The pricks are on the outside of the porcupine.
BTW: your video just proves how ignorant Packer fans are. "How could you ever love a team with Jim McMahon?" You know, he won a super bowl with the packers in 96...
He also won his first super bowl with the Bears and wore a Bears jersey when the Packers went to visit the president after their win in 1996.
BTW: Packers fans aren't ignorant, we're passionate. If you win a super bowl with the Packers we expect you to wear the team colors when you visit the president.
On the train home after the loss. Packers held on with some help from the refs and Bears moronic play calls at the end...
Seriously, call a timeout as your own play is running - that didn't work so well last time. And then... end around on 3rd & 2!? WTF! What happened to run up the middle.
Oh well, good luck in the Super Bowl. We'll see you again next year.

No, the Packers looked tired and vulnerable in the second half, as if playing four weeks of must-win football had finally taken it's toll on them. The Packers offense disappeared in the second half, and their defense allowed a 3rd string QB to score two TDs on them. If it hadn't been for a couple of moronic play calls and some help from the zebras, that game was headed to overtime. But they've got a week off now, so should be fresh for the big game.

B.J. Raji, though they definitely had more success up the middle than on the outside.
Personally, I though the biggest mistake was leaving the no-huddle offense after the last touchdown. Obviously you want to take time off the clock, but the defense had been playing well.
I also question the decision to run a stop route on the final Bears play of the game. In almost all cases a high crossing route is paired with a shorter one, as it forces any player in the higher coverage position to hesitate before committing, which is ultimately what prevents players from doing what Shields did.
Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.
That ended up being a better game then I thought it was going to be.

So dang close.
Rodgers wears 12 cause he's 3 times better than Favre.
My uncle came down from Wisconsin with a Favre jersey over Christams break and I told him to write "x3" next to the 4. He said "Why?" and I told him that same exact line.
As a Steelers fan, I LOVE that they're installed as the underdog. For whatever reason, under Cowher and Tomlin they've often responded better as a underdog than as a prohibitive favorite in the playoffs. I personally think the whole "chip on the shoulder" thing is kinda ridiculous (who needs extra motivation for a SB?), but for whatever reason, the Steelers tend to respond to that stuff (as have the Pats, historically).
And a dog despite vastly more SB experience? Love it. We've seen plenty of good teams wilt under the pressure of a SB. Not saying the Packers will, just that no one knows how they're going to respond, especially if the Steelers land the first couple blows.
Better hope roethisberger doesn't rape you in the bathroom like last time.
And whilst you're pointing and shouting at the boogeyman in the corner, you're missing the burglar coming in through the window.
Well, Duh! Because they had a giant Mining ship. If you had a giant mining ship you would drill holes in everything too, before you'd destory it with a black hole

My dad is a rabid Packers fan and my mom is a minor (very minor, but she grew up in Denver) Broncos fan. Needless to say, that was not a fun Superbowl.

One play I didn't understand from the Steelers/Jets..... I know LT is an awesome back with some decent power.... but WHY? Why try to run up the middle on a short and goal against the Steelers? That is just asking to get stuffed. The better play would have been a fake up the middle and bootleg for the corner.
