That is all.

I would be wary of any Packers fans this week, they may do harm to you or themselves. If someone seems depressed, you may want to contact your HR department. HR can speak with your co-worker about their feelings and help them work through this tough time.

As for me, I am just happy that after this week I will no longer hear the man love from all the annoucers.

As for on the field, does anyone have his record against the Vikes? I bet it was around .500.

As a fellow Vikes fan put it: "It's like we've just won the Cold War."

We are currently bashing the dude who wore the AJ Hawk jersey before the NFC championship game. Calls for the "Majik Man" and Mandrich to come out of retirement have started. We also asked if he is going out at lunch to buy an Aaron Rogers jersey.

Do you think they retire Favre's jersey on opening day?

I am cautiously giddy. I could see him changing his mind, because besides being "the ultimate competitor", he also loves to feel the love from the media and fans.

If this is, in fact, the end, I look forward to the emptiness that John Madden, Peter King and all fudge fans will feel next year.

bg, right now I picture King, Madden, Michaels and Theismann all together somewhere, holding each other and sobbing uncontrollably.

How will the NFL ever recover from this? I say it's over. Just fold the league already.

I don't actually think it will make much difference, unfortunately. GB's on the upswing, and even with Rogers, they're clearly the best team in the NFC Central. Rogers looked more than adequate the last year or two when he's been given a chance, for one thing. And now that they've stumbled upon one of the best RBs in the league, they're sitting rather pretty, and shed a lot of salary losing Fahv-Ree.
