Actually, a Milwaukee radio station came up with that song parody. It was on a morning show, possibly Reitman and Mueller.

Perhaps, they did... I wrote it in 7th grade... I didn't live anywhere near Milwaukee. Ellsworth, WI.

Again, always trying to bash on me. I had no idea anyone ever wrote a song about them.

How do you know theirs came first?

Travis Jervey - 98

Jervey was a special teamer, not an RB. (Well, they may have tried to use him at RB, but it was a mistake.) He even went to the Pro Bowl in the ST spot one season.

I know about his ST abilities. I also know he was a very good RB - and that is what we are discussing here. Ben Wilson was a better RB than TJ.

Where was the bashing? It was a correction. Everytime I hear the name Eddie Lee Ivory I get that song in my head.

I wasn't in need of correction...at least about that song.

This just keeps getting better.

In discussing all these horrendous Packers RB's it made me think of the last time I ever expected any of them to be "great". I think Darrell Thompson had to be the last back coming in that I ever expected greatness from. That sure panned out.

In looking back over all the years, I'm most disappointed Brent Fullwood wasn't mentally ready for the NFL. I thought he was an amazing RB who just preferred the party life to the demands of the NFL. What a shame. Anyone remember what he did the first time he touched the pigskin as a Packer in the pre-season?

Hey Henry...How dare you bash, "The Cheese Curd Capitol" of Wisconsin. JAPF was from Baldwin one of our rival towns.

WAY OT: If anyone is looking for a good movie on DVD for the weekend... I recommend, "FLAWLESS" with Michael Caine...he was outstanding and the movie was smartly written.

I don't know about you but when I was growing up between Prescott and Ellsworth you didn't see a whole lot of Packers games on t.v., so I listened to it on the radio, radio that was from Milwaukee and Green Bay.

...and incorporating the baseline for "Louie Louie" into a catchy tune about Anthony Dilweg and Tiger Greene, obviously. I understand. Must've been quite a meating.

back to the RBs

comments from Herron and Bennett

" Herron was asked if he still saw the job as his.

"Yep, I do," he said. "You have to think that way. That's the competition part of this game."

Packer running back coach Edgar Bennett wouldn't go that far.

"When you look at the competition, you've got a number of different guys that can step in there and play that role for us," Bennett said. "I think when we do go into training camp and the competition gets going, all of those guys are going to make each other better. I think that's all going to make our team better and that process, at some point, the cream will rise to the top."

We kicked out some Chester Marcol jams.

Early-to-mid-80's meating must've meant you went with some Asia and "Heat of the Moment." Man, I wish I coulda been there.

Between Prescott and Ellsworth? Beldenville? I wonder if we know each other...Henry?

As a youth I was able to pull in Channel 8 from our upstairs TV. It was snowy but I could usually get it. A lot of the games were on WCCO. If they were on NBC I was great with WEAU. Way back in the early 80's I didn't know the Packers were on the radio. Later, I caught them on WEVR "The voice in the friendly valley, River Falls, Hudson, with studios also in Ellsworth"

Now, that is incredibly humorous! I was doing beat box back then. In my rendition, I called Tiger by his real name...GEORGE.

Big River area.

That's the one. Makes me want to bust into the "Copper Kettle" commercial just thinking about it. We were just out of range of Eau Claire stations and WEVR was the only other option if the game wasn't on in the Twin Cities market.

Reappears? From when? Last off-season?

How would you like me to handle things, Artist?
