...said. “We had to put it in the offensive line’s hands. They did a great job physically, Nick Palazzo was huge, and they realized that they had to stop our running game with Ryan back there. It was rock-’em, sock-’em, Lambeau Field stuff...
...homemade by a community of Wisconsin craftswomen. ROSIEHIPPO.COM, a mom-and-pop business in Port Townsend, Wash., sells easels and other art supplies, dollhouses, puppets, even kid-size sheepskin hats (click Assorted Treasures).
