Even before this one began, this one was shaping up to be a rough one to watch. And it was most of the way. Both teams opted to keep their starters on the sideline. The Packers didn’t dress 33 players and some 24 Raiders players didn’t even make the flight to Winnipeg.
Then, due to some faulty turf patchwork in the end zone, the played on an 80-yard field. And in a stadium that had more empty seats than filled ones. Whose hair brained idea was this anyway?
A game still had to be played.
