No.  The poll won’t be here.  Why?

I don’t really know.  Cuz I feel like doing it in those Pages.  To the right of my Post, you should see the link.  It’ll be under this Poll name, named “Week 1″.

That’s where you’ll find it.

I’m just using this for tags.

That’s about it.

Brett’s a Jet.

You know what that means?

I’m a Jets fan now.

Ever since the infamous “itch” was reported, Thompson and McCarthy had no clue.  They said “Rodgers is our quarterback”, and “Brett can be a backup.”  And ever since the itch, I’ve wanted Thompson and McCarthy run out of the state of Wisconsin.

I realize that you spent your entire offseason on the premise that Rodgers was the starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers.  I also realize that you made irreversible decisions because of that.  But this is the NFL.

You’re supposed to make changes on the fly.  Brett does it all the time.  Remember that flip as he was falling?  I don’t think that was the playcall in the huddle.  Thompson should’ve welcomed back Brett with open arms, put Rodgers back at good ‘ol #2, and proceeded to remain in the NFL’s elite.

A former local sports radio host said on the air in a guest appearance that the Packers did the right thing, taking “two steps back in order to take three steps forward.”  That makes sense, if you are a rebuilding team.

This wasn’t that team.  They came off the NFC Championship.  I’m no genius, but isn’t that like REALLY close to the Super Bowl?  How can the be rebuilding?

I said it before: the NFL is the NOW Football League.  Ted Thompson doesn’t care.  He’d rather risk his job on an unproven, injury-prone 4th-year player who has never started a game in the NFL.  I’d like to see them run too, because no defense will only have seven men in the box.  It’s gonna be an 8-man front until Aaron proves himself.  And as a lifetime Packer fan, and 6-year Patriots fan (Yes, I know, but I’ve stuck with them, haven’t I?), and a converted Jets fan, I see the Packers fail to make the playoffs.

Minnesota wins the division, and the Giants/Eagles/Cowboys have the Quarterbacks to win.  That leaves Green Bay on the outside looking in.

Now, I hope that I’m way off.  I hope the Packers do make the playoffs and have a huge run.  But Green Bay doesn’t deserve it.  Not after the way they only looked after themselves.

If it wasn’t for Brett Favre, we’d be the Lions.  The perennial loser.  But Brett changed that.  We won.  A lot.  160 times, in fact.  That’s 10.7 wins a season.  That’s a lot.

Ted Thompson has turned this organization from the Green Bay Packers into the Ted Thompson Packers.  Let’s put a “T” on that helmet, why don’t we?  You can’t tell me that Ted isn’t putting a stranglehold on this team.

Next offseason, Driver will be gone.  So will Harris.  And KGB.  Maybe even Barnett.  Anything that smells of Ron Wolf and Mike Sherman.  Gone.  And where will we be?

Jets fans, of course.

I’ll admit, it’s catchier than “Go Pack Go.”

No.  It’s not what your thinking.  And if what I’m thinking what you’re thinking is in fact what you’re thinking, then I feel obliged to tell you.  No, Harry Potter is not Latino.

But seriously.  I have a knack for knacking (?) things.  Namely, fantasy/pick’em sports.

And I’ve been thinking.

How about a few down in this neck of the woods?

Here’s the thought.

We run a few games, provided we get people to play the games.  (P.S. If you’re drunk right now, that’s where I single you out)  We then brag about it forever, mocking the losers.  And by mocking, I mean constantly reminding them even when women’s beach volleyball is the main topic of discussion.  Or women’s tennis.  Or Michelle Wie.  Or any combination thereof.  Like Michelle Wie playing tennis on the beach.

That’s the main thing I’m aiming at here.

So, here’s the deal.

I hope to set up:
-Fantasy Football League
-NFL Pick’em
-NCAAFB Pick’em
-Voters for THE College Football Poll©, Presented by Coke Zero© (See Below)
-Voters for THE Football Poll©, Presented by Powerade© (See Below)

If you want to do it, leave a comment.  Give me your e-mail address and which ones you would like to join.  Please plead other people to join as none will happen without at least 8 people.  Moving on…

I’m not completely sure how THE College Football Poll©’s formula is gonna shape out.  What I do know is that it’s consisting of the AP Poll, the Coaches Poll, the Harris Poll, an unbiased point system.  I hope to add the 5th element: us.  As extremely biased, relatively uninformed everyday people (I’m not trying to offend anyone.  I mean, I’m NOT Jerry Springer for goodness sake), we have to power to turn this into something that would make this stand out from the rest.  It’s simple.  You give me your Top 25 Every Sunday or really late Saturday (so I can get it out Sunday night)  We do it until the final Poll comes out sometime after the National Championship Game.

Same thing with THE Football Poll©.  Instead, it’ll be the ESPN/FOXSports/Sportsline Power Rankings in the place of the 3 Polls.  That, and you’ll be doing all 32 Teams.  Super simple.  Moving on…

I really did think about 3 different posts for that.  But people might read only one.  This way, I get them all to read everything.  Regardless, HOW IS WISCONSIN 12TH IN THE COACHES PRESEASON POLL?  I mean, sure, they’re Top 3 Big Ten, superstar tailback, lots of returning starters, blah, blah, blah.  I never thought they’d be this high this year yet (Last year was different).  I’m flabbergasted.  Now THERE’S a word that should be used more often.  Oh well.  Then I remembered that they hate Wisconsin in Basketball.  Ok.  Yeah.  I forgot about that.

If you just read all that, I applaud you.  If you read it all sober, I give you the Nobel Prize.  If you read it all sober and didn’t want to kill yourself, just name yourself self-appointed supreme ruler of all of Antartica, Austrailia, Africa, Asia, and the southern half of the eastern half of the more Mexican half of the Spanish side of the European-dominated half of my half of Guatemala.  Oh.  and have a pleasant day.
