What TorchMan said! :thumbsup:
I was born, raised, and have for my entire life lived in Wisconsin...the "Land of the Wind Chill Factor" and...most importantly...the "Home of the Green Bay Packers!"
To give you an idea of the fan loyalty for the Packers in Wisconsin, it wasn`t until shortly after my 27th birthday that I learned that not everyone in this world starts each day and ends each day by holding a Saint Vincent Lombardi medal and chanting "God Bless the Green Bay Packers!"
Going into the Bears game last night, everyone in Wisconsin was confidant that Brett would be coming back for at least one more year. Now, of course, we`re not so sure. We`ll just have to collectively hold our breath here, and hope that he does return.
As far as our rivalry with the Bears, it is one of the oldest traditions in football, and is fiercely nurtured and maintained by the fans of both teams. Having said that, though, it has also always been grounded in a deep respect for each other. So with that thought in mind, I wish the Bears every success in the playoffs. Go Bears!
But finally, of course....
God Bless the Green Bay Packers!
