Strong stroll for a mangy stray

quote:

During his career, Davenport was given the nicknames "Dookie"[10] and "The Dump Truck."[11] While playing for the Packers, a letter writing campaign to the team equipment manager jokingly asked that he be issued jersey number 2 for practice,[12] which is still referenced during the opening of the "D-List" show on WAUK ESPN 540 in Milwaukee.[13] All are plays on the incident.

Okay that one's just pathetic on the DB's part. If you're gonna take that inside position guarding against the post then you better actually force him (or at least try and force him) towards the sidelines. Assuming he's in man coverage you can't just give away the middle of the field like that. Playing really far off too for a play run from the ten yard line

Yea Gilbert Brown could have pulled that inside lane on the DB. But whatever, GB SB fever dreams.

They're called bubblers because the Kohler company made the first drinking fountains, and it was literally named the bubbler. It's like people calling tissues Kleenex, but for some reason only WI and parts of Pennsylvania call them bubblers.

Somehow these fucknuts are going to elect him again for the 17th time.

For every Walker re-election, Rodgers will suffer one broken bone.

Wisconsin is not really a hillbilly backwater compared to MN though, Wisconsin went for Trump by less than a percent and MN went for Hillary by 1.4%. Steel yourselves MN, Koch money is coming to destroy your state too.

quote:

Practices like Tuesdays help to get some of that work done and progress made, especially during an extensive, third-down blitz drill that pitted the No. 1 offense and defense against one another.

On Monday, Rodgers felt the defense “kicked our (butt)” in a similar session, but the offense sharpened up on Tuesday. A deep seam pass to rookie receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who made a leaping catch, and a crossing route to veteran Randall Cobb were two standout plays against heavy pressure.

The defense still had its moments, too, including one when linebacker Blake Martinez came knifing through the middle unblocked on a blitz.

A master at diagnosing pressures, changing protection calls, and getting the ball out, Rodgers was caught by surprise that time, the type of play that has him just as excited for the direction of the defense this season.

“They made an adjustment on me today that I haven’t seen in the league for a while,” he said. “Very impressive stuff. You love to see it from that side of the ball, and it’s exciting once we get into real games that count to watch those guys and the full package of plays and adjustments they can do.”

Please please please let Pettine's defense be at least league average.

I'm partial to Kopps' but that's also because it's what I grew up with. Maybe that's part of it. Leon's is decent.

Also Kopps' has huge rear end burgers.
