I agree this is one good thing about the Packers. One good thing.

I have to call bullshit on this. You're thinking of baseball, where the Kansas City Royals will always be underdogs, so long as they exist. The Packers aren't any sort of underdog, any more than any other NFL franchise. They all have the same amount of money that they may spend on player salaries. As long as the people running the organization aren't retarded, they can make money.
In terms of media adoration, the Packers haven't been an underdog for about a dozen years, around the time Ron Wolf fleeced Jerry Glanville to land the golden boy.

I think this is the kind of thing people tell themselves to get through Wisconsin winters, when their team sucks, and they know they have just had two of the most heinous back-to-back drafts in NFL history.
Why not bring in a monkey to throw darts at a list of college seniors next time? He couldn't fuck up any worse.
