Packer's PA guy didn't seem to thrilled about the hurried moment of silence for Ditka.

Green Bay sucks.

Everyone thinks so.

"Everyone" at Wrigley on Sep 30 during a Cubs Wild-Card loss? San Diego sucks, San Diego sucks . . .

Uhhh, September 30, 2025. Cub victory game 1 of the Wild Card round.

I was there.

I don't understand how the Bears can be so flat against an average Packers team.

Uhhh, I assumed that you were posting about "Everyone" thinking "Green Bay sucks" this year. I thought the fans seemed overly cheerful.

Were you leading the chant?

I'm 1-0 after the Buccs > Cowboys

TV here:

9:30 AM NFL Net
Go Eagles > Jaguars (-7.5 )

... The Eagles (2-2) will be without star running back Saquon Barkley, receiver DeVonta Smith, pass rusher Jonathan Greenard and three starting offensive linemen when they make the trip across the pond to play the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium....

Eagles don't score any 2nd half points until a potential game-winning 48 yard field goal with 8 seconds left. Then, their kick coverage suck and the Jags have 1 second to kick a 57 yard field goal, 17-19

I must have missed this last year, TIL:

... In July 2024, the NFL announced a partnership with Sony to use the company's Hawk-Eye computer vision technology to replace the chain crew. Like Hawk-Eye systems used in other sports, multiple camera views would track the ball from different angles in relation to the field. The NFL tested the system during selected 2024 preseason games. On April 1, 2025, the NFL announced that it will use Hawk-Eye to determine whether teams have made first downs for the 2025 season. Six 8k cameras will be placed at every NFL stadium and at international stadiums hosting NFL games. The NFL claims this will save up to 40 seconds from using the traditional method with the chain crew, who will remain on the field in a secondary capacity.

I wondered what had happened to the ''chain gang".
