INSTANT REPLAY PART IV:
THE FOLLOWING IS A VERBATIM TRANSCRIPT OF THE MAYOR'S [i.e. Charlie Nickel for those of you without a flowchart] SCOUTING REPORT & SCRIPT FROM 1996.
EDITORS NOTE: We'll be going Player by Player to get us in the mood for the 23rd Annual. Today's Featured Player from 1996 is Yours Truly, pictured below as the Ghost of Vince Lombardi, John Nickel, and/or Elvis.



PACKER WEEK-END 1996
DECEMBER 20th-23rd
PACKERS vs. VIKINGS
C Dave Gregory [aka Dave Babe, Ol Number 60, DG, Gregs, The Senator, the Philadelphia Lawyer, John Paul Jones].  
  • Scouting Report: One of only two members to return for a 7th consecutive season, Gregory is outstanding. One of the original four from the 1989 season, Dave has been through it all. He has lived the "Life of Riley" ever Packer Week-End since his rookie year and he will receive the first no-cut contract every given by team.
  • Injury Report: Distance from the "Promised Land" and a lack of contact with the team could be a problem. He's a gamer though.
  • Career Highlight: Never having to lift a finger for any of the food he has consumed at the pre-game tailgate party. He is the iron man of laziness 6 years running. This record will never be topped.
  • Career Lowlight: Mistaking cat food for a late night snack. To quote Dave, "It tasted pretty good."
NEXT MAN UP:  The Ayatollah of Rock n Rolla, Mike "Stitch Jones" Berutti
