[QUOTE="IPBprez, post: 12494, member: 51"] [color=orange]This is from Packernet - but I think it'll be fun to see who comes closest --[/color] [b]By Pete Salamone.[/b] Well Packer fans, it is truly the dog days of the off-season when time drags like the last fifteen minutes of that strategic planning meeting right before lunch.
