Good to hear that I lack self-confidence, and/or drink a lot, and/or eat BBQ chicken all day long. Did I cover it all. I am on my 1st beer already tonight and it is 11:30 at night. I must drink way to much.
BTW, I am a Packer fan. Things happen in life, you learn from it and go on. Now if Favre had turned in to a D. Strawberry it might be a different story. It wasn’t funny as some comments Florio makes and it is a bit touchy but I can still see the humor in it.
As someone else said, this is a blog. If you want just news, go to the four letter site, or fox or any of the other major sites.

“I just don’t think making fun of someone who has an addiction that stemmed from the pains of playing football is ‘fair game.’ If it is, then is the fact that Daunte Culpepper was born in a federal prison to a mother who was incarcerated funny too? Let’s keep going with it. Sean Taylor jokes anyone?? We’re all football fans, but we’re people first.”
Oh cry me a river. I’m pretty sure Taylor didn’t want to get murdered, I’m sure that Culpepper didn’t want to be born in prison, and I’m sure that Brett Favre did want to stay up all night popping pills, chugging beer and playing Sega, which is the main reason he got addicted in the first place. Didn’t you read his book?

Sad, it’s just sad when other people’s misery is fodder for other people’s glee.
