First, lets get something straight from the start. I don’t like the Viqueens. I only like them a smidgen more then I like the Colts, Jets, and Saints. See, I love Green Bay, and it goes against my core to even think about cheering for the guys in purple. I have said this before, I bleed cheese.
The logic goes like this; I was rooting for the Florida Gators, and I really don’t care for Alabama or Saban, but when the Tide rolled over Florida, I became a fan of the SEC representative. If someone is to be champion, there is a sense of pride, that none is worthy unless they beat you. Likewise, Minnesota beat the Pack twice, and if there is to be a team to hoist the Lombardi, let it be someone who earned it over my team.
Lastly, did I mention, as much as I resent that Brett Farve is playing in a obscene uniform, I find myself happy to see him play well. I may need some counseling, I don’t understand why I can’t resist cheering. Maybe, its the fact that he is the ironman of the NFL, or maybe its because you can see the passion for the game in his eyes, or maybe its just that he is one of the funnest guys to watch, playing this great game. I am glad he returned again to football this season, the game is better because he played.
