52-3

Hey, the Packers won, and he's not blogged about it yet.

Okay, yeah, that was remiss of me, but yesterday was such a huge sports day that I was watching it transfixed, and didn't want to stop to write a blog entry because...DAMN! Got to watch the 1pm football games, switch over to a baseball game in the 9th inning, and still got a full length baseball game!

So. Packers. They tore through the Saints like Katrina tore through the Superd--I'm sorry, I've been informed it's Too Soon for that joke. Yesterday was an example of a team that was just playing PISSED. No other way to explain that kind of whooping that includes two defensive touchdowns, and Favre showing why he's still Brett Favre, no matter how old he gets.

So, what's going to happen to that division? It's a total of 5-12. Calling it the NLW of football is actually an insult to the NLWest. Someone is going to Padre themselves into the playoffs...so why not the Packers? I think yesterday could provide them some momentum, and they'll have Green back for their next game, which is good, since their backup RB is now out for the season with a broken ankle. And that's the hell of it. The Packers do well, but lose another tool in the process. Still, in a division where 7-9 might win it, they seem to have as good of a shot as anyone. Especially with two games ahead against Daunte Culpepper. It's just too much of a tossup, but I really have a hard time believing that the Pack is out of it, even at 1-4. Because it is the North. And because he is Favre.
