Packerland (Green Bay and the rest of the dairy state) is looking for ways to greet Brett Favre when the Vikings come to Lambeau Field on November 1 to take on the Packers.

Why can’t parents just keep their mouths shut and let the coaches coach? It was all over the laps the coach made the man’s son run for being late for football practice.
Are you one of those parent’s walking the sidelines trying to capture an image of your son’s football game? Or, maybe your sibling is playing ball. Canon is sponsoring a photo contest for amateur photographers who enjoy shooting football games.

In the wake of the recent attacks in Mont Vernon, some area residents are purchasing guns for protection. I’m not against owning firearms for hunting or protection, but be smart about storing them and educating your children about protecting themselves.
Growing up a Viking fan, I wasn’t sure who to cheer for during last night’s Monday night football game between and Packers and Vikings. Check out this video from the Associated Press web site of Packer fans smashing a car to “honor” Vikings quarterback and former cheddarhead Brett Favre.
Can you imagine a town in the United States with no baseball, soccer or football fields? No volleyball, basketball, hockey, or softball teams for students to play on. That seems sad to me, but it is reality for students in Germany.
