Week 13 vs Panthers

G’day All,
Only a short post this week I’m sorry, it’s been a busy one!
So I haven’t seen a seconds worth of the game this week. Today (Monday) was such a beautiful day that we spent the day outside, in the sun and at the beach. By lunchtime we’d hit 95F so being outdoors was always on the cards. I did get a chance to follow the game on my phone before we went out though. Here’s a little of how it went. I woke up and checked the score, 21 all at half time. I started preparing the beach bag and checked again only a few minutes later, 28 all. Not bad i thought, still plenty of time to kick a field goal… Checked a little while later and sure enough, with only 90 seconds to go we were up 31 - 28, just as I had hoped.
Now this is where it gets difficult. Unable to see or hear anything i had to continually refresh the nfl.com page to see the shift in score as the clock wound down. Low and behold, as i checked it again only 5 or so minutes later we were down and the game was over. Like I said, I have no idea what happened and won’t get a chance to see it with my own eyes for a few days thanks to my hours this week and the fact that my connection is quite a slow one. Another close game gone by the wayside though - what a bummer. Then of course, to make matters worse, the Vikings won again. Is it just me or are we really pushing the rest of the season uphill from this point???
Maybe the Pack need a little Aussie help as the year winds down? We provided a little luck last year, perhaps a trip there for moral support this year might do the trick. Not likely I’ve gotta say but it is a fun thought. And on a light note to finish the post off, I thought I’d share with you something Ben asked me today. As we walked by a shop with Christmas decorations this morning, he asked “Daddy, now that Christmas is coming, when is it going to snow?”. How adorable is that? Poor kid doesn’t realise that this year he’ll be sweating like crazy as opposed to freezing his bottom off. There’s a good chance he’ll enjoy having his shirt off, playing cricket out the front and swimmimg in the pool though!
Take care,

Look, I do not think that he was messing with us. Sometimes things get in the way of your plans. I don’t check in often, but I do get notified when other people post. Cut him a break, it never cost us anything to check the site out...and I think that most of us enjoyed it while it was active. I thank Wayne for all of the hard work that he put into this thing and I wish Wayne, Kelly and the kids all the best. GO PACK!!!

I know he has a life other than this, but don’t you think he would at least say good-bye, that he won’t be on anymore?

Well the 2009 draft is over and I am shocked that the Packers gave the cheating Patriots a 2nd and two 3rd round draft picks. What are they not winning enough???

bob- Those “cheating” Patriots gave us another 1st round draft pick. And the Pack made a nice pick with Clay Matthews out of USC. Glass half-full, my friend!
