There’s an old saying that “history ain’t pretty,” and today we’re going to prove that in a big way. Most fans will question why we’d post the December 7, 1980 massacre of the Packers by their arch nemesis — the Chicago Bears. Yep, that’s right... this is the 61-7 loss that Green Bay fans should want to forget as much as Super Bowl XXXII. But we’re presenting it as a historical document of an earlier time in Packers’ history — a time that makes you appreciate everything that’s happened since 1992 that much more. And for those of you who are young fans whose only knowledge is success in Green Bay, this is what the rest of us had to go through year after year.
NOTE: Several readers wrote us to ask about how to get the 2011-2012 Green Bay Packers Annual Report. When we first got our stock in 1997, the proxy came for the meeting and we wrote to the company who managed the stock at that time and told them to put us on the permanent list for receiving the printed annual report. Since then, we’ve received one each year just prior to the Shareholders’ meeting. We suggest that shareholders wanting one should contact the following:
Wells Fargo Shareowner Services: 800-891-2981, Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., CDT.
And speaking of the shareholders’ meeting, here is a video clip of Packers’ president Mark Murphy talking about the team’s performance in the NFL’s financial arena in the past year.
Packers QB Aaron Rodgers took time away from the links at a celebrity golf tournament to talk about his golf game, training camp, and how Drew Brees' new contract might impact A-Rod's next deal.
