and then he can point out Lebeau's first defensive coaching job was with the packers.

Sure was, and he was a DB for the Lions and I believe he is still top 10 all time in interceptions. He finally got into the Hall this year as a DB. Lots of connections between these teams. Dom Capers was the DC of Pittsburgh in the 90's but left to build the new expansion team Jags and promptly took them to the AFC championship game in their inaugural season. I am really looking forward to this game. Win or lose, I plan on enjoying the game because it could be the last game we see for awhile. I've already promised my family that I won't be my usual vocal and excitable self. For a little while at least. lol. good luck to you guys.

I developed a flow chart to help people with this very thing. Here you go:


HOW TO BECOME A PACKER FAN
1. Are you a Viking or Bears Fan? If no, go to step 3
2. Remove head from ***
3. Procure Cheese, bratwurst, and beer (Both kinds are fine, Miller or Leinies)
4. Cook the brats on a grill
5. Read about a dozen Lombardi quotes - commit to memory
6. Place large wedge of foam cheese on your head
7. Watch the Pack play
8. Follow your team on Packerforum.com
9. At least once in your lifetime - make the pilgrimage to Lambeau for a game

PackersRS....you were raised different than I was....grill the brats in beer? What I learned growing up was that you grill the brats, then let them marinate in a tub of hot beer.
Lol yeah, I meant that.

I've only tasted it once so I don't know how to do it exactly.

I was raised with churrasco and macarronada...

Yell at the top of your lungs if a Packer makes a bad play... yell at the top of your lungs when we have a big play... Yell at the top of your lungs to SHOVE IT IN YOUR FRIENDS FACE WHEN WE WIN!!!!!!

Thats just my advice though...
