Really, the owner is a bigger coward than those other two asshole, because he could have stopped it but chose not to. As a lifelong Packer fan I can only hope that this dysfunctional organization continues on its same path, although I know the fans are not the same as the owners and his the people of Minnesota are very progressive. Good Luck to you in whatever you chose to do.
