What I have not heard anyone mentioned is that the Packers played the most amount of games a team can play in a season and NEVER were behind by more then 7 points. There might have been better Packer teams in history (1996 they were dominating) but never to be behind? WOW.
The worst Super Bowl experience had to be Christina Aguilera - OOPS Geez - "What so proudly we watched at the twilight's last reaming." was CLOSE!! Her Wikipedia page was updated to include details of her prime-time error within minutes!
Second worst was Jerry Jones for many reasons. OH - he will make a lot of money charging $17 for a Margarita and $25 for a Hamburger, but having seats taken away with angry fans that had paid $900 a ticket, people getting critically injured from ice falling from the roof and HIS team barely missing the playoffs by 6 games - not a great time. Plus that whole 1200 seat debacle where he was SO trying to break a record in attendance he did not get the final seating OK from the fire marshal. SORRY!
Then there is his wife who talked about all the artwork in the Stadium and they reason they wanted to have world class art was because normal people are afraid to go into museums! Basically her words!
As for next year - I don't know about contracts but I feel Nick Barnett will go as his style of play does not fit the 3-4. Middle linebackers in a 3-4 are big run stoppers (like Brian Urlacher) but really - anything Ted Thompson does is fine with me!
I LOVE how McCarthy told Rogers, "Play Smart so I can keep my foot on the peddle". Plus the fact that he had all players sized for Super Bowl Rings Saturday Night! BALLS!!!! I was not a huge fan of McCarthy! I stand corrected!
I loved how Rogers said last night "And we reload next year". 2nd youngest team in the NFL AND a Superbowl!! SWEET - and we WILL have a season next year!! WORD!

A few photos from the Blizzard
This happened to me once - I was a cook at a truck stop on the interstate and we were stranded for 24 hours in a blizzard, no one could get in or out. I had a Dodge Dart Convertible in which MY BUDDY Elweed had tossed his suitcase through the brittle back plastic window!
After 24 hours I could FINALLY stop cooking and go home - I get to my car and it basically looked like the above car. I had to shovel the snow OUT of my car before I could go home! That was a cold ride home!
A new way to park that uses less space.
Have a great Monday

Congratulations to the Green Bay Packers on winning Super Bowl XLV, but I think the game will be remembered for everything that went wrong off the field. Horrible weather (even though the game was indoors), overcrowding, and Christina Aguilera'a lackluster performance of the national anthem made the event less than perfect.
