This is true. When the Green Bay Packers signed the biggest free agent in history — Reggie White — in 1993, it changed the NFL landscape. It made the Packers fully legitimate and it made Reggie White a Super Bowl champion.
You know, I don’t live in Wisconsin anymore, so it’s kind of hard to follow Wisconsin politics. However, I do know this. Governor Scott Walker and Speaker Paul Ryan sit at the right hand of Donald Trump. They also both really like the Packers.
They seem to utilize the Packers whenever they can.
So when Walker announced some Foxconn deal today, he compared it to the Packers signing Reggie White.
