I actually went down to see that game. Decent weather for December. Nice parking complex, comfortable seats, and hospitable fans. Packers seemed to wish they could have the week off. Like going to work when you do not feel like it.
You mean, like EVERY day?!?
I'll be retired at the end of January & moving to Nevada this spring! Can't wait to leave snow & cold behind forever.Good for you! Where in Nevada?You mean, like EVERY day?!?
Mesquite, right on eastern border with AZ. 9 golf courses, 3 casinoes, and warm/dry climate.
Short drive to Zion, Bryce canyon, grand canyon, and several more. Beautiful area.
Or to look at it another way: Winning teams win, and losing teams lose. Because that's what they know how to do.
Don't forget the other loss - one and done in the playoffs
O oh. How can I forget. I went through that and my Wife left me in the same month! I wrote a Tune (not a song because I didn’t pair this one with lyrics or Singing) that week. All Paired Photos compliment of the Packers.com
Good point. They were 15-1 that year. Who beat them in the playoffs? And was that 2011-2012, the year after the SB win? Thanks HE.
Yes, the year after the SB. We get derailed by a wild card. A 15-1 season made it looked like a Dynasty was coming. The Giants showed all of us what defense was that year. And they did get lucky against the Pats.
That was a very fun season, until it wasn't. About as much fun as you can have without winning it all. I guess the Giants had to show us what defense was though, because GB sure didn't have one.
The Giants! Damn they beat us in an NFCCG in GB as well. Favre was still QB and threw one of his game-killing INTs, I think in OT. It was very cold and the Giants prevailed and won the SB. Tom Coughlin's nose looked like it needed to be amputated it was so damn cold.
Yes, it was about minus 3 at kickoff. It felt colder. Giants missed several FGs before they finally hit the one. They stopped our run game and we could not get anyone free over the middle. A roughing the passer penalty on Nick Collins as well as a holding penalty on Al Harris killed us in the 2nd half. GMen even fumbled their own INT that we recovered. Then they fumbled a punt near midfield in the last 2 minutes but we did everything but land on it. That could have and should have been the winner for us.
