Posted on 12/03/12 at 12:20 pm in response to Vikings' Green Bay 'math' — Peterson’s pluses and Ponder’s minuses — doesn’t add up

Good post. Ponder isn't the problem, his QB coach is. Or, does he even have a QB coach? Rodgers was average until Mike McCarthy coached him up.

Love the redesign. Great work. And it's only the beginning, right?

Good post. I was surprised by the score -- before the game, I thought it was going to be close, and Jared Allen would have at least 3 sacks. But... shocking results.

Ponder is the real deal -- he'll be good, but will he get a good QB coach? If not, he will only just be 'good'. Everyone talks how great Rodgers is, but McCarthy is a great QB coach -- he does off season QB classes, the ones Favre would not attend and the ones Rodgers would never miss.

Strib redesign looks fantastic! Home page, especially.

Is the auto-page-refresh-o-matic gone? I did a quick scan of the source code, and didn't see it. But I didn't dig too deep.

I agree with @Dan -- It's easy to create a fake profile on Facebook. However, I assume Facebook will close fake profiles at some point eventually, right?

Wow. Fraud. Good grief! I can remember trying to decide if we should get our 1st child vaccinated or not 7 yrs ago, based on reports linking the shots to autism. It really stressed us out.

Our doctor finally said, "Well, the reports are inconclusive right now. But I do know for a fact your child can die from polio."

We got the shots.

This can't be true:

"Two House Republicans have cast votes as members of the 112th Congress, but were not sworn in on Wednesday, a violation of the Constitution on the same day that the GOP had the document read from the podium."
