Terrell Owens Says Something Smart
Sep 8th
That would be a headline in and of itself because, let’s face it, most of the things that come out of Cincinnati Bengals receiver Terrell Owens’ mouth either aren’t too bright or aren’t worth listening to. That alone wouldn’t get Owens a mention on this blog, however. No, Owens would either have to say something [...]
Viable Options For the Packers to Replace Mason Crosby
Feb 17th
Green Bay Packers’ kicker Mason Crosby had a terrible year in 2009 and the team was reluctant to make a change down the stretch, with good reason. There wasn’t a kicker on the market who was any better. Crosby made a career-worst 75 percent of his field goals. That ranks him 25th in the league [...]
No Love For Mike McCarthy
Jan 18th
Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy got no love in the NFL Coach of the Year race, despite some speculation that he might. As we predicted, the Cincinnati Bengals’ Marvin Lewis ran away with the award. McCarthy finished… well, he didn’t get any votes, so he didn’t really finish anywhere. Oddly enough… or perhaps not [...]
Packers Defensive Line Will Win Super Bowl
Jan 7th
The statement alone is preposterous – the Green Bay Packers defensive line will lead the team to a Super Bowl title – but the statistics back it up. We’re talking about the Defensive Hog Index, developed by Cold Hard Football Facts. The Green Bay Packers rank first this season and that’s significant because, since it’s [...]
McCarthy Coach of the Year Candidate?
Jan 6th
Those are the last words I ever thought I’d write in this space, but it appears, at least in some circles, that Green Bay Packers boss Mike McCarthy is a legitimate candidate for the NFL’s coach of the year. Personally, I’d think the Cincinnati Bengals Marvin Lewis is high on a lot of lists, as [...]
How Good Are USC’s Rookie Linebacker Trio?
Dec 11th
The Green Bay Packers know first hand how good Clay Matthews is. Matthews has made a major impact on the Packers No. 1 ranked defense this season, culminating in his winning NFC Defensive Player of the Week for his play against the Baltimore Ravens. Matthews tallied six tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble in [...]
A Tale of Two Teams
Nov 13th
First, there were the two losses to the hated division rival and the former face of the franchise, Brett Lorenzo Favre. Then, there was the demoralizing loss to the only winless team in the league, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Most recently, there was the “come-to-Jesus” offensive meeting during which several players “really had it out” [...]
Ochocinco Had Plants!
Sep 24th
I’m sure you were thinking what the rest of us were thinking when Cincinnati Bengals’ receiver Chad Ochocinco did the Lambeau Leap on Sunday – what scumbags from Green Bay sold those idiots their tickets? Well, we may never know how the transaction went down, and with good reason. If I were the asshole who [...]
Simmer Down Now, Simmer Down
Sep 23rd
Some great words of wisdom tonight from the Press-Gazette’s Mike Vandermause, who tells rabid Green Bay Packers’ fans something I’ve repeated many times already this week: Calm the heck down people! Admittedly, this is quite the turnaround from Vandermause’s Sept. 20 column “No quick fix can solve this mess,” which may have even spurred some [...]
The Green Bay Packers Are Bad
Sep 21st
There, I said it. The Green Bay Packers are bad, and it’s depressing. It’s become pretty apparent why the Green Bay Packers are bad, too, after a 31-24 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals at Lambeau Field. This is a Bengals team that scored seven points last week against the Denver Broncos. That’s seven points against [...]
Bengals 31, Packers 24 – Observations and Opinions
Sep 21st
To quote The Jeffrey Lebwoski, the plan has crashed into the mountain. More painfully one sided than the close score suggests, yesterday’s Green Bay Packers’ 31-24 defeat to the lowly Cincinnati Bengals exposed more weaknesses and vulnerabilities for the Packers. The Packers’ offensive line play was even shakier than last week and aside from a [...]
Good Morning From Total Packers
Sep 20th
Hi. We’re not going to beat around the bush this morning. We wanted to live blog during the game, but fuck. We’re fucking hungover. I don’t mean that we got really drunk last night, because hell, we certainly did that. I mean, we got really fucking drunk last night, and then had a bunch of [...]
What To Do About Ochocinco
Sep 18th
As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco wants to do the Lambeau Leap this Sunday when he comes to town to face the Green Bay Packers. “I’m just really focused on going out there and having some fun, and looking to be embraced by the Packers fans, and hopefully I [...]
Green Bay Packers Fans Are A Bunch of Drunks!
Aug 13th
Green Bay Packers’ fans are a bunch of drunks, as I alluded to yesterday. But we’re lovable drunks, goddamit! From your Green Bay Press Gazette: Nine people were arrested Monday night at Lambeau Field during the Green Bay Packers-Cincinnati Bengals preseason game, Green Bay police reported. About 12 other people were ejected. Most arrests were [...]
Preseason Game 1: Bengals 20, Packers 17
Aug 12th
The Green Bay Packers first preseason game is in the books, and although we could care less about preseason scores – especially that of the first game – the Packers lost to the Cincinnati Bengals, 20-17, before what seemed to be a full stadium of drunken Wisconsinites. Beyond the obvious questions, I wonder how many [...]
