Why would Rodgers tank the season just to get McCarthy fired? When it’s his legacy he’s playing for? Come one man, seriously smh
Why would Rodgers have had to tank this season, the rest of the team did it all for him ;)

There is a bit of a shock at seeing our Packers be this bad and not making the playoffs.
Some fans will come up with crazy excuses and conspiracy theories.
For myself, I like to believe they did it to save the world.
An alien race kidnapped Aaron and told him they would destroy the world if he didn't play badly this year.
So if you ever see him, be sure to thank him for saving your life.

Name 6 species of bees. Now name 6 bird species.
I could do the birds but not the bees without a google search.

More importantly, though, shouldn't the Arizona Cardinals be the Arizona Phoenix, rising from the ashes? Don't know the plural of phoenix...phoenixes? phoeni? No matter. It would be cool if they were just "The Phoenix", kinda like Cher or Beyonce or The Donald. :coffee:

Arizona Phoenix sounds like a minor league baseball team who is famous for having a concession stand menu item that is a cheeseburger with a scoop of ice cream on it served with fries coated in sprinkles.

Part of me thinks his THROWAWAYS are due to McCarthy's plays. I think it could be a "you called this play and I'm not taking a risky throw and bailing you out to make your play call look good, I'll throw it away" but other than that, making bad throws or losing on purpose, absolutely not. This season had to happen to get rid of McCarthy, it was time. But Packers with the 4 wins, could easily be 3-5 more wins and McCarthy is still the coach. (Patriots, Rams, Seahawks, Vikings x2, Cardinals) And now we have another season of questioning MM play calls and his relationship with Rodgers and now Rodgers is 36 and another year wasted.

I don't care if we win or lose, I just want to see some ******** fire and passion, especially out of #12. That's all I ask for this Sunday.

Davis School District announced the mascot choice earlier this month. The high school is under construction and expected to open in fall 2018. Spokesman Chris Williams said the phoenix mascot was selected by prospective students, and was the decisive winner ahead of runners-up “farmers” and “eagles.”
Farmers?
Seriously?
Man, talk about a lame name!

Kyle Fraughton is overthinking it. ;)
No one was probably even thinking it until he brought it up.
"Thanks dad!"

In any case, I should be thankful they rejected my name suggestion: The *****cats.
What?
Don't look at me lick, I mean, like that!

If you are talking about the mythological bird, there is no plural. Only one existed at a time. ;)

Otherwise, I think phoenix could be its own plural — like elk or sheep — or the traditional “es” could be added to make the word phoenixes, like boxes and foxes.

That was my thought... but my knowledge in mythology is pretty limited... my stepson on the other hand is a total geek... i’m sure he would have known lol.
