I doubt he will show a speech from a pretty bad movie. I hope not at least.

 

[EJ Blitz]

oh god. is it sunday yet?

that was pretty good.

 

[PackerFan87]

Really? nice. I almost cried. Good video, thxs.

 

[Texpackerfan]

Great video but I seriously doubt he will use that video for inspiration. I could be wrong but if he does, it seems odd.

Great video but I seriously doubt he will use that video for inspiration. I could be wrong but if he does, it seems odd.

Yeah I highly doubt he'll remind our team about the Patriots OL returning a kickoff, right before the big game.

 

[Texpackerfan]

Maybe MM would want to show it to break the tension. I could see the team, thinking, "are we supposed to be inspired an actor who probably has no idea what it's like to put yourself on the football field?" And then they break out in laughter.

I mean I like cheeseheadtv too but I doubt that they got an exclusive on what MM is going to say/do/ show the players.

 

[KilrB]

LOL, loved the clip of Burt when the bit of dying as individuals is up at 2:44!:viksux:

 

[OshkoshWisconsinite]

Good video, but I don't really see them watching this....

 

[Forget Favre]

I doubt it too.
Charles Woodson has been the one giving the insprational speeches just before and right after the games.

You can't really top the whole thing ending with "The president's not going to come watch us in the Super Bowl. We're going to go see him. Whitehouse on 3. 1,2,3 Whitehouse!" with a cheeezy you tube video.

The one thing that really turns me off is brett at the end. Don't get me wrong its funny for the fans and me to lol, but for all the team has gone though. Thats the last thing thay need to be reminded of. -____-

 

[Reverend Conehead]

I gotta admit I found that pretty inspiring. Other the other hand, I really doubt the team needs anything to get it motivated.

Ya never know...they have some good contacts

 

[Lunchboxer]

All they need is Woodson to get them Motivated.

Should say the President speech again. If hes not coming to see us we are going to see him. That would be funny.

 

[Wood Chipper]

that was a good video. pretty much every clip went with what was being said

 

[Forget Favre]

Actually a clip from the movie Hoosiers was shown.
NFL.com news: Packers WR Driver misses another practice but probable to play

Given the fact that this is the first Super Bowl for many Packers players, McCarthy turned to Hollywood to drive home the point that a football game is a football game -- even when it's played on a bigger stage.

McCarthy showed the team a scene from the movie "Hoosiers," in which Gene Hackman's character measures the dimensions of the court in an attempt to convince his small-town high school basketball team that playing in a large venue isn't much different than playing in their own gym.

"Everybody loves the movie 'Hoosiers', where the basketball team walks into the arena and they measure the foul line and it's 15 feet, and they measure the hoop and it's 10 feet, and everybody goes 'OK, it's big in here,'" McCarthy said. "That's our approach. We're going to play football."

MM said he was bringing in a speaker but would not say who it was. My guess, Bart Starr.

 

[Rodgers in the House]

I love that speech. The movie was so so but Al said it the way it was.

I think that's the biggest reason they won't show it. MM and others try to stay away from Favre. It would be extremely out of character to use THAT/HIM as motivation to win the SB.

That blogger is just another example of reporting unconfirmed information through twitter and people running with it as fact.

MM will have a special guest speaker but even that hasn't been disclosed yet.

 

[Rodgers in the House]

I agree with Texas. He lost as an individual an nobody here can debate that. Andre Rison, Javon Walker all the same. It pains me to say Favre fell from grace like that. Kind of like Darth Vader.

I wanna know who it is. I hope they tell us.

That's a very good guess that it could be Bart Starr.

I think this is where the blogger got his information wrong. A movie clip from a sports movie. That didn't seem as out of character because he didn't use it as inspiration but more so to take the point from that speech.

Glad this wasn't for real. Would have been kinda sad.
