It’s about time. Pete Dougherty and Aaron Nagler wrote a great article for PackersNews.com about the news.

"“It has been a long road for Kramer to get to the Hall. He was a modern-era finalist (i.e., among the final 15 candidates) nine times in the 14-year period from 1974 through ’87 but never was voted in. Modern-era players and coaches have been retired anywhere from five to 25 years.”"

The feeling Patriots and Eagles fans have this morning is something familiar to those in Green Bay. It’s also something Lions fans know nothing about. OK, that was an unfair shot at the Lions.

But if Aaron Rodgers is allowed to make public comments about his head coach, I can laugh at the Lions on occasion.
