Talk About Desparation

Green Bay is in some serious bad shape this season. We're tied for the basement of the NFL with the Houston Texans. A 1-7 start is well into Lindy Infante-Don Majkowski territory. Even if we run the table, we're still likely to wind up needing some help to hope for a wild card spot at this point. And yes, if that highly unlikely turn of events is going to come to pass, we need help, more than what we got against Pittsburgh this Sunday.

But this can't possibly be the answer. At least, I hope it isn't. (Even if his apology is sincere, which somehow I doubt.) Now, if we're going to do it, we've got to do it soon. Before Andy Reid makes the guy sit in street clothes while our record plunges to 1-11. But what we really need is a running back who can also catch. Hmm... I wonder if Brian Westbrook or Steven Jackson could be motivated to mouth off like Mr. Sharpie. Nah. They're too smart for that, and their job is to get tackled for a living.

I know this is not the appropriate place, but I can't find a working email for you to tell you the results from yesterday's election...can you email me?

Yes, the e-mail server back in California has been down for nearly a week now. It's a huge PITA.
