Authors note: The Packers are my favorite team and I wanted to write about them as a football team and me as a fan. I also wanted to work on my thesis statement in this piece.
The Packers are the best team in the NFL. With a record of 5-0, (So far) they are tied for first with The Detroit Lions. (Which surprisingly, had a record of 0-16 just three years ago in 2008) They will be our biggest competition in our division this year because the Bears are 2-3 and the Vikings are only 1-4.
I hope to see the Packers get to the Super Bowl again like last year, especially because it's one day after my birthday. For a repeat of last year, I'm planning to have a fantastic birthday present once again. Speaking of my birthday, I feel the need to mention I was a Packer fan from the start. My first Packer outfit was when I was less than a year old.
Just like me, there are millions of other Packer fans as well. Packer fans are dedicated. They don't care if it's negative a couple degrees as long as they get to watch their beloved team, the Packers play. They will sit through the snow coming down on them in gusts, as long as they get to watch the Packers.
There's a reason they call Lambeau Field the frozen tundra. We are one of the farthest North teams there are and we have some of the harshest conditions. I believe that any other team that far north have roofs so they just close them when the weather gets rough.
There are many reasons I love the Packers. They won the Superbowl for my birthday, they have dedicated fans, the Lambeau leap,(If you're not familiar with the Lambeau leap it is where, after scoring a touchdown, the scoring player leaps into the crowd and sometimes even gives a fan the ball.) and that the Packers are a wonderful team. Other team fans don't know what they're missing.
