See how easy that was? Even blatantly sarcastic comments get reactions.

That was well executed.  I was going to say something, but it was too entertaining

And I'm a Packer's fan.  :p

We bow to ye, O wizard of provoking the internet message board.... with such grace you manage so difficult a task...

"We won the super bowl, na na na na boo boo!"

"Peaking at the right time" is a great spin for the Pack almost missing the playoffs last year.  Green Bay is lucky to not even be half as cocky as their fans.

I guess when you haven't had a sniff at a playoff since 1999, any teams fan base may appear cocky.  Yet, your initial comment, to which I responded, was not intended as cocky?

Continuing with the cocky theme, the Packers have lost more superbowls (1) than the Lions have been to (0).  The Lions are one of four teams with that distinction.

Anybody know of a fan website ostensibly devoted to MU basketball?

... and sure, any above average QB could have won the Super Bowl for the Packers last season given all their weapons on offense, but don't tell that to any Packers fans.

Even Favre agrees with you, so you can't be wrong...

08:06 AM ET 10.05 | Welcome back, Brett Favre. [In a radio interview, Favre] was asked if he was surprised that Rodgers had already won a Super Bowl -- which matches the number Favre won in his 16-year tenure with the Pack -- even though this is only Rodgers' fourth year as the starting quarterback. "I'm going to be honest, I was not surprised," answered Favre. "The biggest surprise to me would be that he didn't do it sooner." ... Favre talked more about Rodgers in the interview, but walked a fine line between praising him and saying he's the beneficiary of the star players around him. "He's got tremendous talent, he's very bright and he got a chance to watch and see successful teams do it right," Favre said of his former understudy. "And so he just kind of fell into a good situation. On top of that, he's a good player. I don't think there's any pressure on him now, the talent around him is even better than when I was there."

I am guessing you do not understand the purpose of the Superbar ...

We're back! SKOL VIKINGS! 12-4

Go Lions!  Go Hotlanta!

Aww that's cute.  The little guys who never win anything can join hands and hope that the big boys don't bully them.

5-0.

Oh, and 1-0 NLCS lead.  Sucks to be from anywhere outside of Wisconsin.

Whatever, bro.  Like you won't be jealous when I'm at the Lynx parade on Tuesday!

if women are not high on your list of priorities then this might be true

I bet basketball and baseball fans in DFW are pretty happy right now. The Cowboys and Bucks offset each other

Most of the uggos I knew that went to MU were from the Chicago area.

Additionally, I believe that UW had a pretty high ranking this year for 'hot girls'

That's why I'm praying for no NBA season!

[MU B2002]

They will be the #3 seed in the NFC behind Atlanta and Philly.

Hards,
I would like to officially admit I was wrong.  Very wrong.  Packers look unstoppable, and in route to a NFC #1 seed.


Please tell me where to ship your delicious beer.

A tad early to concede isn't it?

I'm not sure what to think of Matt Ryan and the Falcons.  It seems to me that the Packers have had trouble with the big play this year, but they never seemed interested in attacking the Packers at all.  Everything was short, but I don't know if that was by design or Ryan just being careful.

Is there anything you have seen from the Eagles / Falcons that lead you to believe they will not only right the ship (which will likely happen), but also be able to overtake GB?

There is a reason Matt Ryan and Mark Sanchez are called Captain Checkdowns.  Matt Ryan is so beyond overrated it's laughable.

MU B2002 isn't typically one to get ahead of himself. I mean, just check out his avatar.

Well played.  


I am still waiting to get her acceptance letter in the mail.  I am not sure what the holdup is.

Well then lets move to major college sports.  Wisconsin - 2 Sweet Sixteen teams, plus a top 5 CFB team... Dallas? (TCU for football... but no basketball)

Whilst on the topic... does anyone know if the winners of the World Series, BCS "Championship," Super Bowl and NCAA Tournament in a given six-month period (October - March) have ever hailed from the same state?

[GGGG]

In 1972, the As won the World Series, USC won the AP National Championship, and UCLA won the basketball championship. 

The 49ers lost in the NFC Championship Game.

Nope.  How about this.  I go to the store and get myself something good, and you keep the Fat Tire and choke it down, yourself.
