Posted: 02.07.2002 My Joshie's goin' to Green Bay!
'Scuse me while I sniffle and squeal... My boy's all grown up and goin' to Green Bay to meet his old pal Torrance Marshall! Yes, that's right -- the Green Bay Packers have just signed former OU QB Josh Heupel (who was out all last season with injury after being drafted by Miami). I haven't been blogging long enough for you to fully understand my love and devotion for Josh. It goes far beyond "Sooner fan loyalty". Todd smiles and nods his head every time he passes Josh's 8x10 glossy on the fridge. I don't think I washed my left hand for 3 days after Josh touched it signing an autograph.
I love Josh! And now he's going to study under one of the best -- Brett Fahv-ruh. I can devote 100% of my time and affection to the Pack next season, too, because 1) they are no longer in Tampa Bay's conference for the upcoming 2002 season -and- 2) THEY AREN'T MIAMI (or an orange team). I am just beyond excited here! Good luck on the frozen tundra Josh! Oh yeah, we're getting NFL Sunday Ticket this fall! And Todd just found out Green Bay is playing here in Tampa this fall, too...whoo hoo...
 That is a great situation for Heupel -- hopefully he's being groomed for a long, successful pro career. The same sort of arrangement worked out well for Tom Brady. ¤ ¤ credit: Mike | 02.08.02 at 12:28 AM | link- -this ¤ ¤ THIS IS GREAT!!!! How long 'til Favre retires and Josh takes over the show?!?!?! And you're lucky that you got an autograph from him... He was well known for not being too generous with his signature. One of our favorite stories is that of Rocky Calmus getting a little confrontational with Josh because he refused to sign autographs for some little kids. Maybe he's just protective of his throwing hand. ;-) ¤ ¤ credit: Lisa | 02.08.02 at 10:53 AM | link--this ¤ ¤
