Green Bay Packers
 

 Lambeau Field. The history. The tradition. The smelly fans.


FAI Nuggets:

• Contrary to popular belief, the Packers play on a field that is neither frozen nor a tundra

• It takes roughly 1.2 seconds to spot a fan wearing a roadkill carcass in the stands at Lambeau Field
  

• Their fans wear blocks of cheese on their heads. Seriously.

• Quarterback Brett Favre considering retirement so he can concentrate on being fellated by John Madden full-time.

• It is purely speculation at this point that the team is considering changing the color of their pants to "Zubaz"

The Pack played three rookies along the offensive line last year and are in need of depth in that department, a situation that could extend to an upgrade for Bubba Franks at the tight end position. McCarthy's team will head into the 2007 season with a promising nucleus on defense, though another playmaker along the defensive line and in the secondary would be a welcome addition.
