Packer sightings have been prevalent in Eau Claire this week. On Tuesday, Coach Mike McCarthy stopped by and Thursday Linebacker Brady Poppinga greeted the Chippewa Valley.

Poppinga was in town to support the Boy Scouts of America where he was the guest speaker at Thursday evening's Leadership Dinner at the Eau Claire Country Club.

With OTA's and training camp just around the corner, Poppinga says the common theme in the Packers locker room is optimism. He added that Brett Favre is in the center of it all.
