I guess it's just better for my nerves if I don't watch the Packers until Aaron gets back.

I kinda thought that the team would rally around the new kid and work their butts off.....but, I guess that's not what happens in the pros. Green Bay is going no where without A-12.

although my own angst is coming from a different team.

I just can't watch Patriots games anymore.

Well, not live, anyway. I DVR them, and next day I check the score. If they win, I watch the game. If they lose, I delete the game. The stress is just too much for me these days.

So tonight it's the Manning/Brady Bowl again and the Pats are underdogs in their own stadium.

Not going to watch it.

My stomach and blood pressure will thank me for my foresight.



PS...hope AR recovers soon so you can go back to watching the games again.

Sounded like the Pats came from behind lost the lead and ended up winning the game in OT. Hope your nerves and blood pressure remain calm the rest of the season. the game sure sounded like a fun one to watch. At least the Pat won. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2013/11/25/nfl-week-12-tom-brady-patriots-overtime-classic-peyton-manning-broncos/3695465/

When they think any team accomplishes something astounding by beating the Packers w/o Rodgers. Like yesterday's first win by Detroit in 10 years against them in 10 years.
