Pro - Green Bay Packers

I got the BGE  MM primarily to ensure excellent grub for the games when TAILGATING! Thank all of you for sharing your recipes.

This will be the greatest year ever.

  • I cannot wait. Although being born and raised in Indiana I tend to favor college hoops. Here are my teams regardless:

    College: Purdue Boilermakers

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    Gotta support the Broncos. Maybe Peyton will get it done this year. He's running out of time. 

    Dont really follow college, but hope the Cowpokes do well. 

    Hopefully we'll have the EggHead fantasy football again. Was a great time last year. @MaskedMarvel did an excellent job organizing the league last year. Maybe we can bump the pot up this year.

    I hear you man. Wife is a dawg fan. Gamecocks have to put up with Clemson fans! Clemson will likely beat us this year so it will be even worse

    I used to be a college only kind of guy.  Then I started playing fantasy football so I follow the pros. I'm bleed red and black for the Dawgs.  I don't really have a pro team I bleed for I just have a group of players I like. If I had to pick a team it would be the Lions.  For some reason since I was like 4 I have always liked the lions.  Matthew Stafford going there is the cherry on top.

    I have a long standing bet for $50 with a buddy from high school on the Georgia- Georgia Tech game every year.  I win more than I loose.  My Alma Mater Wofford gave y'all a scare for a half last year @theyolksonyou.  Hopefully we can beat/ give Clemson a good game this year.  It's hard living in SC as a dawg fan surrounded by Clemson and **** fans.

    I never got into college, I watch some bowl games, but that's about it. 

    NFL is obvious. I am a Raider.

    I split time on 49ers and Dolphins.  Stanford and Texas for CFB.  I'm not die-hard about any of them.

    Of course, tuition x2 at TT makes me a Red Raider fan as well. 
    Love you bro!

    Go Badgers; On Wisconsin! Gonna see some fun play on the offensive side of the ball this year with Cryst at the helm!

    I don't really follow NFL all that much any more, but I've been a life long Raider fan. That being said, I'm back in Wisco on a more permanent basis now and judging a KCBS competition at Lambeau this weekend, so maybe I can allow myself an NFC favorite to go with my AFC team. Is that okay???

    Cheers all -

    Fantasy football and my "Shufflin' Crew" is the only thing keeping me interested in the NFL.  An average game is 3 hrs 12 min with only 11 min of action.  Starting to realize I have better things to do with my time.  Will reassess when Da Bears fire Cry Baby.  But I'm loosing loyalty, last year's NFL dark cloud took a toll.  

    And I'd much rather go to a Hawks game than freeze my ballz off at Soldier Field, can sit in a treestand here and do that.  

    The excessive celebrating a tackle for no loss is sad when I was fortunate to grow up with "Sweetness".  

    One of our lineman blew out his knee celebrating a sack on Brady when we were getting our asses handed to us, good stuff.  I did enjoy Young, Dilfer, and Ray-Ray's rant on the Bears ownership and Cutler post Saints game.....epic.

    Chiefs fan and have been since I was knee high to a grasshopper.  It didn't hurt that my dad coached one of the Chiefs offensive lineman in college and he would come and stay at our house back in the late 60's. 

    As for college, I am a Missouri Tigers fan and a Kansas State Wildcats fan.  I lived in Kansas for over 20 years so I kind of adopted KSU and I get to meet Bill Snyder in 2003 and have been a big fan ever since.  I met coach Snyder because I took care of a problem on the field when I was working security in 2003.  He sent me nice letter thanking me and a KSU football shirt.  This is what I had to take care of.  Fun hearing the crowd when I did this.
