Are the Packers' uniforms made of different material for hot summer games vs. below-zero games?
Nope. That's where the turtlenecks come in.

I continue seeing comments from Packers fans (and others) about how much they dislike the commentary of Troy Aikman, Joe Buck, and others. They never bother or annoy me. The reason is simple. I watch most NFL games at sports bars, where I can watch two or three games at once, with no sound. I don't need anybody to explain what's happening. The action is all on the screen. The Pack's long-ago announcer, Ray Scott, was a gem. He said little, but what he did say was always informative.
Commentating is one of the most difficult jobs in sports journalism. Those who do it professionally have my undying respect. It was weird listening to broadcasts the past two years after hearing only the in-game analysis of Mike Spofford and Pete Dougherty for the past decade.

Football, at its core, is an entertainment business. You gotta keep the fans happy. If there are two pending free agents that are very closely (though not necessarily evenly) matched and a team can't keep them both, does one player being more of a fan favorite weigh into the decision-making process at all?
No. If there's two comparable free agents, a team will look at the age of each player and their perceived value to the team. If that's a wash, then maybe it shifts to who's the better locker-room guy but external popularity isn't a part of that process. You'd be better off just doing a coin toss.

Good morning, may I nominate Baker from Alabama as having the "Hometown of the Year?" Choccolocco. The world is a beautiful place
Maybe I missed it but I think that's the first submission I've answered from Choccolocco, AL. I hope it isn't the last.

Hello Wes, I'd like to point you (ahem) towards Point Root Beer! Have you tried it? This award-winning root beer has been made at the Point Brewery since Prohibition! I've had clients and friends never leave town without taking some home!
Point is great. Their black cherry soda is my favorite.
Robert from Harris, MN
Wes, I'm sorry to say with the passing of my grandmother you will never get to taste the very best root beer. She brewed her own. As she used to say, "Strong enough to give you a nosebleed." I recall as a child jumping at the sound of the random bottle exploding in the basement. It is truly our memories that make us rich, and although none of us is getting out of here alive, they also remind us that some of us are darn lucky to have made it this far.
I'm sorry for your loss, Robert. My Uncle Kevin makes a pretty mean sarsaparilla, too. Maybe that's where it started for me?
Marty from Galena, IL
Weston, swing down to Galena sometime. We have a store on Main St. dedicated to root beer! Across the street is a small little bistro, Embe's, which is known for its bread pudding. To round out your trip, you can stop in Platteville and learn all about Spoff! Might be some spicy nuggets there too! GPG
Marty, I've been there. For real. I went with my future wife 11 years ago. Honest to goodness, I bought a "keg" of root beer from that place for my bachelor party. However, I haven't crossed 'The Spofford Museum' in Platteville off my bucket list yet.
Doug from Neenah, WI
Good morning. Yesterday's Inbox talked about the great unknowns in the draft room and the salary cap room. Both are fascinating mysteries we'd all like to witness in-person. But wouldn't the biggest mystery in Packerland be how do Mike and Wes operate the Insider Inbox every day?
I could tell you what it might look like, but let's welcome in Scott from Grovetown to paint the full picture.

Greetings. It's almost the end of the day, Biff sits in front of his computer...the old paycheck-earning computer. He lets out a deep sigh and thinks, "It's time to do II." With much hesitation and exhaustion, he goes to work. As he finishes, Biff smiles with pride, closes down shop, and heads for the exit. I know this feeling all too well as my day ends with taking my eighth graders down to connections, returning to my classroom, and sitting down with the same type of sigh before I begin grading work.
And now you know…the rest of the story.
