45,000 kilometres, 28,000 miles. 162 days. 16 Games, 9 Stadiums. 1 family and the Green Bay Packers.

The story of a 15 year old dream being fulfilled despite all rational thinking. Of giving up what most wouldn’t to live the life you want to, not the one you happen to be leading. To meet new people in a new land that for some reason feels like home despite having never been there for longer than a few hours some 8 years ago. One football season to forget about everything else and see the world through Green and Gold eyes. From the sunny shores of Sydney Australia to the freezing depths of Green Bay Wisconsin to follow one of the most celebrated teams in sporting history. This is a once in a lifetime trip fuelled by the desire, the passion and the drive that only fans of the greatest team in American Football history could truly understand.

Week 8 vs Minnesota

Monday, November 02, 2009

So I’ve just spent the last hour or so watching all the video and reading up on all the blogs about the game of the year (2nd time around) that I didn’t get to see. I was secretly hoping that with the change of time slot we’d pick it up live down here but to no avail. Whilst you were all glued to your sets up there, us Packer fans down here had to be content with Philadelphia versus New York. Not that that game didn’t have the potential to be a great one but really, the whole country had been waiting for this game since mid August so to be quite frank, no other game really mattered did it? Heck, Philly and NY could have played out a 100-99 thriller and it wouldn’t have mattered a lick.
