Training camp stew- 8/20/09 edition (the series finale)

As Adam previously stated, he and I are pretty much done talking about Judas. In fact, we ARE done. Gene will be weighing in with his thoughts sometime soon, but after that, don’t expect any more Judas stuff from us.

We’re very glad that you all felt as passionate about the issue as we did – [...]

Who will Judas give the rose to?

After talking with Chris today, we vehemently agreed that Judas is dead and we need to move to more important items. However, one of my favorite national columnists, Jason Whitlock, has a real interesting and funny take on Judas.  To be frank, I am a little disappointed that I didn’t come up with this [...]

Seriously, buy this shirt NOW

Back in mid-July, when Judas was in the midst of flirting with the Queens, we told you about the Judas Favre t-shirts (a link to their site can be found in our blogroll on the right) we had discovered and how we thought you all should get one in order to make your true feelings [...]

So here's my idea…

I have plenty of thoughts on the Judas saga (will post them at a later time), but for now, wanted to throw an idea out:

What if, at Lambeau Field on Nov. 1, when the Vikings offense is announced (and for the love of God, they better announce the Vikings offense), there isn’t a sound in [...]

What is there left to say?

It has been about 36 hours since Judas landed in Saint Paul and headed to the Vikings’ headquarters to ink his signature on Hell’s guestbook.  I recently moved and had limited internet access until tonight, which almost has been a blessing in disguise because I have somewhat curbed Judas-overkill. Unfortunately, I have [...]

Breaking down the death of Judas

This time of day, this space is usually reserved for an edition of Training Camp stew.

Tuesday, however, was not like most days (don’t worry, the Stew will return later tonight).

Tuesday, Judas died.

Okay, okay – he didn’t die in any real sense. He’s still alive, probably sitting somewhere in Minneapolis pretending to be a simple, good [...]

Wow…Simply Wow

Well, he did it.

The son of a bitch did it.

If you haven’t heard by now, Judas is officially going to be a Viking. He jumped on owner Zygi Wilf’s private jet (he rides on an awful lot of private jets for a “simple country boy” doesn’t he?) this morning and is now at the Vikings’ [...]

Training camp stew – 8/17/09 edition

Here it is, your nightly serving of the most interesting bits of information from today’s training camp practice.

The Packers only had one practice today, but it was fairly eventful – too eventful, you might even say.

As always, this information comes courtesy of the fine folks at the Green Bay Press Gazette and the Milwaukee Journal [...]

Preseason game one vs. Cleveland: A smashing start

Saturday night, we began to see just what kind of team the Green Bay Packers might be this season.

There were a lot of signs that the Pack could be pretty damn good as they blanked the Cleveland Browns 17-0 at Lambeau Field.

Still, there were some areas that were cringe-worthy (for the first preseason game, anyways).

With [...]

Training camp stew – 8/13/09 edition

Here it is, your nightly serving of the most interesting bits of information from today’s training camp practice.

The Packers had two practices today and, with only two days to go until Saturday’s preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns, there’s quite a bit to get to.

As always, this information comes courtesy of the folks at the [...]
