* Gold Package |
I’ll be at all of the home (yellow) games that don’t have a * next to them (confusing, eh?)
The middle of the schedule is pretty brutal, what with 5 of 7 games on the road, but I like the fact that it finishes with 3 home games in December/January.

As someone who enjoys football quite a bit (some would say I go a little overboard with the fantasy football stuff), I tend to go through a bit of withdrawal after the Super Bowl. I don’t huddle in a corner shaking or anything that dramatic, but I do find myself with extra time on my hands wondering what to do. That pathetic-ness aside, there are a few off-season events that provide me with a brief football “fix.”
In chronological order:
- Preseason schedules are announced (mid-March)
- Regular season schedules are announced (early-mid April)
- NFL Draft (late April)
- Training Camp Begins (July)
- Preseason begins (early August)
Today, the first of those things happened, as the Packers announced their slate of preseason opponents (in detail here). The Packers will be playing San Diego, New England, Buffalo, and Tennessee this August, with the first game, against San Diego, coming up on August 11th.
I’m not at all excited about preseason football, mind you, just the fact that the regular season is getting closer.
