Time to remember, kids; football is just a game. Brett Favre is just a nose-picking, lawn-mowing hillbilly that plays that game for money. The Green Bay Packers are a publicly owned corporate entity that makes tens of millions of dollars a year selling themselves as "small town cheeseheads." And there are scores of more interesting ways to kill four hours on a beautiful Fall Sunday than sitting in the dark rooting for a bunch of emotionally coddled, socially unaware, hyper-violent genetic freak millionaires who happen to be wearing the jersey of the team in the closest geographic proximity to your couch.
Hike, bike, shop, paint, re-tool, cook, write, read, produce, massage, adjust, readjust, wash, brush, camp, road trip, iron, carve, move, mull, hypothesize, question, listen, speak, grunt, mow for Chrissakes!
My theory; The more intense one's interest in sports, the less of an interesting, fulfilling personal life they lead.
Nothing wrong with being a fan, I'm one too...but a little perspective, please.
