The Packer-Patriot Game, AKA the "grab your ankles" game

Well the game was terrible and I don't know what to say about it. I'm at a loss. My normally positive, longterm outlook hasn't changed because, well, that's the deal with a longterm outlook. Short term issues and small sample sizes don't really impact a longterm outlook. That being said, I'm a little tired of the "try hard for two games then take a game off" theme we've developed this year.

Is it game planning? Even in losses I've liked the offensive play calling of Mike III this year so I don't think that's it. Motivation? I don't know. The players seem like they care, they just also seem like they just woke up from a nap. This is the pros so I expect effort every week, and thanks to non-guaranteed contracts, that's what I usually get. But man, that was ugly.

I'm sorry I'm not my usual witty self today. I just can't seem to get going. Maybe the team's crappiness is starting to get to me. It's like a virus and all across the country there are other bloggers/siters with a weird cough today that we'll all try to dismiss. A week from now, after cross-country travel for Thanksgiving, we'll have afflicted the masses. Even non-Packer fans will suffer. Everyone with a soul will eventually fold under the pain of the sickness the Packers have infected us with, so all that will be left are Cowboys fans, as they clearly have no soul.

I just...I...ah...son of a bitch!

Sorry folks, MF Pack's brain just couldn't take it anymore. I'm J.L. Acme and I'll be finishing the column. I don't normally do this sort of thing so I don't really know what to do here...hmmm. This could suck.

I guess I'lL just try to go over everything Like MF would have wanted. I can't beLieve Rodgers is out for the Year. That's just not cooL. And what the heck is going on with the L's and Y's I'm tYping here? WhY are theY in caps? I'LL have to have mY keYboard checked after this post.

WeLL this is just Lame. I'm doing a terribLe job fiLLing in and there's something wrong with me now. Wait, it's not me, it's everYone eLse. I'm just so excited to be posting for once that I want to keep going. Plus, the onLY other person in the office is a guY named IngLe, and You don't want to see him trYing to post right? FrankLY I think I'd be doing better if BLogger wouLd figure out the issues with posting. Or maYbe it's the server, did You think of that? Who's getting served now? Huh? Huh? This keYboard can kiss me Young, unproven ass! What do You think of that? Gah! You guYs all suck, You're making me Look bad! Like Majikman couLd do better? Or CorneLL J? I've got no support!


I'm sure at this point everyone reading this hates JL Acme. In the past you could pretend that maybe I would retire and JL would take over and we'd have some youth and vigor on this site but that dream is now on the shelf. If only I could compare it to something a Packer fan would understand. Ah well.
