It's quite simple, really: Green Bay is Titletown . . . period
After all that "Who's Now" unpleasantness of last summer, I hate to get on ESPN for this year's July dog days fluff series, "Titletown."
It would have been perfectly fine if it had been called something else. Anything else. "America's best sports city." "Sports Town USA." "ESPN City."
But Titletown? Why Titletown? Green Bay is Titletown, not any of the other finalists, including New York.
If any city other than Green Bay wins, the entire population is going to board busses and crash the security gates in Bristol.
Sigh. (WatchDog kudos to first reader to name the guy in the picture.)

Some guy who played for Notre Dame in 1916.
His first name was Earl, but he was better known by his nickname which had something to do with his hair.
There is a football stadium named after him in Wisconsin....somewhere north of Milwaukee.
Earl Babysheepboyfriend, or something like that.

Tell it to the judge.
Does Darren Lin (he hosted the Lawrence one) remind anyone of "Lloyd" from Entourage?
Buses, Neil. More than one bus = buses.
Busses are kisses.

.... and here's another little-known packer fact: lombardi couldn't stand the fact that the packers honored lambeau by naming old City Stadium after him. lombardi detested lambeau and was apparently irate that he was "hoodwinked" into posing for a picture of he and lambeau shaking hands that turned out to be the cover photo for the Packers' 1965 Yearbook.
