OK, I'll say it ...

The Packers drafted both Tucker and Carlson.

Can't wait to see the first sideline photo of the two standing side-by-side.

EDIT:  Not likely unless Tucker Kraft plays with his first name on the back of his jersey.  Derp.

After Rodgers flames out and Saleh gets canned, he'd be a nice new DC in GB

Rodgers already planning on skipping practices. The more things change the more they stay the same.....

Looks like Packers will be opening the season in Chicago and ending it v Chicago at Lambeau. Lots of noon games. No home game til week 3.

At Lions on Thanksgiving. No game on Christmas.

I like the Noon games especially later in the year .

Also Packers travel second fewest miles in 2023 season.

Schedule showing the Packers some Love.

Looks like they don't get their third home game until the last weekend in October. Jeez...

What happens when a Packers game is in conflict with the start of deer hunting season?

If it's a home game, DUI rates skyrocket

Not ideal, but from a season ticket holders' standpoint it still beats last year when the Packers were at home for three of their last four, including two in January.  Once you substract the 2nd and 5th home games for the old MKE "gold" ticketholders, 2022 was an awful home sched for STHs.

There's either a lot of deer carcasses on the roofs of cars in the Lambeau parking lots or a lot of armed Packer fans on their way to the woods!

Pack signs Simone Biles husband. A safety.  Rodgers out, Simone part of Packer nation, we got the better of that celebrity trade off by a mile.

Adios #2, hey?

[CreightonWarrior]

Adios #2, hey?

We would've had a few less problems the past couple years if our kicker could kick the ball into the end zone.

[tower912]

Adios #2, hey?

I say that every morning.

Not a great look for #4.

Favre has portrayed himself as an unknowing and tangential participant in the welfare-embezzlement scheme. But it appears nobody benefited more. Interviews and an analysis of legal filings and records, which include dozens of text conversations—some of which have not previously been public—paint Favre as a ringleader from start to finish.

Favre had promised his alma mater, Southern Miss, that he would build a volleyball facility for his daughter Breleigh's team there. But he was obsessed with not paying for it himself. So he got Mississippi's welfare agency to build indoor and beach volleyball facilities for him—using money intended for the poorest people in the nation's poorest state—and then he kept pushing to get more for a business venture, with the governor often helping him, according to texts from those involved.

"Brett Favre's repeated demands for this grant money were certainly the driving force" for millions of dollars in illegal transactions, says former U.S. Attorney Brad Pigott, who had been hired by current Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves to independently investigate the scandal—until Pigott started looking at the volleyball deal and Reeves fired him.
