commentary...

being a shareholder/owner of the Packers last year was a honor,because people may have thought i would sell out,(laughing)and become another team's fan,and yet,i could never been prouder of a team in my life,period... the Packers went through four quarterbacks,had a defense that was so injured,and had so many starters injured,or on injured reserve that from week to week i never had a clue what team would show up... the Packers have a motto,"Next Man Up",and last season was never more apparent,of that motto... they were down,but never out of the games... they finished 25th in total defense(bad number),but with that many injuries,the Packers were written off by pundits(and it looked terrible,at times,a 40-10 loss to the Detroit Lions comes to mind),but as i noted then,the Packers had a way to the playoffs,if bounces went their way... they won critical games(a 37-36 win over the Dallas Cowboys,a game in which they were down 26-3,at half-second best game of year)and needing a win in Chicago in week seventeen,and getting it with 36 seconds left,with Packers' lore of "4th and eight",a rainbow pass from Aaron Rodgers,to Randall Cobb... what a tough year,but i was very honored to be a shareholder/owner of a team whose motto of "Next Man Up" was NEVER more apparent to a proud shareholder/owner,period...
