I'd like to publicly thank the Cardinals for beating the Seahawks in Seattle.
I was sick & tired of hearing the media trot out the meme "Seahawks haven't lost since Dec. 2011!!"
Talk about a "record" with an asterisk, my god. I tweeted as much to Andrew Siciliano & Rachel Nichols too
Thank you Cardinals for finally making the league "officially" recognize a loss in Seattle.

And this is another reason "WHY" I want the Packers to make the playoffs.
With Rodgers, they are obviously a MUCH, MUCH better team....and capable of beating anyone. With a home game AND Rodgers, they run a decent shot of beating the Saints or Carolina or San Fran. And that would set up a round 2 game at Seattle (most likely). Seattle is very good, especially at home. But they're not infallible. And beating them AGAIN at their place would be so sweet.
Once in the playoffs, anything can happen!!
The Seahawks are going to screw this all up somehow, and if the Packers were the team to bounce them from the playoffs, oh, how happy I'd be. It would be another Christmas present!
The football gods would make me overjoyed for the PACKERS to get a game there....then whip their butts.
I've never heard the 12th Mensch so quiet.
They go into Seattle, Palmer throw's 4 INT and they STILL win? Man, must be nice to have a defense that can keep you in a game
Awesome game!
NFLFU fix. The whole weekend of games were ...

This.
Good for Arizona, but the Packers beat them there last year.

You obviously don't know what "mensch" means.
Are you using the Yiddish or Urban Dictionary meaning Henry?
I'm a Yid at heart.
Seems the Cards have done us a favor or two over the years...
Believe me, you are welcome, that was a great defensive showing.
I thought the zebras were going to steal it from us a few times, especially at the end. I even told my wife about the Pack getting jobbed in Seattle last year.
Did I mention I love our new coaching staff!
You gotta defensive assistant looking for a promotion?
Boris: You have no idea how happy it made me! This town is full of bandwagon jumpers and now the Seasucks are more popular than Elvis. My wife was in the hospital for week covering the period of time of the Cardinals game and it seemed like every staff member wanted to remind me hat GB didn't win that game and that officiating was part of the game. Of course the nurses station was so quiet you could of heard a mouse fart by the end of the game! Totally loved it

That's it, Hank...set the goy straight.
so the Cardinals can miss the playoffs at 11-5? has that happened before?
and we can sneak in with 8 wins....
I thought for sure that the New England Cheatriots missed the playoffs one year with an 11-5 record....I thought it was the year Rex Ryan took the Jets to the AFC Championship.
I'll have to GOOGLE it and get back to you.

You are correct.
2008 New England Cheatriots.
The year Brent played a horrible last game with the Jets. IF he won, the Jets would've made the playoffs...but he threw that last pick with a bad throw...the Dolphins won the AFC EAST and New England sat home with a 11-5 record.

BTW....Brady was out that year with a broken vajayjay...and Matt Casell led them to four straight wins to end the season as the Jets folded and Miami won the East.
They were the FIRST team to go 11-5 and miss the playoffs....sadly, the same could be done this year.
p.s. even though I'm a diehard Packer fan since I was born....as a kid growing up in the 1960's....I had always liked the Cardinals uniforms...so, I rooted for them except when they played the Packers...they didn't win much...but they were fun to watch: Charley Johnson (Jim Hart-backup), Jackie Smith, Johnny Roland, Jim Bakken (former Badger); Larry Wilson....I"m sure I'm missing someone...
I still root for them....EXCEPT...when the play the Packers or if the team they are playing needs to win to help the Packers....
Don't forget Conrad Doebler!
Terry Metcalfe. Mel Gray. Jim Otis.
The Don Coryell Cardiac Cardinals!
They were a fun team.

Freddie Joe Nunn tackling Don Majkowski and tearing his rotator cuff.
well now guys...I was just referring to the Cardinals of the 1960's....but...yes, they had quite a few characters on their roster in the 1970's....Doh! Dobler had to be one of the meanest SOB's playing then...
but, God Bless Don Coryell for bringing them up a notch, too. I still root for the Cardinals today...but...never against the Packers. It also helps that the Cardinals are in the same division as the CheatHawks and Whiners and even the Rams now with that dick Jeff Fishhead as coach.
Don't forget Clyde "the glide" Duncan - fyi, a Cardinal bust of Mandrich (spell?) proportions. 
I would also like to thank all three of our NFC North opponents for allowing us a shot at the division title with a 7-7-1 record. If it is truly more blessed to give than to receive, then there is a lot of rejoicing in Minnesota, Detroit, and Chicago right now. But in GB there is more rejoicing.
It's been said many times; (to paraphrase)
"History is written by those who win."
Gebins to the Cardinals.
I bet the need for retribution, and to correct those history books, still remains.
Glad you like the support Red! Your boys can come up to Lambeau next year for the NFC Championship game!

Phoenix has much nicer weather during playoff time. 
Don't you guys have hockey games at half time?
