A Conspiracy Against Wisconsin?

As I was writing the previous post, a thought occurred to me.

Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy have brought misery and shame to the State of Wisconsin, as well as all of Packer Nation.

Likewise, another McCarthy and another Thompson has also brought more than their fare share of misery and shame to Wisconsin.

Is their some sort of feud with these two families and the State of Wisconsin? Or is this just a giant conspiracy?
