Interesting thing I heard the other day. I heard Mongo on a local radio show the other day, being supportive of the Bears. The radio host started joking with Mongo that he DID play for the PAckers too. Mongo, then joikingly said he basically "took" money from Green Bay since he was on his last legs and wanted to get paid still. Also, he went on to say that he never was a Packers supporter and won't autograph Packer items. I am not sure how accurate that was when he said that, but I find it interesting (if I remember correctly from a photo I saw on the forum) that his 1994 throwback game used jerseys reads the inscription with his autograph "Go PACKERS."

McMichael was merely servicable for the Packers at that point; like the majority of players in that kind of a situation at the end of a career, I have no reason to doubt that money was his primary consideration.

That's funny. I had one of his game used jerseys about ten years ago that I sold on eBay that came from the team with a letter. I am pretty sure it was a basic white jersey. Didn't sell for much if I remember correctly. It wasn't autographed.Comment

That's correct; I do have that jersey. Those were auctioned for charity after that season, and it is his legitimate auto.
