The word rivalry is often misused by sports fans--probably misused more by American sports fans than those outside the States.

Yeah what a stupid pick by us. Oh well.

More of an unfortunate pick than a stupid pick. Tony Mandarich was widely touted as possibly the greatest college prospect at any position EVER up that point.

I don't know if the Cowboys would have taken him or not (does anybody know anything about this?) but he he wouldn't have lasted long.

Of course today it is well known that the guy was a steroid monster of the 1st degree.

Yeah, the Cowboys repeatedly ending the Packers' seasons in the 90s didn't feel like a rivalry from this side in the least.
But the 2007 regular season matchup, when both teams looked like the best in the conference if not the league, was a really memorable game to me.

Of the 90's was intense, brings back memories of the good old days. I believe with Rodgers we might have won the 1995 NFC Championship game lets just say if Rodgers was that age then. Favre had a knack of giving games away in the clutch. I just rewatched that game and man we almost had you guys. Dallas was the better team in those years though. I miss the rivalry between Doug Evans and Michael Irvin when they lined up against each other. You guys remember all the Packer Cowboy games of the 90's and where you were especially the 1995 NFC Title game? Much respect to the Cowboys and their organization from a Packers fan. I don't think we play this year but maybe we will have our first playoff meeting since the 95 title game.

Favre, has said and I am paraphrasing, "well fellas it's been a great Season, try again next year" EVERY TIME he had to face the cowboys in the 90s. I believe it was ALWAYS in Texas stadium for playoffs.

He knew cowboys stadium was the end of the line... Every year.
