Because MrsGrumpy is a Green Bay fan - this season I will be too
I can't stand the New England Patriot fans and I would rather slice my toes off and feed them to myself before cheering on the Giants (ok I would cheer on the giants against the Cowboys and perhaps, god forbid, the patriots).

I know MrsGrumpy is a Green Bay so I would love to see the Packers win a Superbowl for her

23. Here is my dog Bonnie in her cheese head....
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 06:15 PM by LisaM
She is a Yooper, a reliable Green Bay fan, AND, she has the same birthday as MrsGrumpy's dog Jessie.

So there.

3. You're a good person.
I loves me some MrsGrumpy, but not enough to cheer for the Packers. I mean, c'mon. Can't I just give her a kidney? :P

5. Do you even watch football?
:shrug:

If you don't does it matter who you cheer on?

6. I don't think one could really call the Niners a football team lately.
So I guess not. :P

But yeah, the family's had season tickets since I was a wee little sprout, and my kid sister actually got offered a spot on the local pro team when they were starting up. I follow the game.

8. The Packers probably have the best shot at beating the Patriots
But San Diego might have something to say about that.

19. Don't forget that the Giants almost beat the Patriots about 2 weeks ago.
The 2nd time will be the charm!

9. Nope. Can't go quite that far.
I've been a temporary "Packer Backer" much of the season, a) for this very reason, and b) they could've denied the Cowpukes the No. 1 seed that helped them sooooooo much. :sarcasm:

Now, however, we've come to a fork in the road. Bear in mind that I grew up in Conn., and that the Pack's next two opponents are the Giants and, most likely, the Pats. Ouch.

I am, however, seriously considering adopting the Tigs as the Official AL Central Team of KamaAina. How's Dontrelle doin', WannaBe? :yourock:

12. No can do.
Being a life long Chicago Bears fan, I cannot root for the Packers. It's against my religion. I think Mrs. G is a super person, but I just can not and will not root for the Packers and St. Brett

14. Oh my. I should have expected this. OMC is a Giants fan.
not a huge surprise, given that he's in NJ, but this definitely poses a dilemma...

So one of our bereaved dear friends will get a brief respite on Sunday, and the other won't. :shrug:
