[QUOTE="net, post: 20518, member: 200"] Couple of points: "big game hunting" in Wisconsin isn't elephants as the phrase implies, just the notorious white-tailed deer, now so abundant they are pests. The current Packers Board of Directors is also full of businesspeople(including Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig), so that hasn't changed much. What happened in the '70's and 80's had more to do with trying to relive the Glory Days of Vince Lombardi's Packers of the '60's than anything else. The Board also was overly fiscally tight, and didn't allow the team to sign upper-echelon players. The Packers finally cleaned house on the Board of Directors and hired Bob Harlan to run the club. He recognized the Lombardi revisited approach had to go, better personnel decisions had to be made and he hired a guy named Ron Wolf who brought the Packers to the modern era. [/QUOTE]
