Oh crap, Samkon Gado is injured.
What else can go wrong this year?

1. I think it will be better if you don't win another game.
Don't get me wrong, I hope you spank the Bears next week for obvious reasons, but this season is a wash. Right now you have the 3rd draft pick (if you hadn't beat the Lions, you would be tied for getting Bush--who is a hell of a lot better than Gado).

I was surprised at people's reactions to this game (I live in Oshkosh). It is like they never admitted to themselves that the Packers really suck this year until this beating by the Ravens. I mean look at the hits rookie took at QB. The offensive line really bites. That is a MAJOR concern that needs to be addressed (letting both guards go last year didn't help much).

Anyway, from a Vike's fan, I feel for you.

2. You have a point.
A top draft pick is about the only good that is going to come from this season. We're going nowhere this year. Sherman should start thinking about next year. Problem is, Sherman may not have a job next year at the rate the Pack is going. I heard people calling for his head last year and we had a mediocre year.

3. Favre has all but said that if Sherman is gone
Favre won't be back. Though, after seeing the looks on Favres face last night, he has to be thinking about hanging up the cleats.

4. That will be a tough day for Packer fans
I didn't like Farve when he first came to Green Bay. I thought he was an arrogant jock without a humble bone in his body, but he eventually won my respect as a person. He's a great player, but only because he was part of a great team. The fact that he has been struggling the past few years is just an indication that he can't do it alone. It's easy to blame Farve's troubles on age, but clearly other parts of the offense have been degrading as well under Sherman.

I think Farve still has some good seasons in him, but it won't happen if the rest of the team can't do their job. I'd hate to see him quit, but it's beginning to look like we need a change somewhere.

5. We must have bad Karma
I've never seen injuries like this year.Let's just burn the records from this year.We all need to be good so the good Karma will return.

6. You know what I'm wondering?
Why is everyone blaming Brett, or Sherman, and not the new GM? I mean, isn't he the one who dismantled the offensive line? :shrug:

I knew we were in deep shit last summer, when we lost all those free agents. :(

7. I thought the same thing, Rev.
Too much good talent went out the door.

8. As soon as both starting guards were let go
I knew the year would suck for Packer fans; the injuries only added insult to injury (haha).
