[QUOTE="Anubis, post: 9821, member: 257"] I'm from Whitby (just east of Toronto). I have family up in Barrie. :) My father was an avid football fanatic, so I grew up watching far more football than hockey. Green Bay became my favourite team as I always liked the games played at Lambeau outside on real grass, no matter what the weather was like. As I got older, I learned more about the team and their history until I became a dyed-in-the-wool cheesehead... lol. I watched them from the lean years, through Superbowl XXXI until now. Not from this camp. Unlike most of my countrymen, I feel hockey is a pathetic shadow of its former self. Not meaning to offend anyone here, but the only team I used to watch is the Leafs, and (quite bluntly) they suck. Regardless, if this ridiculous player dispute continues through next season it will be a miracle if there is an NHL left to talk about. The players should wake up and realize that Canada can't carry the NHL, and hockey is not popular enough in the U.S. to command the types of wages the players demand... but this is a different debate altogether. Thanks for all the warm welcomes, and let's hope Favre will see another Superbowl before he lays it down for good! Go Pack!!! :D Regards, Robert C. Hedley [/QUOTE]
