Happy 100th To The Packers

I was in Green Bay this weekend and had a chance to visit Packer practice on Sunday.. My phone is still AWOL (expected back today) so I dont have any pictures (and I know in todays social media world, if you have no pictures it didnt really happen, right?) It was interesting watching the team train. We were closest to the O-line as they worked on their pass blocking techniques. Also interesting to watch the QB's work on their footwork dancing around a long block of wood before firing passes into a net target downfield. The trek from the locker room to the field on the kids bikes was fun to watch as well as the players interacting with the kids.

It was also the 100th “birthday” of the Packers on Sunday. Here is the story of the “birth of the team

Quotes Of The Day

“The problem is not Trump, it's Trumpism. It's not one man, but the tens of millions who support him. If you dare not say that for fear of offending them, you also will not address the root causes of this societal disease. That's where our work must be done.”-David Rothkopf

“Jeffrey Epstein’s “suicide” in prison was the easiest prediction of 2019 — didn’t even have to activate Conspiracy Bill for this one. That dude was never seeing a courtroom. This is the most F’ed up start to finish criminal story of the 21st century.”-Bill Simmons

“Don Barr (Bill Barr's dad) hired Jeffrey Epstein to teach at Dalton school.

Feds release docs a few days ago implicating Dems (but not Trump! Surprised?) w/ Epstein.

Bill Barr runs the DOJ, so runs the prison where Epstein died; Barr now runs the death investigation.

Dots?”-Thom Hartmann

“Hey guys! Stop acting like the secrets died with Epstein when all you have to do to know the secrets is BELIEVE THE VICTIMS.

Okay go back to your conspiracies now!”-Travis Helwig

“Donald Trump’s an international disgrace. He has no humanity, no empathy, no love for anyone except himself, no morals, no values, no work ethic, no ethics in general and he wasn’t even legitimately elected. He’s a criminal who belongs in prison. So do his Republican accomplices.”-Scott Dworkin
