The journalism world is morning the death of foreign correspondent Anthony Shadid, who died of an apparent asthma attack Thursday in Syria. NBC Sports notes that Shadid was a dyed-in-the-wool Packers fan who would pay any price, anywhere in the world to get the latest on his beloved green and gold.

Green Bay police say they're seeing an increase of counterfeit bills used to buy Packers tickets on game days outside Lambeau Field. According to the Green Bay Press-Gazette, police expect the activity to increase as the Packers finish the regular season with two home games and at least one playoff game.

Police in Oshkosh, Wis. say they've identified the body they recovered from the Fox River near the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh campus but won't release the identity until notifying the family. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting some members of the Packers were told the body was that of Philbin's 21-year-old son, Michael Philbin.
