Aaron Rodgers On Letterman
Feb 8th
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was on The Late Show With David Letterman last night. Probably the most amusing aspect of the interview is Rodgers looked a little nervous. He’s constantly fiddling with his hands, his shirt, etc. That, and there are obviously a few vocal Packers fans in the audience. The video is [...]
The Empire State Building Goes Green And Gold
Feb 8th
As a salute to your world champion Green Bay Packers, the Empire State Building was lit up in the team’s green and gold Monday night. Over the weekend, the building was lit in the colors of both the Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers, with the north and south sides in green and gold and the east [...]
And We’re Back!
Feb 8th
It’s taken a little longer than normal to return to reality. The feeling that the Green Bay Packers are Super Bowl XLV champions is still a bit surreal. Sunday night we celebrated. In my case, a little too long. Yesterday’s hangover was brutal. It was also the best hangover I’ve ever had. Hell, I might [...]
Lombardi Trophy Comes Home
Feb 6th
In a fitting end to a season marked by adversity, the Green Bay Packers overcame another spate of injuries to key players and outlasted the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 to win Super Bowl XLV and bring the Lombardi trophy home. It was an amazing game from the start. The Packers dominated the first half, scoring two [...]
Walden Looks Like A Long Shot
Feb 6th
Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Erik Walden looks like a long shot to play in Super Bowl XLV. Walden, who suffered a high ankle sprain in the NFC Championship game, did not participate in Saturday’s jog-through practice. “Erik’s going to have to show us something before the game,” coach Mike McCarthy said. “Obviously we’re going [...]
Fuck The Black Eyed Peas
Feb 5th
It’s come to my attention the Black Eyed Peas will be performing during the Super Bowl XLV halftime show, which makes me throw up in my mouth a little. If there were ever a bigger group of sellouts, I’m not aware of them and I don’t use that term lightly. You see, I used to [...]
McCarthy: Sunday Is Our Night
Feb 5th
Confidence instills confidence. Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy is supremely confident about this game and I suspect his team is too. After Friday’s practice, McCarthy had this to say. “We’ve had an opportunity to go over every situation twice for our game plan, so we’re ready to go. The one thing you want to [...]
Predictions: Packers vs. Steelers
Feb 5th
Steffen: First of all, I just want to say that this is truly a great Super Bowl matchup. Football fans should be thrilled (apologies to Chicago, Minnesota and New Jersey). There isn’t a single bit of analysis I can offer that you haven’t already heard. “Pittsburgh has more experience, blah, blah, blah. Aaron Rodgers is [...]
Pouncey Confirmed Out
Feb 4th
Pittsburgh Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey will not play in the Super Bowl, coach Mike Tomlin confirmed Friday. Pouncey injured his ankle in the AFC Championship game and although he’s been in a walking boot most of the week, he insisted he had a 75 percent chance of playing Sunday. He didn’t practice on Friday, which [...]
Here’s The Gayest Thing You’ll See All Day
Feb 4th
Actually, I take that back. Calling this gay is an insult to my homosexual friends. This is something else entirely. It’s lame. It’s loserish. It’s a sign this guy is never getting laid for the rest of his life, unless he runs into a 300-pound hillbilly with five teeth from West Virginia. They like the [...]
Remember That Super Bowl Ticket Contest? A Homeless Couple Won
Feb 4th
If you recall, last Friday and Saturday we helped with a Super Bowl ticket giveaway by the Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau. The objective of the contest for participants was to find a mystery man roaming the streets of Green Bay. The winner received two tickets to see the Green Bay Packers face the Pittsburgh [...]
In Taiwan, They Think Roethlisberger Has A Clock For A Penis And Favre Has A Gun
Feb 3rd
Here’s another video animation from those crazy bastards at Next Media Animation. This time, they’re apparently trying to describe the Pittsburgh Steelers, Green Bay Packers and the Super Bowl to a nation that cares little about it. They’ve spiced things up by including a naked Ben Roethlisberger, who not only gets caged and Tasered, but [...]
While Roethlisberger Is Out Boozing, Rodgers Is Watching Film
Feb 3rd
Does anyone else feel like the first-time Super Bowl jitters do not apply to Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers? There’s all kinds of evidence to suggest the Super Bowl-experienced signal caller has an advantage over a guy making his first appearance in the game, but Rodgers has always been unflappable, whether it be dealing [...]
Seven Questions (And Answers) About The Pittsburgh Steelers
Feb 3rd
In case you haven’t heard, the Green Bay Packers are playing the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday. As such, I thought it would be a good idea to trade a little info on our respective teams with Chris at Nice Pick, Cowher, one of the best Steelers blogs we’ve seen. And yes, I chose seven questions [...]
No One Likes Ben Roethlisberger And Republicans Like The Packers
Feb 3rd
Maybe it’s his stupid, fat face. Maybe it’s his plodding style of play. Maybe it’s because he’s a rapist. Whatever it is, no one like Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. That is, at least according to a poll set to be published in the Hollywood Reporter. The poll, conducted by Penn Schoen Berland, showed Roesthlisberger [...]
Listen, Broads…
Feb 2nd
The other day I did a little interview with Betty Confidential, which is a site for broads that talks about things only broads are interested in. The topic — how to pick up a guy at a Super Bowl party. A good topic, I thought. Most seasons, I’m really only going to a Super Bowl [...]
Epic Packers Super Bowl Snow Sculpture
Feb 2nd
I think this pretty much speaks for itself. The Green Bay Packers Super Bowl XLV sculpture was created by Tim Abraham and reader Ryan Huls stopped and grabbed a photo of it for us. It’s located on Starr Ave. in Eau Claire. As I learned from channel 13 in Eau Claire (who knew Eau Claire [...]
This Is How The Steelers Prepare For The Super Bowl
Feb 2nd
Hey, they’ve been in the Super Bowl a few times in recent years, so maybe the Pittsburgh Steelers don’t need to worry about the usual distractions. Maybe they have their own way of preparing. I’m sure if quarterback Ben Roethlisberger wasn’t engaged, he’d be out boozing and trying to rape hook up with some local [...]

Here’s One Reason To Be Optimistic About Sunday
Jan 31st
We haven’t talked a lot about the Pittsburgh Steelers, particularly in a negative light. That’s because the Pittsburgh Steelers scare me. More than the Philadelphia Eagles, more than the Atlanta Falcons and certainly more than the Chicago Bears. Coming into the playoffs, I thought there were two teams who could give the Green Bay Packers [...]
