I've been reading these boards all season but just recently starting posting. I figured I should stop in here to be proper and all.
First off, great site!
I grew up in southern Illinois in a Bears household. My brother was a big fan, so I just followed suit. I "converted" when Ditka was fired--this might not be the place to say it, lol, but I still like Da Coach. So, I 'joined up' in '93 and have never looked back.
I went to my first Packers game in '04--opening MNF @ Carolina (W). Wow. I was stunned to see so much green and gold in the streets. My daughter got a nice photo with Saint Vince as well. We also went to the '05 game where we almost eeked out a W.
This time the kid got her hat autographed by Javon Walker, while I glared at Drew Rosenhaus (lol) who was accompanying him along the sidelines. We moved to Houston recently, so it may be a while before we get to go to another game.
Anyway, just some history. Now I just have to dig up a LeRoy Butler pic to gimme a 'face' on here. :lol:
