As I sat there watching the Packers begin the 2008 preseason against the Bengals on Monday night I could not help but begin to cheer for my guys in green and gold. Besides having the greatest uniforms in the NFL, the Packers also sport an exciting roster full of young, talented, aggressive players. Brandon Jackson made the Bengals defense look silly while running under, around, and through tacklers. However, my excitement truly peaked at the sight of Donald Driver and James Jones each running over Bengals defenders on their way to accruing some YAC (yards after catch for you non footballers). As Driver lowered his shoulder and laid out a Bengals defensive back I found myself smiling and pumping my fist. Then, as Jones trucked two defenders, lost him helmet, and sauntered into the end zone I found myself standing and cheering.
