There might be a reason for you to hold off on buying another beer between quarters when you’re in Lambeau Field this season. That’s because the NFL RedZone, which broadcasts real time look-ins and highlights from NFL games, will be available in all 32 NFL stadiums this season.

The Vegetarian Brat Rears It’s Ugly Head Again
Dec 15th
We told you that PETA named Lambeau Field one of the most vegetarian-friendly stadiums in the NFL, last month. This coming from the land of fried cheese curds, beer brats and artery-clogging goodness was a bit surprising, if not completely inexplicable.

Add Ravens running back Ray Rice to the growing list of NFL players who don’t want to play in Green Bay. We’re also adding him to our top five list of douchebags in the NFL. Rice, who ran for a blistering 54 yards on 14 carries in Baltimore’s 27-14 loss to the Packers on Monday [...]
Lambeau Field – Home to Beer, Brats and…Tofurkey?

I nearly choked on my bacon and mayonnaise-laden turkey sandwich today when I read that Lambeau Field ranks as the third most vegetarian-friendly stadium in the NFL, according to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. “The Packers may be named after the area’s meatpacking industry, but that doesn’t mean that fans can’t leap at [...]

Lions Winning Respect in NFL, But Not in Detroit
Oct 17th
I love this Detroit News column that proclaims “Lions winning respect in NFL,” and then basically goes on to say that the Lions suck and are going to lose to the Green Bay Packers this weekend. After the feel good headline are these words. When the Lions go on the road to play the Green [...]
Long Lost Game Photos: Atlanta Falcons
Oct 31st
It is true that it has taken some time for me to upload these, which is partly because I am just slow and sloth-like, and partly because the Green Bay Packers lost this game to the Atlanta Falcons(!?). Yeah, I was a little dumbfounded too. Anyway, it was still a cool experience, because it was [...]
