I read a letter from the mayor of Green Bay that referred to the Packers as a "small community team that can exist and succeed in the NFL despite large-market teams". Am I wrong for not being able to see Green Bay as a small community team?

It is a small market team, but it is entrenched with history. The GB fans are the best in football.

They're from a small community but they are one of America's favorite teams.

technically Green Bay is a smaller market than like NYC, Dallas, Miami etc. but I don't consider it a small market team, they poll in fans from not just their entire region but really the whole country.

In that their stadium is in a small community, yes. Green Bay is the 3rd biggest city in the state, if that. Their fanbase is huge though.

Yes, I agree the catch shouldn't even matter because of the offensive PI that wasn't called, but this angle seems to make it a little less insane to me....I dunno...

The major difference here is that the defender never really had a claim, since its on his head basically. He didn't get an arm in to make it questionable

Yeah that's definitely it. My dad has been a massive Alabama fan his whole life lol
