Back then, it didn't matter to me - all I wanted was a Super Bowl win like all of Packer Nation, and I'm still not willing to give my New Orleans Super Bowl hat back, BUT STILL:I don't want the Saints. I want the Bucs. I want the Bucs BECAUSE they dragged the Pack's a** all over the field during the regular season. I want the Bucs BECAUSE they have Tom Brady who knows how to win huge games. Granted he's not the same player - BUT - he is the same GUY. On top of that, the Bucs defense had its way with the Packers first time around and by games end, the Pack's offense looked like whipped puppies - well, I think the whole team looked like whipped puppies. "The Cold" isn't going to be a deciding factor. I think that is just over-hyped. It is time ... for the Packers to exert their will. To be THAT team. For my own mental well being, for the remaining time I have on this earth (because I don't let things go ... ever), I need for this team to alleviate the specter of another Carolina did our light work memory. Once that is done, I'll start in on Kansas City.</blockquote>
