When you have an extra home game (under the current scenario with 17 games) you only have one home pre-season game. If one of your games has gone overseas, you don't pay for that game in your season ticket invoice. As it relates to GB, the two season ticket holder bases flip on who gets the added game. It was supposed to belong to Milwaukee this year, but it got moved overseas, so they'll presumably get it in 2024. When that happens, it's the Green Bay base that gets stuck with the single pre-season game. Prices have changed in recent years, so that the nominal price of the pre-season game is lower than the regular season games. That's actually made it easier to sell those tickets. I won't be happy if/when this happens, but I'm not gonna get worked up over something that hasn't happened yet.

I noticed that. I also got a kick out of their shot at the XFL, saying that the USFL wasn't a 'Hollywood creation'. Hello, Rock!

Sure - but also eliminated due to weather are New England, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, among possibly others. Glad to see I hit a nerve

Even though you're not missing anything, you're missing it. Cities would bid for the ability to host, and would likely need sufficient hotel rooms and the like in order to bid.

LOL. Just so we're clear, you're talking about the team that has owned the Bears for the last 30 years? The team that beat its biggest division rival, the other team that's been around forever and been relevant (sorry Cardinals), at THEIR house in the NFC Championship game, when if their coach hadn't been too stupid to lollygag down the field on its final possession of the last regular season game instead of trying for a FG or TD which could have knocked their rivals out of the playoffs? Ok, enough of me poking fun at little brother in the division (oops - now I'm done). Yep, we crapped the bed against the Bucs in 20 and the Giants in 08 in the Conference Title game. I'll take our success over nearly any other team. nobody has more NFL titles than us. To my actual point - as a season ticket holder, I have the privilege of sitting in my seats for the playoffs. I check a little box each year when I renew my tickets that says 'yep, if we have a home playoff game (or games), I'm paying for those as well. I get that the league will make more money by selling the rights if this happens. I won't be happy about it. Nor will the season ticket holders at nearly any stadium, least of all the one with a seating capacity of 80,000 (all of which are sold to season ticket holders, by the way).

Understood, but this would take the stadium with the 2nd or 3rd highest capacity (depending on which list you look at) out of the rotation (most likely) due to weather conditions and lack of hotel rooms.

Wisconsin fan. Same, other than anything referring to PJ himself (aka anything to do with Rowing the effing Boat) should be gone.

The Giants were 9-7-1. The Vikings were 13-4. A team had NEVER won 13 games and had a negative point differential. This isn't difficult to grasp. And yes, I know that my team didn't make the playoffs. That doesn't change this.

Or Colin Blowhard. My apologies to anyone who DOES watch (for not being smart enough to NOT watch ).

Does this mean that the one-offs for various holidays are gone? Big if true. How about infrequently worn Negro League tributes/throwbacks - do they count in that total?

I was sorta expecting MORE red - but I don't know how to add it without making things vibrate. Maybe an outline on the number or an additional sleeve stripe with the gold?

You spelled 'because he is due to get $60 million from the Packers' wrong

I think you are on a better course using red than another shade of purple. That second purple would either be too lavender or wouldn't offer enough contrast (in my mind). There's also that red in the eye. Interesting thought!

All good - thanks for asking. Trying to catch up on all of the stuff I've missed here over the last three plus weeks. I've spent some time between Christmas and New Year's with my (hopefully) future wife as she's building a new house, and then was in San Antonio on business last week. I saw none of the Packers' win over the Vikings, and very little of the loss to the Lions. We weren't going anywhere in the playoffs, as the 49ers would have boat raced us. I'm in a better place in life knowing that how my teams perform no longer affects my emotions Go Pack Go

No. I didn't miss your point. I disagree with it. You say that the black socks break up the monochrome (and state that it works well, in the post I originally quoted). I contend that neither black nor pink socks makes this any better. We won't agree on this, nor do we have to. If they REALLY wanted to break it up, they could just wear the white pants and look better in total. In that case, the sock color matters less.

Pink socks would break it up, also. Also, they too would suck.

Those two statements are totally unrelated. A helmet that is flat back on the front and metallic gold on the back was also entirely unique, and it sucked.

Real people? Like who?

After the first round, they're only three years. Undrafted free agents are whatever they get, which is why a player is better off being undrafted than selected in the 7th round. They can choose their team based on actual opportunity and not be locked into a set contract.

First round picks have 4-year deals (required). The team can pick up his 5th year "option". Then they're subject to the franchise tag. This is his 5th season.

Agreed - but the contract that he is currently playing under is his rookie deal. AN agent can't really get much more for him on THAT contract. NOW he needs an agent. Actually, he needed one at the point that he could begin to re-negotiate.

The NFL did. It's his rookie deal. take it or leave it. He has no agent, or he'd have a new contract already.

If it isn't slightly italic and you didn't have the graphic below, my eyes would be seeing him wearing #77.

I get a kick out of his white glove. It's like the opposite of Darth Vader.

Because two random people ran a poll and said to make it so???
