Dulak;199349Is there still a live gameday chat going on with a live feed? ... the few times I looked (earlier this year) there wasnt one.

I don't know when you were checking, but there are usually members in the chat room two hours before the game and often most of the day after the game.

wpr;199344let's face it in regards to the remaining teams on the schedule, GB's "toughest test" is always the team they are facing this week.


The only thing that I would say I'm worried about is the Giants have their back against the wall. This is for all intents purposes, their season on the line. They lose, they are pretty much eliminated from the playoffs.

The Packers played the Giants in a similar position last year and blew the Giants out at Lambeau Field.

Skip Bayless brought up this point just a few minutes ago.
He says the Giants will be bringing it Sunday.

I say, "...And the point is... ?" (Skip, you Packer/Rodgers hatin' douchebag)

EVERYONE we play has been/ is
"bringing it" against the Pack.

Who wouldn't be?
We are the UNDEFEATED SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS.

BRING IT, BITCHES, WE got somethin' for yer ASS, I say !
[laugh]

I wonder what complete bullshit Skip will have the chutzpah to throw up after we kick the livin' shit out of the Giants.

Very true every team is bringing it because the Packers are the Champions, however, they are bringing it AND have their season on the line. That can not be discredited, even if the slapnuts Skip mentioned it.

How sad it is that a professional team in any sport has to bring it up a notch the week the play a specific team.
I understand rivalries tend to get a little more emotional than a run of the mill game.
And the long seasons that baseball, basketball and hockey have make it a little hard to be at your peak every single game.


But these guys are professionals.
They should give their all every time they step out there.
I hate watching NBA most of the time because too many players just go through the motions waiting for the playoffs.
And if they don't make it so what.
They still get paid.

I question the manhood of any team and the coaching staff that would not play just as hard last week against the Saints as they would against GB.
I also question any sports analyst that would suggest otherwise.

I agree with you, but it's a fact. Players are people too and when you assume they are not, you are failing. No question, you should play your heart out against a team that was 16 - 0 the season prior as you should a team that was 0 - 16. Absolutely no question, but sometimes you need to dig deep and find something extra. Every great player does this. Brett Favre's extra was fear of being replaced. Aaron Rodgers' has a chip on his shoulder. Barry Sanders was told he was too short... etc ...

You're also basically saying teams don't play a little harder in the post season too. Which, is a complete farce.
And this game is essentially a playoff game for the Giants.

See, that's how I feel.
I predicted a 21 pt win and some folks thought it will be closer.

EVERY team wants to knock off the Champs.
The Vikings played their hardest.
Look what good it did them.
da Bears went all out.
So did the Chargers.
If anyone, the Chargers were probably our biggest threat.
I honestly don't think Brees will have such a good game if we play them in the Playoffs as Woodson, T Williams, Shields, and the rest of our crew have gotten better as the season progresses.

The Giants will play all out.
They will lose.
By a lot.

I hear what you are saying and I agree with it for the most part.
I suppose I should have quantified my reply.
If teams/people played a little harder for the bigger games that "extra" effort should be fairly small.
Giving the old 110% we hear mentioned so often instead of the 90-100% they normally would operate at.
I was bashing players that coast at 60-70% then bring it up to 90% for a special occasion.

Definitely have a problem with players not giving it their all, but I understand giving it your all and finding a little something extra for certain games against certain people.

Isn't winning and losing in the NFL 95% determined by the amount of talent a team has, and how well they are coached?
Since the Packers have the most talent and one of the top coaching staffs - shouldn't we be winning every game?
In fact, a loss should be almost unacceptable.
I say almost because we do play the Bears twice a year, who definitley make up the other 5%.

Nobody, and I mean nobody phones in games like the shmucks in the NBA.
