By the way,I live 70 miles south of Green Bay and was lucky enough to see Paul play at Lambeau Field.My favorite player from those packer years was Ray Nitschke,old number 66.

What a nice gentleman (off the field)! We had the chance to talk for hours over the course of the 4-day event, during the slow times....my favorite was Jerry Kramer, but I loved them all...especially the linemen.
