Cory's Corner: Packers Should Embrace History

They have 30 Hall of Famers, six retired numbers, 13 total championships, 10 NFL MVPs and four Super Bowl MVPs.

In case you didn’t know, the Packers will be celebrating their 100thanniversary this season. On Aug. 11, 1919, Curly Lambeau among others organized the Packers at the offices of the Green Bay Press-Gazette. The Packers went 10-1 in the very first season, even though anyone that saw them play generously threw money into a hat to keep things rolling.

The Packers are easily the smallest media market in all of professional sports in this country.
