I live in the north, exactly 100 miles north of Green Bay, Wisconsin on the Michigan/Wisconsin border. I'm a Detroit Lion fan, proud to admit, even so Detroit is located south-east a good 600 miles. I live 300 miles from where the Minnesota Vikings play to the west and 310 miles where the Chicago Bears play to the south. And as far as the Green Bay Packers, it's a knock on the door to where they play.
The Detroit Lions finished the 2010 year winning four straight including victories over Green Bay and Minnesota. Watch out for the Lions in 2011.
As far as the 2010 season goes, the NFC North division of Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit, and Minnesota had much to prove to all the skeptics that follow the NFL. The NFC North was picked as one of the weakest divisions in all the NFL before the season started. Only the Green Bay Packers were given any chance of winning games to make the playoffs, because one team has to win the division title to represent the division in the playoffs.
Whuh, a term used by the people in Yooper country the U. P. Peninsula of Michigan, the NFC North ended to be awesome in many respects as the Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears in the NFC title game to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. Who would of thunk it?
By Favre the NFC North Division is the best in the National Football Conference. And let Brett Favre again sign retirement papers to the NFL. The respect of the NFC North Division is granted.
