[QUOTE="Un4GivN, post: 641851, member: 8782"] Lol I was waiting for you! I think that is because I find NFL quarterbacks in general fascinating. I post about about plenty of things though... On Ty Montgomery, the Arizona game, playoff odds, Rodgers being a coach! lol, and Woodson's retirement. But yes, I do take a liking to quarterback and cornerbacks oddly more than other things. Envy? Ummm sure, I suppose that is correct. I think anyone that stated they didn't would be lying. Who doesn't want to travel 6 months out of year... Visit every place ever seen in books. That's awesome stuff! Plus I could pay for Packer tickets to every game home/away and private jets to take me. But as people no... I truly do not. Besides the honest truth if I envied anyones life it's Brady's... Supermodel wife who makes more money than he does... 4x super bowl champ. And I don't talk badly about him. Aaron has a better arm.. Brady is better leader. That's how I see that. No hate for either. Just objective opinion. I remember Lomardi (EDIT: I wasn't alive then I'm not young, but I was raised in the biggest Packers house ever, still visit my family for games on Sunday, we watch during thanksgiving dinner, its part of who we are.
