    Default The Packers keep making me hate them less!

    I wonder what other teams do to bond? I thought this was pretty cool. I doubt many other teams play a board game

    Well played, Packers. You have everyone in love with you now, but don't think I've forgotten! January 15, 1967, the first Super Bowl. You handed us our asses! Never again! Retribution is coming, Green Bay! Yes, yes. You keep one eye open.

    Real talk right now, that was some straight up bulltrout though. The Seahawks have no business being in the superbowl after that stinker of a game against an injured QB (granted, Aaron Rodgers injured is still better than 80% of the QB's in the league).

    If AR wasn't injured they would have won as the score would have been a much higher score discrepancy. *sigh*

    Nope. It's not going to work. Still hate the Packers.

    Catan's not all that nerdy any more, anyway. It's gone mainstream. If they'd played Lords of Waterdeep, or Legendary Encounters, or Europa Universalis the boardgame or something along those lines I'd give 'em a little credit. Maybe.

    No, probably not.

    Clay Matthews bumping his little buddy Nelson is soooooo cute.

    Still hate the Packers.

    don't get me wrong, I hate the damn Packers. But, they aren't trout talking cheating loud mouths like a few others teams I don't like. I do at least have respect for the Packers and their organization.

    I hope it is several times more grognardy than the already incredibly grognardy EU video games.

    Anyways, if we're talking about nerdy wargames then nothing can top Advanced Squad Leader.

    True enough. It's actually not so much the team as Mike McCarthy that I dislike. And perhaps this is only because I loved the other Mike, Mr. Holmgren.

    It is. The rulebook for EU is the War & Peace of the boardgame universe. 72 pages of superior grognardia.

    I can't get my nerdgame friends to play Advanced Squad Leader, so yeah, that's upper tier elite nerdgame territory.
