My wife told me that last night! Sad!
Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Dude, with a member named Lightfoot here I don't think that's appropriate. Mike probably is too nice to say anything but geeze man.

Agreed with you guys... may wanna clarify that thread title a bit, because I thought it was referring to the member the second I saw it. 😬

Long live Lightfoot! Here, Here...! I was a huge fan. However, Lightfoot is a carryover from my CB radio days. The title of the thread was pause for reflection though!

Rumors of your demise have been greatly exaggerated.

I thought the same as all of the above comments. Glad Mike yer still with us. Was a time stopping still moment. Too bad about G Lightfoot but being honest he was not one of my favorite's from back in the day. Just didn't like the tone of his voice. Did like the Edmund Fitz song though.
