Ticket King Green Bay Happy to see Madden Curse Live!

Ticket King Green Bay happy to see the Madden Curse live on. Peyton Hillis defeated Aaron Rodgers 61% to 39%. I know for a fact that Packer fans voted for Hillis just so Rodgers didn't land on the cover. As much as I wanted Rodgers on the cover I did kinda breath a sigh of relief when I saw this. Hillis will take on Mike Vick and I'm pretty sure Vick will win, due to the fact people still want to see him get hurt. Either way I still will be buying Madden 2012, and losing to 10 year olds online. Here are some of the comments under the bracket for the Madden contest:


@Bri_Fuller: that's cause some packer fans were voting for Hillis because of the curse..rather have a #SHIP than a Madden Cover though

@ericelstad: SB repeat for sure now with no curse coming @AaronRodgers12 way!                                                                                                                                                           @schlizzag: I am perfectly happy with this. No Madden Curse in Green Bay this year! #gopackgo


Now us Packer fans can't use the Madden Curse for an injury or bad season. GO Pack GO!!!!

Aaron Rodgers outsells Favre jerseys

Aaron Rodgers has eclipsed his predecessor, Brett Favre, in jersey sales. Rodgers moved up to #2 on the top NFL jersey sales only behind Troy Polamalu. Favre dropped to #14 from #1 last year.Clay Matthews moved up to #8 from not even being in the top 25. On a side note Rodgers made the final four for the Cover of Madden. As of right now he is losing but I think a lot of Packer fans believe in the Madden Curse and don't want him on the cover for that reason. Rodgers tweeted he hates losing, so maybe we should vote for him. Right? Go Pack Go!!!

NFL mediation and NFL draft

The NFL and it's locked out players have resumed mediation. That's good news to us fans, but if they don't get something done soon the U.S. District Attorney will have to choose a side. Then the side that loses will appeal and the appeal will take around 30-45 days to be heard which is a joke. So lets get it done boys. The NFL draft is coming up soon and their is a real nice video to get our Packer fan juices flowing!

Kuuuuhnnnnn in Manitowoc

John Kuhn was in Manitowoc signing autographs at the recently remodeled Menard's store. There was at least 300 people in line waiting for the folk hero for the Green Bay Packers. We here at Ticket King Green Bay love the way Kuhn plays, for example his leaping ability to go over defenders.

Mike McCarthy 4th in Ranking

Not much news on the home front for the Pack. Today I found a poll conducted by ESPN ranking the NFL top 10 coaches. McCarthy finished #4. Bill the hooded Belicheick was ranked #1. I would consider the #4 spot for McCarthy a fair ranking. Some other tidbits sounds like the lonely Bears are trying to get Cullen Jenkins one the CBA is done. Ticket King Green Bay hopes that the Brewers can build on the last two wins and string together a few more wins.  

Opening Day at Miller Park

Opening Day at Miller Park is always out of this world. Our one and only Nick Collins will be throwing out the opening pitch to start the 2011 season at Miller Park. Lets hope the Brew can turn around the season by beating the  Braves.
