Victory

I realize that of the few people who read this blog, even fewer care one ounce about football. But this is my blog and I can write about anything I want. And being an avid Packer fan I choose to write about that.
This season for the packers started out with the oldest rivalry in football, Packers vs. Bears. Every time they meet they beat the stuffing out of each other, no matter what their records, and this week was one of the roughest. I won't write a whole game recap here because anyone who cares already knows what happened. When Aaron Rodgers (QB) threw the game winning 50 yard touchdown pass to Greg Jennings (WR, one of my favorite players in the league) I struck this pose, roughly speaking. There was only 1 minute left and when Al Harris (CB, and owner of the coolest dreads in the league) intercepted a pass to seal the win, I jumped up and down and my hair struck this pose, roughly speaking.
And so the Packers are off to a commanding 1-0 record and the Bengals are coming to Lambeau next week. Two of the people in my guitar class at the college are flying down to Wisconsin for the game and I am murderously jealous. Why is it that rich people have all the money. Life goes on.

To say you jumped up and doun is an understatment. I recall a few arm pumps and some rather loud wooping.

What was the only team to not score a single point. How I loathe our QB. Life does go on.

The rest of us may not care about foot ball but reading posts like this make it interesting none the less. Post to your hearts content.
