Packers came first. Georgia actually asked GB if they could use that logo as their log. Just shows you how good of a logo it is that other teams want to use it. Unlike the Bears logo were the C stands for Crappiness

Also, they wanted to use it as a "log"? You are so weird!

So why is there no other division thread. Do the NFC North fans on BO love to talk about and poke fun of each other teams and fans that much or just do the fans of teams in other divisions just not care that much about their own division?

It's because of the "characters" that support NFC North teams.

The fandom from teams in other divisions are soft. From top to bottom NFC North fans embrace rivalry and competition. Don't be envious.

Is it that or is it that the fans of all the teams in the NFC North are so used to being losers that they feel a brotherhood of sorts?

NFC North fans would band together to beat the crap out of any other division's fans, then, having accomplished that, resume pummeling each other lustily.

Says the team who was last relevant in 1972 and allowed their last HoF QB get railed by the Jag 62-7 and responded to that crushing loss by promoting Bears castoff coach Dave Wannstedt.

The on purpose brought in a washed Jay Cutler after every one knew he sucked.
