I wanted to do something a little different for this piece given the gravity of this week’s matchup. The Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears are playing the 200th matchup between the two division rivals this Sunday at Lambeau Field. It’s the oldest, best rivalry in football, and I thought I’d let you as Packers fans tell the story this week.
I put the idea out on Twitter first, simply “tell me a favorite memory you have about the rivalry,” and was amazed by how many responses I got. While most of our favorite memories referenced the same games or same moments, our reactions in those moments were different, and that’s what makes this rivalry so special.
