Solstice approaching!

Packers - What the hell’s going on out there!

Takeaways from trip to Lambeau

500th game for Fan of the Game - that’s like at least 60+ years of games.  Wow

Will post some pics & vid - find yourself email from team was kinda weird. 

Difficult to Defend the Packers Defense any longer 

Are the players bad? (Bad GM) New Poll - who is most to blame? Joe Berry, Matt La Fluer, Brian Guteknents 

2 “contested catches”  - Bucs didn’t have to “battle” at all for a catch 

First ever perfect passer rating for opponent QB at Lambeau

Mess that MLF created and no changes coming this year

“Miscalculated” Jaire’s injury??? De’vondre Campbell on X

I get annoyed when they treat us like we are dumb

Offense has been solid.  Another great day for young playmakers. Wicks / Reed.

Next Up:  Another PEP talk as Philippe and Erik will join me again on Saturday to talk holiday traditions and cover songs.  

Oddball Items:

Intro Song remains the same. Been thinking about intro song & then heard Ghost Riders in the Sky while at the pharmacy; Keeping it for now.

Poll Update 3 Votes all say too much Christmas music.

National Horse Day btw - Poll: Are you a fan of all the “national yada yada yada days” er no?

Some Insight on How National Days happen

Got to go to lunch today at Sweet & Salty Pig.  Pretty good stuff

Team Stream:

 Leave the World Behind - Movie.  Pretty entertaining until the ending. 

Loudermilk - good / not great.  Jon Livingston fan - some good spots but dozed off a few times. Not exactly bingeable. 3 seasons.  

Penalty controversy during Packers vs. Chefs carries over

Mahomes & Reid go off on penalty late in Bills game

Looks like sore losers now 

So much emphasis on the penalty - it was only 2nd down and Chefs were near field goal range 

Many Many plays are run in a football game.  Whining about 1 call late in a game is weak.  I am now anti-Chefs and hope they lose out. Maybe all the hype, commercials and swifties are making an impact.  See it happen to just about every “dynasty”.  Bottom line is Chefs aren’t as good as they used to be.  

3 Big Things ahead of Giants game

MNF Recap of Giants loss in NY

Failure in ALL 4 Phases

Defense is still sus - the first 7 yard are FREE  

Lost leads in several games

Joe Barry seat MUST be hot

Defense is better without Darnell Savage.  Mr Flyby

Bright Spot - Isiah McDuffie

Pass rush gets shut out

Offense miscues more understandable 

Going to the jet sweep well too many times

2 Turnovers 

PTSDeepBall 

Bright spot - Tucker Craft playing well.  Jayden Reed is a playmaker.

Need something beside Dillon at RB

Special teams failures Missed FG; Turnover; 

Need to leave Jayden Reed on PR

Coaching.  Letting a Rookie UDFA QB set an NFL first. 80% completions.  2 TDs 70yards rushing and no sacks or turnovers.

Badger Bowl Game FYI vs. LSU

Christmas music : Too Much Or Not Enough Poll Question 

PSA for the too much crowd - Ventures have Christmas songs 

Team Stream - Shrinking Good show.  Bingeable rating.  Shorter episodes.  Sitcom but not safe for kids.

Basketball Jones: Check In on Wisco hoops

Bucks get decisive win - onto Vegas

Giannis not impressed - away from family and quietly says “rich get richer” when told he gets $100k for the win. 

Badgers Big Win vs. MSU

Marquette Check-In

MNF Upset

Trevor Lawrence injured - list of starting QBs getting injured is growing

Green Bay Packers

Not much “aftermath” when winning

Some posts/comments about Jordan Love haven’t aged well 

Defense/tackling probably the biggest concern 

Packers sign Kenyan Drake

Nate Davis Power Rankings

Packers vs. Giants preview

HDH look around the league 

Celebrity sightings everywhere 

TRY Award for coaching staff - all 3 phases working last night

Jordan Love now getting some love

Opening drive(s) were key.  Reminiscent of 1990’s Holmgren football

Great play calling for the most part 

Young playmakers all over (again) 12 of 25 completions to rookies

9 different receivers caught a pass

Anders Carlson making big kicks late in December at Lambeau

Correction:  MLF 16-0 in December 

Defense needs to improve tackling but that was the epitome of bend but don’t break holding KC to field goals in the first half

Crazy final 2 minutes

Bad Call rant

Personal Foul obviously wrong

Clock stoppage (Game should have been over prior to hail mary)

Media - excited to get home / watch some coverage

First thing I see is SVP Sportscenter saying the play of the game was the non-called interference. 

Seemed everyone from NBC to ESPN to NFL officials really wanted KC to win

IMO Kansas City Chiefs just don’t have the weapons.  Reminiscent of Green Bay Packers and Rodgers having the slowest WR group a few years back. 

Game balls to Love & Nixon for not fighting back lol and maybe Watson

Keep winning at home and you won’t see as many opposing fans show up

Look around the NFL week 13

From da foodie: Coconut Rice & Panko Breaded Shrimp (printed off the shrimp recipe in 2015)

This was early on in my journey of wanting to explore different flavors from our own kitchen

May need a bit more egg and panko

I did 2 lbs of shrimp in dutch oven and doubled recipe - worked out ok. Took tails off for easier peeling and was fine. 

No such thing as minor surgery 

2 fingers for crutches

New phone this week - activated night before surgery day

New patio door installed this week 

Forgot to mention Dan Campbell middle finger to Packers going for it on 4th down & fake punt

Watched some Bucks vs. Miami - Jimmy Butler didn’t play
