Green Bay Packers – legacy continues
In 1919, the Green Bay Packers were founded by Earl “Curly” Lambeau. Today, the team plays at Lambeau field, a historic stadium which seats today 73,000. The Green Bay Packers won the first two Super Bowls ever (in 1966 and 1967), as well as a more recent one in 1995. Today, the Green Bay Packers play in the National Football Conference (NFC) North division, along with the Detroit Lions, Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings. The team is coached by Mike McCarthy, and has Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback. On defense, they are lead by linebackers A.J. Hawk and Aaron Kampman, and will open the 2009 at home against the Chicago Bears. The game which will be most anticipated will be on October 5th, when the Packers will travel to Minnesota to face their ex-quarterback, future hall of famer Brett Favre. Favre and the Vikings will travel to Green Bay on November 1st, which will be one of the most watched games of the year.
