I have spent time in green bay and respect the history more than most but please do not try and make it into something it is not. Your two wins were well deserved and you have had some great teams. Most teams would kill for a history of greatness like Greenbay.

Please edit wikipedia if it is wrong.
Dallas (1992–1993; 1995) and New England (2001; 2003–2004) are the only teams to win three out of four consecutive Super Bowls. |
So when GB won 3 consecutive NFL championships only the last 2 counted because they played the AFL champions? Understandable that folks don't want to acknowledge teams from the 30s and 40s but some of the greatest teams in NFL history were produced in the 50s and 60s. An NFL championship really meant something then because there were no playoffs. The "hot" team didn't get a chance to win it all because there was just the 2 conference champs that played each other. There were years that a team lost only one game and didnt play for the title! It's a shame that lots of folks don't want to realize that there were great NFL champions before there was a Super Bowl.
