Justin Fields on playing in Green Bay this week:
“Their fans are gonna be loud because there’s not much to do in Green Bay except watch football.”
The Art Garage would like a word. It’s a not-for-profit arts gallery located in downtown Green Bay. It’s housed in a 100-year-old former canning factory.
The Art Garage is a not-for-profit arts gallery located in downtown Green Bay. It’s housed in a 100-year-old former canning factory.
There’s also the The Automotive Gallery which shares the history and art of automobiles.
The cars on display range from an ultra-rare 113-year-old Cadillac Model T Touring Car to the space-age 2020 Ford GT Supercar.
With cars that rare, security must be pretty tight. NFL players could learn a thing or two about car security.
CJ Gardner-Johnson, for example, had his car stolen last year in Philly.
“I know exactly who stole my shit, don’t worry we got y’all on camera. That’s how y’all get down in Philly.. after a win?”
Kenny Pickett had his car stolen during a radio interview
In 2021, Atlanta K Younghoe Koo’s Grand Cherokee Jeep was stolen, but he was most concerned about a return of his cleats.
On the flip side, Vikings Long Snapper, Mike Morris, got arrested for accidentally stealing a car.
Morris borrowed his Moms car and when leaving the store, his key worked for a different but similar vehicle.
"At this point it hits me: I have ripped off somebody's van. I am a crook. I am done.'…I look behind me and there in a snowbank, are five cops with guns drawn and they are pointing those guns at me."
Morris had an interesting career. Undrafted out of Northeast Missouri State. Played for 2 USFL teams in 83 and 84. Didn't play at all in 85 but made the Broncos practice squad in 86. Went to the St Louis Cardinals in 87, they moved to Phoenix in 88.
Had 1 year stints with the Chiefs, Patriots, Browns, and Seahawks before playing a solid 9 seasons with the Vikings.
Numbers with Bet Openly
If you're betting, it doesn't make sense not to use Bet Openly.
Rather than bet "against" a book, they set you up with people taking the opposite side.
The benefit: rather than paying 10%+ tax to the books (-110) the winner only "pays" 1% of the entire bet total (-101).
