Game Day

When he was hired in 1959 as both general manager and head coach of the Packers hardly anybody had heard of the former New York Giants assistant coach Vince Lombardi.

The Packers were in the midst of a serious slump having only won a single game in the season prior to Lombardi's hiring.

Under Lombardi's leadership the Packers never had a losing season.  They won six division championships, five NFL championships and the first two Super Bowls.

The score on the board doesn't mean a thing.  That's for the fans.  You've got to win the war with the man in front of you.
-Vince Lombardi
