Hope everyone had a good Fathers' Day weekend. I apologize for the lack of weekend updates. Has some family down here.

Apparently, many of our kids and significant others went shopping at the Packer Pro shop, as both ESPN and the official Packers website are reporting that profits may be down a little,, but We're still doing better than average. That's good to hear, especially with the collective bargaining negotiations looming in the not-to-distant future.

News for the season is that when Tampa Bay comes to town in week 9, they'll be sporting their old school uni's. That's right, sounds like the Orange will be making a return to Lambeau. Anyone else know that the guy on those old helmets was called "Bucco Bruce"? All according to the pewter report. Nice name guys.

The sad news, Since I'm in Arkansas and can't access Twitter from work, I won't have a lot of updates throughout the day for and sessions today. But here's the schedule, according to Greg Bedard:

Monday, June 22

10:15 a.m. - Practice on Clarke Hinkle Field (open to public weather permitting)

3 p.m. - Practice on Clarke Hinkle Field (open to public weather permitting)

Tuesday, June 23

10:15 a.m. - Practice on Clarke Hinkle Field (open to public weather permitting)

3 p.m. - - Practice on Clarke Hinkle Field (open to public weather permitting)

Wednesday, June 24

10:15 a.m. - Practice on Clarke Hinkle Field (open to public weather permitting)

As is usual, people are expecting Tuesday's practice to turn into some sort of team building event. Wonder what Coach McCarthy has instore for them this year?

The official Packers site is running another one in the, "Game I'll never forget" series. This one features Brandon Underwood.

That's all for now. I'll check back with any updates I receive. Take care!

About Dan Haddinger

I am a Wisconsin guy, transplanted into AR. I have lived among the enemy for 10 years (in MN) and have gotten a certain amount of humor and insight on how other teams see the Pack and how we see them. I am a writer by trade, a family man by choice, and a Packer fan by birth.
