Packers Face Broncos On Monday Night Football

For the 15th straight season (1993-2007), the Packers make an apperarance on Monday Night Football. In the NFL, only Monday night's opponent, Denver (16, 1992-2007), has a longer streak.

Green Bay stands in first place in the NFC North, but still has a long way to go in the race for the division crown - four division games remain.

Possible time change
The kickoff for Monday night's game in Denver will be moved up a half-hour, to 7:05 p.m. CT, if a Game 5 is necessary in the World Series. That Game 5 would also be played in Denver on Monday night.

Notebook: Robinson Easing Back Into It

The Packers aren't going to make any rash decisions about whether or not to activate wide receiver Koren Robinson for next Monday's game at Denver.

But the steps being taken with Robinson this week will allow them to see just how ready he is to play after being away from football for a full year.

Robinson returned to the practice field on Monday for the first time since October 2006. He was reinstated last week after a one-year suspension, and even though the team wasn't practicing, Robinson arrived in Green Bay last Thursday to begin getting a refresher course on the playbook from offensive quality control coach Ty Knott. - More.
Former Packers Great Max McGee Dies In Fall

Max McGee, the free-spirited Green Bay Packers receiver who became part of Super Bowl lore after a night on the town, died when he fell while clearing leaves from the roof of his home. He was 75.

Police were called to his home in suburban Deephaven on Saturday afternoon, Sgt. Chris Whiteside said. Efforts to resuscitate failed.

"I just lost my best friend," former teammate Paul Hornung told the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "(His wife) Denise was away from the house. She'd warned him not to get up there. He shouldn't have been up there. He knew better than that." - More.
Lambeau Field A Great Venue for Packers' Special Events Department

Since the renovation of Lambeau Field was completed in 2003, the stadium and its accompanying Atrium have hosted thousands of special events, from corporate meetings, to weddings, to fundraisers and the like.

The schedule has been steadily busy over the past four years, and special events sales manager Beth Haws said that has led potential patrons to believe availability at the Atrium is difficult to come by.

But that's not necessarily the case.

"A lot of people think we're sold out, just like every game is, so they think, 'Oh, you can't get in there. Don't even bother to call,'" Haws said. "But we still have a lot of dates available. We are busy and we do around 1,000 events a year, but we have room." - More.
