Welcome to the new Packers season...

Packers video from hamiltongbp on Vimeo.

The Packers season is ready to start again and I thought I would post the video above just to get all of us motivated to cheer on the greatest football team to walk the face of the earth. I am not sure who shot this footage and I am also unsure of who edited it. Maybe I did, maybe James Rafferty, of the Montana Rafferty's. Who knows. All I know is it is awesome.

This is something I think about on occasion. At WGBA we had a great group of shooters. With the exception of Flan from FOX in Green Bay, WGBA had THE BEST football shooters in town. Hands down. NFL films looks at our stuff and drools. Anyway, enjoy this video. I do daily.

So the new season is upon us and I have yet to proclaim to you that the Packers are gonna win the Super Bowl. It is a seasonly occurrence, one that comes in the fall along with the bluster of the cold winds. Well this year I am still stinging a bit from the whole Brett Favre thing. Oh and to just pile on a bit TT decides to release Regina's own, Jon Ryan. You will know that story because TundraTalk broke the story NATIONWIDE. Those Bozo's dump the 9th ranked punter in the league for a guy who has NO ranking in the league. MORONS. Oh and again, all the great pics of Packers and stuff are from PACKER PALACE DOT COM.

Anyway to get back to my proclamation. Like I said it is tough. Had Number 4 still been here I would have been shouting it from the mountain tops, or here in Regina hilltops. Don't get me wrong the Packers are still going to win the SuperBowl. Oh yes they will. I just needed a little more time to get behind it this year. So here we go...


THE GREEN BAY PACKERS WILL WIN THE SUPER BOWL. Believe that.

They of course open the season this Monday night against the queens. Which brings me to my next comment. Like you didnt' see this one coming. The queens suck. What better team to start your season at home with an ass kicking? Maybe the bears. It will be great to see on MNF, for the whole world to see. A Rod better have his head wired on straight or there will be lynch mobs outside Lambeau.

For all you queen fans out there, there is a standing offer to bet on this game. Not for money, you all know the currencey I wager in. Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch, Funyuns, and the best beer in the world Leinie's. Bring it queen fan. I am running low on the Cap'n and Funyuns. Principe, you owe me a dinner, might as well be two. Bring it. Dahl, wanna go 'round again? Those Leinies that you paid up with this summer sure tasted good. Wanna fill my fridge some more? How about you Keller? You want some? I mean really it is like shooting queens in a barrel. How about some of you newbies out there? Want to get in on the action?

Oh and one more thing. I have been critical of A Rod our new QB that he is candy ankles and kind of a pussy but in honor of the team I have decided to throw my support behind this guy. I will be shaving my beard on Sunday to resemble his. He has this crazy goatee thing going on that I am sure will look crazy on me and sure as hell looks crazy on him. I will post it on game day for you all to laugh at.


CWA from hamiltongbp on Vimeo.

To go along with the Packers season opener I also put up the classic CWA interview and video that I shot at Lambeau. This is a band that truly is awesome. I have all their albums and a poster. If anyone is interested in a copy of the CD's let me know. This is great music to listen to on game day, at a tailgate, or any other day of the year. VERY Inspirational. Ask Trevor Doroshenko of the Regina Doroshenkos. He knows.

In the past few days I found some old school stuff that I put to DVD and then to the computer. So in the next week or so I will be posting some classic WhiteHot productions stuff that will make you laugh, cry, and maybe throw up. Stay tuned and
GO PACK GO!!!!
Shane T Keller, of the Hollywood Kellers, sent Tony some love for being in Speilberg's video...

That is so cool! The coolest thing is not that he is in this video, but the reason that he is in this picture. I am very proud of Tony and am very proud to say that I know him, his wife and people of their caliber. It really takes a special thing to do what they do and to have that kind of conviction!! Well done.

Shane

Nice Job Shane, could not have said it better.

Oh and GET BACK TO WORK!!!

Yup, I was right again, Thompson is on crack...

CLICK HERE TO READ HOW RIGHT  I WAS...

So I spoke with Jon a bit this after noon on Facebook and he said that he has not had any interest from any other teams as of yet, but it is labour day and there should be some in the next few days.

The Packers coach McCarthy said in his afternoon presser that it came down to evaluations.  They need to trust their evaluations?  I would think a 35 yard run on a blown punt (high snap) would evaluate well.  He also in the same breath said he had not seen any 'film' on the new guy.  You are the head coach and you have not seen ANY tape, not film, on your new punter?  You guys amaze me.  Hey coach, maybe you should put your brain in the freezer instead of the footballs.

I told Jon that I love the Pack and am a diehard, but am not happy with the direction the team is going and he said he himself is not sure what is going on there.

Anyway, you heard it here first.  If there is news you need to know, or at least news I think you need to know.  Check TundraTalk first before you go to CNN or ESPN.  Believe that.

Packers release Jon Ryan, Ted Thompson is officially crazy...

Okay, so I am cruising facebook today and I notice that Jon Ryan has on his status "Jon Ryan is looking for a new employer." Crazy. I start looking around on the net for confirmation and can find nothing. He posted it at 10:38am this morning. Happy Labour Day Jon. So I guess this is a TT exclusive since it is yet to be confirmed by any 'mainstream' media.

So here it is...TundraTalk sources are telling TT that the Packers have cut Jon Ryan. Jon Ryan told TundraTalk earlier today at 10:38am that his is looking for a new employer. Sources here in TT headquarters think Ted Thompson is on crack. Does he think that A Rod is that good that they will never have to punt again? They will go for it on fourth down? Or they will never HAVE a fourth down. WTF? Who is going to punt now, KGB? Maybe Chumura will come back? Or Ted will just do it all himself since he is so great.

I am just confused.

For more exclusive updates keep it here on TundraTalk the blog that does not suck.

Have a great Labour Day.

TundraTalk the Podcast, Regina Style...

Okay, first off this time I have a great photo of Cory Blashill, of the Edmonton Blashill'S, managed to get a brush with greatness pic with the guys from the show Road Hockey Rumble. That is huge. In case you do not know this show, find out. What these guys do is cruise accross Canada in a motor home and stop at different cities and choose teams and play road hockey. Usually there is a theme for the teams and the winner of the most games wins the RHR trophy. The loser gets punished. Great show. Here is a little bit to show you how great the show is. If you want season one, I have it on DVD I can cut you a copy if you offer a trade of Funyuns or PB Cap'n Crunch. Anyway, funniest show ever. They actually had me and Cory shooting stuff out of our nose funny last season.





NEXT I had the opportunity this weekend to do a podcast. That's right I finally got a show done. Jon Ryan, the punter for the Packers, who is from Regina, was in town selling sattelite systems at Audio Warehouse. I took time out of my day to wander down, get a pic with him, and do a TundraTalk, which does not suck. Just click the link to the right and enjoy. Great conversation, and a great guy. How awesome is that, the Pack are 5-1 and I get to do an interview with a Packers Player. NICE!!!

Have a great week.
