Brett Favre – The Aftermath
Jul 29th
Now we survey the wreckage.
Brett Favre’s decision to remain retired instead of joining the Minnesota Vikings, has some serious ramifications. The Vikings organization… hahahahahahahhahahaha!… sorry, lost my train of thought. Oh yeah, the Vikings. Let’s start at the top, with the chief bonehead.
Vikings coach Brad Childress released a statement yesterday, saying that the Favre saga [...]
Brett Favre Drama Is Over – At Least For Now
Jul 28th
Brett Favre will not join the Minnesota Vikings, according to coach Brad Childress.
Childress sent a text message to the Associated Press confirming as much.

Brett Favre Conflicted, Anguished About Joining Vikings
Jul 23rd
Former Packers quarterback Brett Favre is said to be conflicted about joining the Minnesota Vikings. ESPN uses the word “anguished” in relation to Favre’s decision-making process.
So, Favre to the Vikings isn’t quite a done deal yet. However, Favre apparently feels a bit of obligation to Minnesota’s coaching staff, who have been recruiting him since his [...]

The Disaster That Awaits – Packers Backup Quarterback
Jul 21st
When the Green Bay Packers drafted Brian Brohm in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft, I was excited. Not only did the Packers seem to have a solid future backup and potential trade bait, but they got a guy who was once considered a sure-fire top 10 pick in the second round. I [...]

Packers Weekend Video: Jared Allen
Jul 19th
Jared Allen, as with all members of the Minnesota Vikings, is a cunt. And typically, we use these Sundays before the NFL season begins to put the spotlight on a member of the Green Bay Packers.
However, this Sunday is different because Total Packers now has it’s own YouTube channel.
And so, since we haven’t posted this [...]
Golden Boy vs. Country Boy: Hornung Blasts Favre
Jul 15th
Apparently, some Green Bay Packers legends haven’t forgotten about fidelity, loyalty and Packer Pride. Or maybe Paul Hornung thinks that the Vikings suck that much (they do). Either way, Hornung doesn’t seem to think a Brett Favre wearing Vikings purple necessarily guarantees a Lombardi Trophy for our idiot neighbors in the land o’ lakes.
“(Favre) ain’t going to [...]
Packers Weekend Video: Max McGee
Jul 12th
Max McGee – had to be the most colorful member of the Green Bay Packers, ever.
Whether he was getting drunk the night before Super Bowl I, chasing broads with his roommate Paul Hornung, talking about Herschel Walker carrying watermelons, or drinking too much in the booth, Max was an interesting and lovable guy.
He was awesome [...]

I think we’ve been over what the next best thing to Green Bay Packers football is, before, so I’ll get right to the point. A couple weeks ago, I pulled some friends together and went up to Malibu to do a photoshoot.
Those friends happened to be none other than the gorgeous Sunny Leone and photographer [...]
