The Handshake
By PackerAaron
Lots of people have noticed the handshakes that the secondary extended each other yesterday after both Woodson and Williams' interceptions. (Indeed, after bellowing "picked off by Woodson!" at the top of her lungs yesterday, my wife described the displays by giddily informing me that "They're doing an English Gentleman's handshake!" - it was truly adorable to see her excitement)
This "celebration" was seemingly started by Woodson in the Detroit game, where I noticed he very sensibly shook hands with his teammates after both his pics. After yesterday's game, the thinking behind it was illuminated by Charlie Peprah:
It was a business trip so we had business-like handshakes.
Love it. Here's hoping they're all shaking hands at away games as the year goes on...

Perhaps they could all share tea on the sidelines after a pick? Let's ask Mrs. PackerAaron

That was a joke BTW. I love the handshake and don't want Mrs. PackerAaaron to think I'm picking on her, LOL

Actually, the tea idea is brilliant.

And cucumber sandwiches cut into little triangles. Jeez, glad your not subscribing to any stereotypes or anything. Perhaps when you are both finished you'll jump into your monster trucks and head off for a bud light and a few chorus' of "America the Beautiful".

Don't forget the french fries with lots of American ketchup! Whenever I went to mainland Europe I was heard "you guys eat ketchup on everything"
Sorry to be so silly. We won for the first time in a month!
You're a good sport Mrs Nagler :)

You have NO idea what a good sport I am. Gotta go, the kettles boiling.

Mrs. Nagler: How did you know that's how I celebrate Packers victories!?!? Although, you forgot that I do it while wrapped in the American flag.

Btw, that was sarcasm, sometimes that doesn't come through on the internets.
Btw #2, did Aaron introduce himself as Earnest when you first met? ;)
