[QUOTE="crockett3663, post: 478152, member: 8653"] I must confess that as a child, eventhough I was somewhat of a Packer fan, I was actually more of a...ahem...[B]Viking[/B] fan. Before you all decide to gang tackle me and burn me in efigy, you must understand that this was during the mid 70's, when the Packers were are their just about worst in their history, while the Vikings (with HOFer Fran Tarkenton at QB) were winning what was the NFC Central on an annual basis. In my teens I finally began to understand the affection that Packer fans had for their team. I moved away from being a Viking fan and became a full fledged Packer fan in the late 70's. As you all know, the Packers were not that successful during the 80's, but I knew that to be a true fan meant sticking with my chosen team thru the good times AND bad. I am proud to call myself a Packer fan today, and I've already instilled a love for the Packers in both of my boys, having them both added to the season ticket waiting list on the day each of them was born.
