Here ya Go Midnight-I wish your Dad could have seen this
John Madden was in New England to announce a football game one weekend when he noticed a special telephone near the Patriots' bench. He asked QB Brady what it was used for and was told it was a hotline to God. John asked if he could use it. Brady replied, "Sure, but it will cost you $200." John scratched his head, then thought, what the heck, I could use some help picking games. He pulled out his wallet and paid $200. John's picks were perfect that week. The next week, John was in Indianapolis when he noticed that same kind of phone on the Colts" bench. He asked what the telephone was for and Manning told him, "It's a hotline to God. If you want to use it, it will cost you $500." Recalling the previous week, John pulled out his wallet and made the call. John's picks were perfect again that week. Last weekend, John was in Green Bay , when he noticed the same kind of telephone by the Packers' bench. He asked Brett Favre, "Is that the hotline to God?" Favre Said, "Yes, and if you want to use it, it will cost you 50 cents." John looked incredulously at Favre and said, "Wait a second, I just paid $200 in New England and $500 in Indianapolis to use the same phone to God! Why do the Packers only charge 50 cents?" Favre replied, "Because in Green Bay , it's a local call."

Yeah, they are playing on Thursday night. :evil: Oh well. I will listen to Brad Sham, on the Dallas Cowboys Radio Network on Sirius.
Yeah, I am excited about the game. It should be good. It's either gonna be a high scoring game, or a defensive game. :shock: Might be a bunch of punts. :P

Might be, Yoopr. Could be playing for the NFC championship game.
Would that be in Lambeau? In January? :shock: :?

Only play at Lambeau if we win Homefield advantage and that's beating Dallas Thursday which I think is kinda doubtful with our key injuries.
No excuses but I'd much rather see us get healthy-let the guys get healthy(If possible) not forcing them to play thursday unless they're 100%-take the loss and be healthy(Hopefully) to play em again for the NFC Title(unless something strange happens). I'd LOVE for teams to come to Lambeau in January though

Whoever wins this game will have a 2 game lead (inside track) on homefield advantage through the playoffs.
Can't see the Cowboys imploding at all. They are simply playing too well on all fronts and are one of the healthiest teams out there. The way the Cowboys are playing, I can see them running off the next 5 to finish 15-1. They are certainly capable of winning out, the Pack being their toughest game. GOing to have to go see the game somewhere else, though, since it's on the bloody NFL network. Jerry Jones has been railing on that all week. Kind of funny. :lol:

Jerry Jones is a Dick-Fulfilling his non-athletic prowess so he wants everybody to see him on the SIDELINES(where he doesn't belong).
Green Bay is showing it on Local TV Station which proves what a great football town it is-They paid(I'm assuming) some major Dollars so people can see their team.If Small town Green Bay can fork up the Dollars to get the rights to broadcast the game why can't that Jerk throw some of his Millions into it so Dallas fans can see their team? :roll:

Geez, Yoop, hate much? :roll: The NFL network is a craphole and Jones is railing on it because they won't cut a deal with cable providers. He has always had a beef with the NFL Network.
Anyway, I heard the same thing about Dallas, that a Dallas network was showing the game. No idea what the skinny is on it, though. But what about fans that don't live in the area? Whether I was a Green Bay fan or a Dallas fan, I couldn't see it living here. By the way, what channel up there is showing it?
