FanNation - The Republic of Sport

       Dear Brett Favre,

       I've had enough of your nonsense. The days I spent idolizing you every sunday as a kid are long gone. I was watching when you were NFL MVP 3 times running, when you won the Superbowl, when you lit up the Raiders after your dad passed...... I was at the game and witnessed TD 421 in person (possibly the greatest day of my life at the time).

       Apparently those days are long behind us. I don't want to get into all the crap that has gone down since that clutch OT interception which killed your chances at another GB superbowl birth. I want to discuss the rumours that have been flying around the past week or so.

       What is this nonsense I hear about you wanting to play for the Minnesota Vikings? I mean really the viqueens? I'm having trouble thinking of an analogy that adequately describes what it is you're considering doing here.... But that would be like George Bush saying that not only did he not want to be President of the United States anymore but he was going to take a leadership position with the Taliban.... Thats like Cassiroy deciding that rather than prowling Fannation cheating.... he/she decided to go Dick Pound style and make a career of hunting down cheaters. Bottom line... If you sign with the Vikings, you're the enemy.

       Sure years down the road when this is all long behind us I'll be in the stands when your jersey is retired.... sure you were my childhood hero and I'll get past all this animosity.....

       If you come out the visitors tunnel and step foot on Lambeau field in that queer purple uniform.... all bets are off. I guarantee I will make the trip to Green Bay and be in the stands to see it. I hope Rodgers and the Packer offense torches your flimsy pass defense.... I hope you get chased all over the field and get hit harder than you've ever been hit in your career. I hope Kampman, Hawk, Barnett and the boys on defense go to work on your ass.... I hope you get hit so hard the "will he/won't he" debate will no longer concern whether or not you'll play football again.... it will be more along the lines of "will he/won't he eat solid food in the next 6 months" I understand you're mad at Ted Thompson..... fack what Packer fan hasn't cursed him and demanded he be fired? But signing with the Vikings is a knife in the back to Packer fans everywhere.

      But if you step out on the field as a member of the archenemy of the Green Bay Packers.... I hope you feel the pain that Packer fans have felt over the past year and a half. You may even get the chance to throw an int that will win us a game....

See you on Sunday...

Brett S.
