punting on 4th down makes no sense. When the team gives up the ball on their own 5 yard line their opponent has a 92% chance of scoring. When punting the opponent still has a 77% chance of scoring. But since a team converts on 4th down 50% of the time, the math says they should never punt.” – Dr. Sheldon Cooper, Professor, Astrophysics, Cal Tech. This is also true when your kicker is hurt, and the wind is blowing at 35 mph.

Dr Jane Goodall was crouched in the bushes next to me as we peered at the scene before us. Goodall, the famous primatologist and trailblazer known for living amongst monkeys for extended periods to better understand their day-to-day lives and sociology, was the original “Jane of the Apes.”
