the new McCarthyism continues

Packer fans were booing the home team in their crushing loss to the Jets yesterday.

The fans should remember that this team is built in the image of Bob Harlan, who has a sweet Catch-22 going in that he cannot do his job due to health reasons, but he is also immune to criticism for the same health reasons.

One of the reasons McCarthy was hired was his "toughness" (whatever that means).

Two measures of toughness might be a team's ability to tackle on defense and ability to run the ball on offense. The Packers are woeful in both regards.

At least now the local sports media can dispense with the talk of playoffs.
