Chucklehead Cheeseheads

Oh, this is precious, this is grand, this is karma. Quick, do you know how many more games the mighty Packers played this season compared to the hapless Bears? One, and they proceeded to lose it at home before a full house of screaming cheeseheads, 13-10 to the visiting 49ers. The mighty—and unvaccinated—Aaron Rodgers led his team to a touchdown on the initial series. But after that, nothing other than a field goal. Ten points total for the mighty Rodgers and his high-octane offense. Hardy-har-har. Oh, but it was Packers’ weather, with a temperature of 14 degrees at gametime with a windchill factor of zero. That made it the fifth-coldest playoff game in the history of Lambeau Field. San Francisco’s Jimmy Garoppolo had never started an NFL game in under 40 degrees. That compared to the mighty Rodgers, who went into the game having started thirty-six times with the temperature 32 degrees or lower, going 28-8. Why, he was even 6-3 in the postseason when Jack Frost was nipping at mere mortals. Make that 6-4. And here’s the sweetest part. Ex-Bear Robbie Gould kicked the winning forty-five yard field goal with time expiring. This was Gould’s twentieth straight field goal without a miss in the playoffs. It must make the fans on the tundra so mad to know that a former player from the team their mighty quarterback owns did them in. They must feel like a bunch of chuckleheads wearing those stupid cheeseheads.
