The best fish and chips place in town, the Corbett Fish House, is owned by a Green Bay fanatic. Packer memorabilia are everywhere. The place is a zoo when the Packers play on TV, so clearly this was the most raucous place to watch the game today. Seattle was simply terrible.
Grant carries Pack into NFC title game
With Lambeau Field looking like a snow globe, Favre frolicked in the flurries, throwing three touchdown passes as the Packers beat Seattle 42-20 Saturday, the highest-scoring postseason game in Green Bay history. Ryan Grant made history, too, recovering from two fumbles that put the Packers down 14-0 after only four minutes. He set a team postseason record by running for 201 yards, and scored three times. After its early slips, Green Bay scored touchdowns on six straight possessions.
It remains to be seen whether coach Mike Holmgren will return to the Seahawks next season. At 59, the coach who once guided Favre and the Packers to the Super Bowl title has recently dropped hints he might retire.
If he does, his final game will have come just a block or two from Holmgren Way, the street the city named in his honor.
