...example, I'm a 47-year-old white male, college educated, well read, with more than 25 years experience as a cop in the San Francisco Bay Area. I got tired of living in a metropolitan area and moved to a small town just north of Sacramento. Here, excluding the fast-food jobs, etc., there is no work beyond low-level labor and self-employment. And even though there is no "job explosion" here, many of us prefer to live in a more decent, friendly and respectful environment and not in cities. JOHN LASTER Auburn, California...
...extremely pleased to see reggie White and Brett Favre on the cover [SPORT, Jan. 27]. Your story tried to explain the Packer fans' pride in their team and their unique relationship with it, but words cannot express the euphoria of attending a Packers game in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It must be experienced live. The quality of leadership, starting with president Bob Harlan; the respect for one another and the fans; and the ability to focus on one thing throughout the season have brought the Packers to where they are.

...amazed and pleasantly surprised by your cover on the Green Bay Packers. Here, finally, the whole U.S. could read the proud story of the small Midwestern town and its fans recapturing greatness. Green Bay's down-home friendliness was showcased and applauded. Then I caught a tiny blurb in the paper that burst my bubble. TIME ran two regional versions of its magazine. The one featuring the Green Bay Packers on the cover was distributed only in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The rest of the U.S. got a cover featuring a bereaved and saddened Bill Cosby. Boy, do I feel like...
Brett Favre and Reggie White are using their tremendous influence to spread a positive image beyond the small town of Green Bay to an entire nation. America lives in the heart of the Midwest in Green Bay. Midwesterners show the rest of the U.S. that hard work can lead to a fulfilled life. The Packers are just a reflection of these hardworking people. DANIEL HOPPE Madison, Wisconsin...
