It's always great to be a fan and shareholder of the Green Bay Packers.  But who knew the pride could rise even further after a world title?

From the AFL-CIO,

In a statement issued moments ago, current and former members of the Green Bay Packers say it’s “teamwork on and off the field that makes the Packers and Wisconsin great.

"It is the same dedication of our public workers every day that makes Wisconsin run.  They are the teachers, nurses and child care workers who take care of us and our families.  But now in an unprecedented political attack, Gov. Walker is trying to take away their right to have a voice and bargain at work...."

Signers of the statement include: Curtis Fuller, Charles Jordan, Bob Long, Steve Okoniewski, Brady Poppinga, Jason Spitz and Chris Jackie.
