[QUOTE="Chicocheese, post: 404187, member: 4187"] Well, I was 9 or 10 years old when the Packers won Super Bowl XXXI. I was a fan before that, but maybe for only one season? I really can't remember but I DO remember slugging my step-brother Jeremy (Cowboys fan.) in the chest as HARD as I could when they beat the Packers in the playoffs. I have never, ever looked back and never will. I think that may just be my earliest Packer memory. Like I said, I was maybe 9 or so when I started rooting for the Packers, though I really don't know HOW that happened. My dad, my hero, is a Rams fan (born in L.A.) and my step-brother is a Cowboys fan...so you would think I would have latched on to one of those two teams but I guess I just decided to go my own way. I am glad I did. The Packers are by far the greatest organization in all of professional sports. To be completely honest I believe I found this forum the night-of or the day-after the the Packers won Super Bowl XLV. I was worried that people may think I was a band-wagoner but I just needed to have some peeps to share my joy with! Yes, my wife is a Packers fan, but she really doesn't get football all that well and cheers for the Cowboys (that is her Dad's team.) when they are on TV too. So, she really wasn't a viable outlet. However, I did NOT burn my Favre jersey (my dog now wears it on gameday), though I was very irked. I feel it is best to think of all the good that Favre brought to us, and not the bad. Every time I see a classic Favre/Packers highlight I start to wish that things went better. That he just played smarter ball in the '07 NFC championship game, went to SB XLII, smoked the Pats and then retired at a peak. On the flip side of that coin, I would not trade the last 4 years of Packers football for those two games I wish would have happened. (I hope all that made sense.) Oh, and to answer a few of the questions that I saw asked here: Curley Lambeau LeRoy Butler Antonio Freeman's circus catch. ...forgot other questions.... Finally, thank you all for having me around your forums! It is an awesome place for a Packers fan to come! [/QUOTE]
