In one of my favorite Packer-related stories ever, backup running back sent an intruder in his home to the hospital by whacking him with a bed post.

That rocks.

As it turns out the whackee and a partner who was apprehended outside Herron’s home in Howard, Wis. are now suspects in more than 20 break-ins in De Pere, Howard and Bellevue, Wis. The one guy, at this point, is still in the hospital.

More power to Herron. I try not to be too big a fan of materialism and I have no idea what Herron had that these miscreants wanted. But I have no time for and get so tired of reading about people who decide they want something enough to take it from others rather than working hard and getting it on their own.

Herron should have whacked the guy a couple more times just for good measure and the cops should have looked the other way after they cuffed the other guy so Herron could have whacked that one too.

I tip my cap to this Packer.
