“BluMe” writes: “I know that when it’s ten degrees and I’ve been out there for awhile, I feel drunk even when I’m sober.” Judging from your comment, it must be freakin’ cold up there.

Wow, you stayed up that late in the morning to script that homer crap? Maybe the Pack IS as good as they looked last week, but I doubt it. Last week was the only big game they won all year and thank God they were at home and had two weeks to prepare for it. I don’t think the Giants will allow the quick throws you are talking about, otherwise it would be an awfully dumb gameplan. That’s how they got beat in September, so I think that at the least the Packers will have to find another way. I also think there will be a lot of balls in the air and on the ground, where they are not supposed to be. The temperature, (despite all of the analysts who say that wind will be the only factor, not cold) will play a huge part. I’m a season ticket holder and I know that when it’s ten degrees and I’ve been out there for awhile, I feel drunk even when I’m sober. I can’t imagine what it will be like.
When I was a child I was a Dallas fan but then I grew up. TRAITOR!!!

I’m a born and bred New Yorker (Yonkers) who has been a Packer fan beacuse of the guileless purchase of two random belt buckles about 30 years ago by my Irish immigrant mother who looked at nothing but the sale price. My brother is a Bengals fan. So as both a die-hard Packer fan and a New Yorker, all the charges against the NY media are accurate. That said, if it matters at all it is probably ultimately beneficial to the Pack. NY is buying the “hot team” bit without much regard for the mismatch of the actual players. When I have pointed out the likely impotency of the jints pass rush against the deep wr corps, extra protection and quick throws that the pack thrive on, I get mostly quizzical silence. The pack’s d-line is underappreciated by most, and completely unknown to the NY media. Corey Williams and Cullen Jenkins will be a revelation. They appreciate the sentimental value of the Favre angle, but seem completely oblivious to the fact that the best arm and guts the game as ever seen has also developed wisdom and patience. 37-17 GB. And I’ll save my Monday copy of the NYPost forever.

Now Steve, using Hamlet? You might want to slow down for our friends who support Big Blue. Perhaps quoting Blue’s Clues will work better…

Yeah, what Aaron says. And let me make the same observation with Don that applies to the G-men more generally. Me thinks thou doth protest too much.

Um, Don? This is Bedard’s first year on the beat. He covered the Dolphins for years before coming to the JS this year. Hardly what you’d call a homer. And as for this blog – it’s called PackerGeeks. Not ‘ObjectiveGeeks’. Nice try though. Good luck in life.

Bedard is “reasonable?”

He takes one game, played four months ago, and postulates “”And that’s exactly what the Giants try to do, WEEK IN AND WEEK OUT.”

The only confirmation for this “weekly” comment was a quote from Rodney Harrison, whose reputation is in the trash. Bedard didn’t talk to any player in the East division, whose teams all played the Giants twice and far more recently than Sept. 21. No stories in any East division papers about the Giants’ supposed “dirty” play, either. Think the Philly Inquirer wouldn’t love to have run a story like that, if it had any truth?

Bedard is a pom-pom waving homer with no journalistic sense or integrity. Period. And I suppose the same can be said for your blog.
