Wes, it appears this week New Orleans and several other cities had big parties to honor Inbox’s 12th birthday (at least, I assume that’s the reason). You do anything special to celebrate? Lunch at your favorite Mexican restaurant? Use Spoff’s chair as a footrest? Down a frosty root beer while typing Inbox?
I enjoyed a cold (root) beer and (an untouched) slice of king cake. It was a good day.
There is no story until there is a story. When will there be a story? When all is said and done, more will be said than done.
When there’s a story to be told, my friend. We could’ve harped on every possible Aaron Rodgers scenario the past two weeks. Would that have led to more clicks? Indubitably. But would it have accomplished anything? Probably not. I can’t wait to talk about the Packers’ future with you all in (hopefully) the not-so-distant future. But I’m also not going to dump an ICEE down your back and tell you it’s snowing. We’ll be here once a decision is made. Until then, we wait patiently. That approach might go against every human tendency but I feel it’s the most responsible way to handle it.

What are the top snowiest games in Lambeau history?
Everyone knows about the Snow Bowl game vs. Tampa Bay in 1985 and the Packers’ 2008 playoff win over Seattle, but one of my personal favorites is Green Bay’s 22-21 win over Atlanta in December 2013. It was cold (nine degrees) and snowing at Lambeau, but Matt Flynn still threw for 258 yards and Eddie Lacy added 65 rushing yards and a touchdown. In his second-to-last NFL game, Johnny Jolly recovered a Mike Neal forced fumble at the Atlanta 21 in the fourth quarter to set up Flynn’s game-winning touchdown pass to Andrew Quarless. One week later, Flynn and Lacy combined to lead Green Bay to its greatest second-half comeback in a win over Dallas. That was a December run to remember and too often forgotten.
Thoughts on draft picks? Seems like we will have some holes to fill this year wondering where they might start?
You never know what the Packers will do until that card is turned in on draft night, but defensive front (seven) and secondary (five) have been the spots where Green Bay has drafted the most first-rounders over the past 12 years. So, that’s your safest bet if past is prologue. Realistically, though, we have to see how the boards fall into place after the combine and pro days before pontificating on who might be available at No. 15.
