If you want to know how fans in the Pacific Northwest are feeling about this game, check out this video (link is to a local radio/television site, mynorthwest.com):

2/3: Packers much more likable than Steelers

(That's Brock Huard, if you know who he is.)

Brock use to be a Colt for a while. His brother Damon was a 'phin. That's a blast from the past...

Good video, by the way :)

I just had a post disappear - ****. I had one disappear before the last game too, that was perfectly benign. Hmmm. (Or maybe I'm just losing it.)

I think there are a lot of people rooting for the Packers out in the Pacific Northwest (I'm a bit north of you). People want to see some redemption for the Seahawks, or so I've been told. I shopped for Packer gear yesterday and there were several other people in the store doing the same while I was in there.

You're not alone!

Yeah except I've been a packer fan since I was born. I've never lived outside of Oregon, but I've always loved my packers.

Thank you all for well wishes, but lets direct them at our team, and hope they can bring Mr. Lombardi's trophy home, in an injury free game. Its about time we made it to the Super Bowl, we might as well win it while we are there.

Yeah. Bart Starr is a pretty cool guy. And it's nice to see the 60s era champions out there doing this :)

I've actually been wearing a Starr jersey when I watch the games. I was wearing one a couple years ago when I met Dave Robinson. He commented on the jersey and said I was "a true Packer fan".

I have been walking around in circles all morning, stirred up the hangover in me and had to anxiously rest. Wisconsin State Journal had a great pic of the Packers. Also had a decent column about how a Pittsburg writer said Ben and Troy are the only reason's he figures Steelers are going win. Said all logistics go to Packers exepct those two players.

My answer to that is Woodson is going to play his all tonight, since he would love to play the game as his last. And Rodgers has his favorite shoes on so he has no excuses to lose.

What time does Fox start to broadcast after the pre-game show?
Is it 5:30 or is that the kick off time?
I don't want to miss the coin toss. So any ideas when I should start watching?
Thank you for any answers.

Getting very excited now. I'm confident for a win but whatever happens, win or lose, very proud of the guys for the way they have played throughout the season. A few hiccups along the way but to get this far with all the injuries is remarkable. GO PACK
