Let’s get this community going! I am a fan of the New York Football Giants, and I’m hoping for another fun season now that Danny got some weapons.

    It’s the Green Bay Packers for me. Partially because it’s in the blood, partially because I like the fact that they’re not privately owned.

    Definitely not a fan of all the recent Rodgers drama though.

      I thought Jordan Love looked good in that one game he played in last season

        He does look good. His style fits our offense a lot better than any other 2nd string QB I can remember since Rodgers was behind Favre. I’m really hoping that translates to some success this year. Not thinking playoffs, but a winning season would be stellar. I’d settle for beating the Lions by more than a field goal or Hail Mary though 😂

          I could see GB making the playoffs. That NFC North seems wide open. Fields could take the next step and lead Chicago to the division title. The Lions added a lot of young talent and are already a young team on the rise. Green Bay could take the crown as I mentioned if Love is a good quarterback. Minnesota is good but potentially losing Cook, Cousins is another year older, but Jordan Addison paired with Jefferson could be a nasty, unguardable WR duo

      I recall reading somewhere that while “not privately owned” the people who own Packers “stock” don’t have any of the same rights as people who old stock in normal companies, e.g. they have no actually equity, the stocks don’t pay a dividend, and they can’t trade their stock with anyone else.

      So I guess it’s more of a quirk than anything else.

        That’s true. The share itself confers nothing more than a certificate, an invitation to the annual shareholder meeting, and the ability to vote on decisions presented be the board of directors. And the ability to brag to you family in, or from, Wisconsin that you’re part-owner of the Packers.
