Yes we play to our opponents. We need to play great against the bad teams, then we can do some good in the playoffs.

Seems like thats our story almost every year. Sad

I think Sally Jenkins states her case very well:
Sally Jenkins - After a bloated Super Bowl in Dallas, it's time to rein in big game

450,000 for a flyover of a closed stadium?

Yep....I think its pointless if the stadium is closed. And they don't even mention that they are Navy F-18s and they dont eve get a closeup shot. Most people cant tell if it was Navy or Air Force or whatever.....
They could do a lot more with it if its justified for Navy recruiting purposes.

This may have been hit somewhere else, but I just was thinking about it today and wanted to pass along:

How close do you think Aaron Rodgers was to being a Redskin? The Packers selected him one spot ahead of where we took Jason Campbell, and I mean I'm sure there was a lot of debate for Green Bay as to weather to take him or not... I just thought it was kind of interesting. I know Campblel was Gibbs guy, but Rodgers was also projected to be long gone... just something I was thinking about.....

Also looking through that draft board... was Rogers (Carlos) the best player taken in the top 10? Maybe Antrelle Rolle, but I think otherwise he actually might be. Thats a pretty weak top 10 for 2005

Mind you Gmanc those are not my words, but the writer does make some indisputable points.

Like a seed in soil without much nutrients, Aaron Rodgers have not developed and produced as well as he did in Green Bay. Sure, he would have developed some, but not to his maximum capabilities.
