The stadium is cool, but other than that he's 100% correct.
This city blows, I get out of here every weekend and head up to the cabin, and it gets harder to come back every damn time. Used to be more of a small town vibe when I was a kid so it wasn't as bad, but now it's the worst possible blend; none of the benefits of a big city but all the annoyances.
The nice part is you head 30-45 minutes in any direction and you can find pristine beauty. That's the only reason I stay. [Reply]

Teams can refuse to honor the contract, though. They cut players all the time. [Reply]

Yeah, like I said, I'm not a fan of the City of Green Bay. My point was the Stadium is a cool experience, and if you like NFL FB games, you should try and make a game. [Reply]

I think he definitely improved but he also has a pretty solid play caller and a really nice cast around him. He's right to take advantage. What if he comes back to earth this season or gets hurt? [Reply]
Love
Has all the leverage and both sides know it. He was among the best in the league the last 10 weeks of the season and had an incredible playoff debut in Dallas [Reply]

Similar experience during my 18 year sentence in Chicagoland. Our biggest supplier had season tickets right behind the visitors bench and he gave them to me each time the Chiefs played there during that time. (3)
They were gracious fans, especially after the Chiefs comeback in 2003. [Reply]
