    Hello all of you, My name is Troy, but you can call me shiftysdad.

    I'm from Calgary, Alberta, Canada; I am a Packers fan primarily.

    Now, this may sound odd to some of you, but I'm also a Cowboys, Raiders, Dolphins, and Colts fan.

    I own 2 Packer hats, 2 Packer bottle insulators, a size 40 (I'm not that big, I just figured I should make the jersey size authentic) Brett Favre Packers Jersey, and (my favourite) a Brett Favre autographed picture frame.

    And to all of you cheeseheads, I bid you a fare greeting!

    Yeah one of the down fall of switching to a completely new forum system. :( However, that should never be a problem again with the new system. So many more benefits...

    I am glad you toughed it out and got your account working! :)

    Haha, the funny part about it:

    I was trying to get it working for a while, it wouldn't let me change the password etc. Said my E-mail is not in the system, weird stuff like that. Finally I decided to log in with my original screen name and password and bam, it worked.

    Hi Shiftysdad,
    I just joined the forum and noticed your post as being "From the North". I am from Saskatchewan now (near Yorkton). I'm wondering if you are into the CFL as well. If you are a Stamps fan I am willing to overlook it as I see you have the good taste of being a Packer and Dolphins fan as well. ;)

    Anyway... greetings to a fellow Northerner!

    Yorkton eh?

    I was there this winter, unfortunately (I hate how cold it gets in Sask.)

    I am a Stamps fan... secondly.

    Along with you, I'm a Riders fan, and I love Pilsner.

    I may be born and raised in Calgary, but most of my family lives in Regina and Saskatoon. My mother grew up in Yorkton, actually.
