The post about Mark Murphy reminded me of this. Several years ago, I took my wife to her first regular season game at Lambeau. It was a cold day in December. We (along with my parents) were waiting in the atrium having a drink before heading out into the stadium. Mr. Murphy casually came walking through the crowd asking people how they were. I don't know how many people recognized him but I did. He took a few minutes to talk to us and ask us what we thought of the renovations.

And that's no act. That's Mark, through and through.

Dear II, a friend and I would like to attend the next regular season game between the Seahawks and the Packers. He is a Seahawk fan and I am a Packers fan. It seems that will be 2021 when the NFC North and NFC West face off again. Where will this game be played?

The two teams are scheduled to play at Lambeau Field in 2021 based on the NFC North's three-year rotation with the NFC West.

Somebody made a list of every team's worst mistake over the last ten years and had the audacity to say the Packers' was drafting Jordan Love and not the last five minutes of the Seattle game. People just can't stop hating.

It sounds like somebody needs to step away from the computer in their mom's basement. Subjective lists and rankings are for people with nothing better to do. The Packers, like every NFL team, have made their share of mistakes over the past decade but drafting a quarterback in the first round who has yet to take a single NFL snap is not one of them. Fifteen years ago, they were saying the same thing about Aaron Rodgers.

I've seen a couple different lists refer to 'best' or 'most' successful RBs out of Wisconsin and none of them included James White. I know he's not really a traditional star back and doesn't have the counting stats so he may not be a better player, but in terms of career hasn't he accomplished more than most? Dude should've been SB MVP and has got it done on a couple different deep playoff runs.

Man, everyone and these lists. Knowing the thought (or lack thereof) that goes into assembling some of these, they probably forgot to include him. Seriously.

I'm surprised to see negative feedback on Outsider Inbox. I thoroughly enjoy it. I hope it stays forever. Also, no one chose John Jurkovic for their party? I always thought he had a great sense of humor.

I figured someone would just say "Whichever player is wearing No. 88" just to stress me out. Thankfully, no one did.

I hear some of these sports stars from other leagues complaining about living in "the bubble." Plenty of people have to go away for work, months at a time, and make a lot less money (e.g. the military). In today's world, maybe we could use something to bring people together and give people some entertainment and hope, and sports can do that. If it can be done safely, should we feel any kind of sympathy for these highly paid athletes?

Feel sympathy or don't. That's up to you. My answer to this question remains the same it's always been. You cannot compare "plenty of people" to the best 1,700 football players walking the earth. It doesn't work that way. Yes, these players are well compensated but doesn't make them Rock 'Em Sock 'Em robots without rights, opinions or emotions. They're the best at what they do in a league that generates billions in revenue each year. That's why they're paid the way they are. Even then, they have a small window to maximize their value.

Hello II, can I just say that as a UK Packer, I always enjoy reading people's experiences of match days, tailgates (something we don't do over here unfortunately) and especially the brats! Lambeau is a special place that I WILL visit one day (when I've saved the money) but my question is will I ever get to see the Packers play in London? They are the only team to not grace UK soil! What is it that is stopping them from playing over here? Keep up the good work and keep safe!

Quite frankly, it already should've happened but now I'm really not sure when that day will come. The international series already has been scrapped for 2020 and a lot that needs to happen between now and 2021 for it to resume next year. We need to get life back to normal. That's what we all want right now. Once we get to that point, then we can start exploring those international options again.

Some Packers fans posted that they're worried about BLM taking over the football season. This game brings people in America together like no other game we have. A year of sacrifice to make an adjustment to our country's moral compass is well-worth it. As a Packers fan, a military veteran and a black man, I would like to think that the place that Lombardi built (on his impact on race equality and not just his wins) would embrace this movement with more passion than anyone. What are your thoughts?

How good was this submission? So good I broke my rule about nicknames to post it. You are spot-on in your assessment. A majority of Packers fans are good, kind-hearted and caring people. I understand this is a hot-button issue that's become highly politicized, but it's my hope fans can keep an open mind and open heart as we continue to tackle these issues as a country. I don't know what the players are going to do this season, so don't ask me, but I challenge you today to listen to their message.
