The history of the Green Bay Packers stock is interesting to me.
"Based on the original 'Articles of Incorporation for the (then) Green Bay Football Corporation' put into place in 1923, if the Packers franchise was sold, after the payment of all expenses, any remaining funds would go to the Sullivan-Wallen Post of the American Legion in order to build "a proper soldier's memorial." This stipulation was enacted to ensure that the club remained in Green Bay and that there could never be any financial enhancement for the shareholder. The beneficiary was changed from the Sullivan-Wallen Post to the Green Bay Packers Foundation on the basis of a shareholder vote at the November 1997 meeting."Mandroid2.0 from Alameda CA wrote:I guess, in that Brown County pays for the the new stadium well after they should with their increased sales tax [...], we are a collective involved in the Packers business. So "we" are supposedly a "team." The Pack is important to our economy, right?
Given your extreme distaste for taxpayer contributions to sports franchises, it makes perfect sense that you would move to Alameda.

I am a shareholder (so is my father as we just bought each other stock one year for X-mas) I never/very rarely refer to the Packers as "we" or "us".

Brett will be looking slick in the snowstorm on the cover of the new Sports Illustrated Wed. Buy a copy for your grandkids.

Sure Brett has a leather jacket. They play the Ramones over Lambeau Field during the games.

Goddammit i want to watch this game something fierce but i'm in Buenos Aires and Fox does not transmit their sporting events down here. I get the AFC, but not the NFC games.
Anyone know a way around this with the use of a Macintosh computer?
