Well, looks like I'm jumpin' in with a bunch of youngin's. LOL. I've been a Packer fan since birth, 59 years ago. I had no choice, well I did but more about that will come.

The '95 season and '96 season especially were exciting for all of us, but for me they were also very humbling and sad. My father had passed away in early '95. He was my inspiration and I just wished he could have been there to see the Pack finally win another World Championship before he passed so I could have shown him how much it meant for me what he had given me as a son and Packer Fan.

I was very lucky, some would say blessed. My father played for the Packers for eight years in the 1930's and 1940's. Played in three World Championship games, won two of them. I grew up football, Packers. It really wasn't something I really understood because it was our life. I met a lot of the greats, not just Packers but players from all teams in my youth. My father played for Lambeau but in college he played against Lombardi and they were I would say "almost" friends. I went and sat in Lombardi's office with my dad when we would visit Green Bay, hang out in the locker room sometimes, sit on the sidelines during games, which sucked for watching a game. I didn't know what it would mean years later.

At one time I had hundreds of autographs of players from the '20's thru the 1970's and some later. I usually just gave them away to other people that never had a chance to get them and they really wanted them as they just didn't mean much to me at the time.

So, I would gladly exchange all of that if I could have watched that Super Bowl one last time with my dad.

GO PACK!!
