Rams Week

Pretty much any calorie dense foods (like HFCS) should be avoided except on occasion. Processed foods (especially food at restaurants) are chemically engineered to be highly palatable and are loaded with sugar, fat and salt. The more you eat, the more you want. It's designed that way.

The best "diet" is the one you'll stick to...because at the end of the day, it's all calories in vs calories out. Low fat, Mediterranean, ketogenic, vegan, paleo, carnivore...it just doesn't matter what you do as long as you can consume the minimal amount of calories to keep you functioning.

Hats off to you, that is a monumental accomplishment.

Thank you Chongo. A lot of effort and discipline and sacrifice.

Has always amazed me that people fail to grasp that simple concept. I've maintained the same weight for the last 35 years and people ask me "how do I lose weight"....I always reply "don't eat so much".

My grandson and I met Leroy butler today at lambeau. What a wonderful human being. That made our weekend . The rest of the weekend is just gravy. Go packers.

Aaron Jones playing?  Initially I thought probably not with the bye next week but it’s a big game.   If he can go I say yes.

I’m sure he can go. GB docs are super reserved so I’d say it’s iffy at best.

#Packers OLB Rashan Gary (elbow) is expected to return to the lineup today against #Rams, per source.

#Packers RB Aaron Jones (knee) will be a game-time decision today against the #Rams, per source. Jones practiced all week and there’s some optimism he’ll play, but they'll work him out pregame to see how he feels before making the final call.

Packers need to catch the ball when Stafford throws it to them.

In the same breath, imagine trying to explain to guys like Vince Lombardi that you can't practice because your pinky toe hurts.  

Damn, this page has been pretty quiet since yesterday. Did something happen to dampen everyone's spirit?

A lot of those old guys brains were so scrambled because of that style that they could not understand those explanations.

This is better.

They could really use Gary today to influence Stafford's bad decision making.

Yet another game that will not be aired, in western Wisconsin, due to the vikings also playing at 3:25pm CST today. Love those NFL scedulers!

A little breezy this afternoon.

Green Bay, Wi.    Mostly sunny, with a high near 36. Northwest wind 10 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph.

Noted. Never thought I’d root for Michigan. I’d be happy to start a game thread next Saturday night if you’d like.

Enjoy, looks like a pretty good game.  I will be watching that one and the Packer game.

I'll save you the trouble and give you a final score here, give or take 10 points.

Meechigan 52 - Iowa 16.

I was pulling for the Badgers yesterday. I'd prefer they were the sacrificial lamb to the OSU/Mich winner. So has Tschmack lost his shit on Wisconsin like he does with the Packers any time things don't go perfectly?

What since you are an Iowa fan don't you check out the Badger side of X4>? 

Stanford has elbow injury. Will play anyway.

thank you Jesus

They said he's dealing with back pain and other shit too.

Nah, I spend about as much time there as I do in the Fedya TVIO forum.

I, mentally, wrote this game off as a loss. I felt that our defensive inability to stop the Vikings pass game and our injuries to key players would be predictable of this game. However, if Gary and Jones can play and the defensive backfield gets it’s mojo back then a win is possible.

Run the frickin’ ball!

Slower track. Queenies are built for Tupperware grass just like the Rams. Packer DB's outside of Stokes aren't the speediest bunch. This game will be slower which favors the good guys.

Ummm......I guess you haven't seen Savage run much?

You underestimate his power

I'd rather have him be able to catch a football!

Hearing Packers optimistic Aaron Jones will play today. Pre-game work will determine but chances encouraging.

Still think they'll wait until after the bye.

If he can help get a victory he has to play.

Health for the postseason run is more important than seeding.

Both are important if the seeding means a 1st round bye. But health is more important overall.

That said, if the medical staff clears Jones then he should play. Just make sure there's a healthy dose of #28 today. Keep Jones around 15 touches at the most. Then he gets 2 weeks to rest up.

Jesus fuck, is he wearing a kid's helmet?

I wrote this off as a loss, but if Gary is close to "normal," he could change things with the pressure he has been bringing. GB missed him last week; Cousins never got rattled like he does with pressure. Same with Stafford as he hears ghosts of running for his life in his days with Detroit.

Actually, the Packers seemed to blitz Kirk in the second half and he threw several to Packer defenders. Pack just didn’t capitalize.

Yes, but if Gary had been able to bring consistent pressure from the start, it probably would have rattled him more and the Pack doesn't have to play catch-up.

Gary would have changed the game for sure. They had so many plays where they were just a tenth of a second too late. Gary would have affected a number of positive plays for the Vikings.

The lack of neck pushes the helmet above his ears.  I only say this because I'm 85/90% sure he can't reach me from the grave.
