And so it goes...

Sooo the Packers lost in the post season in fine fashion. Defeating themselves more than the other team beating the. The Giants wanted it more, plain and simple. I think our team does better as the underdogs then as the top dog. Many teams do. It makes them more hungry. Plus Packers didn't bring their A-game to be sure , but still the season was a lot of fun.
Now though is the time that test true fans versus the bandwagon fans. I loved my Packers when they went 6-10 and love them now.  Many won't
OTHERS will say "Well Brett got them to 2 super Bowls back to back." Sure he did but then he lost horribly to Denver. Then how many post season games did we lost because Brett made a Bone headed play. DID people really forget about those last min interceptions on throws that never had to be made.
Its human nature for seeing the top dog fail. From the financially successfull to the celebrity that is successful, to the sports team that is successful. There is so much fascination for humans to watch more successful humans fail its no wonder we don't have more people striving to be better. If you are you will get hated and shunned and insulted. In this world it seems better to be mediocre than to be great.
Its really no wonder we are where we are as a species but back to football.
I am very happy with the Packers they way they performed 90% of the season. I have respect for the teams that play against the Packers. I wish the Giants well.
As for the Packers. They can make another run. In this Day and age the NFL and their free agency system makes it a miracle any teams can be successful for more than a couple years, Packers have had a very good run this decade and I hope for many more.   Meanwhile we have to just put up with the name calling and the Haters because they were happy to see a top dog fail. Yet when their team becomes top dog will we do the same insulting and nasty name calling.  I won't, unfortunately I cannot speak for my other Packer Fan friends.
People seem to foget that when all is said and done, its just a game. There will be others.
