Backing the Pack: Green Bay Shows Its Pride

If you caught our segment on "Kettle of Fish," the New York City haven for displaced Green Bay Packers fans, you have an idea of how serious these folks are. But to get the full picture of Cheesehead dedication, you need to see Packer fans in their natural element.

Check out this slideshow, accompanied by the music of Green Bay fan Eddy J Lemberger.

I heard BPP's interview this morning with the travel writer on the sad state of travel writing. It made me realize how valuable Mike Pesca is. His questions were analytical and intelligent. His comments were high class and appropriate. I like this guy Pesca. He balances nicely with intellectually heavyweight Alison Stewart. Did you note his use of "debaucherous?" Hire this guy full time!

Couldn't have said it better myself. Good luck Mike.

Ooooookay, Mike Pesca needs to tone it down a notch. He's clever, sure, but he's a little too proud of his cleverness for his own good. And he's loud! He's too loud for the BPP, and that's saying something.

I'm glad other people like him - right now, he's coming off to my ears as brash and loud and cocky. And only Luke Burbank can pull that off and make it look good. If Mike wasn't trying so doggone hard to be edgy or hip or ... something, he might actually be more likable in this role.
