The mayor of Green Bay will not allow one of his streets to called “Minnesota Avenue” during this important week.
Mayor Jim Schmitt announced Thursday that the street was renamed Aaron Rodgers Drive — until Monday. Rodgers will autograph the sign after the week, then auction it off for charity.
The Green Bay Press-Gazette has a run-down of other Vikings-Packers related measures. The city apparently encouraged residents to wear flip-flops to work today to mock Brett Favre’s indecisiveness. (Good to see important government work being done.)
Since this post is short on, you know, useful information, here’s one football related nugget: Ahman Green believes he’ll be active Sunday for the first time signing re-joining the Packers. Green could help on third downs and short-yardage situations, which the Packers struggled in even in their blowout win over Cleveland last week.
The better story is how someone covered up the P on Brett Favre Pass!
I’d love it Farve bought it after the Vikes win again. A clean sweep in the house that is Farve’s. Not knocking Rodgers, a good QB the Whiners should have drafted, and a class act through all this Farve drama.
“(Good to see important government work being done.)”
Oh I am pretty sure other governments do corny fun stuff like this. I think its a good in fun idea, props.
Maybe the mayor should worry more about his real job?
Well at least he’s not the mayor of sheboygan! lol
Hahahahahahaha. Are you f’ing kidding me? What a town of losers! Only in Green Bay you could wear flip-flops to work.
That’s hilarious.
Lobe the flip-flop idea.
Thanks Calistan-I was wondering why they want to take down Minn Ave and leave up Farve ST. or whatever it is..
Does he still have the steakhouse in GB?
Props? That’s so 90′s.

Premature – even if only for one day.
every QB get his own street up there?
They should have him autograph the sign and sell it before the game since it won’t be worth much after the Viks stomp the Packers.
I agree Raiderchile – Props to Aaron Rodgers for the way he has handled all of this. I’m surprised his hair hasn’t started falling out like Roger Maris. People have said some mean/harsh stuff about a young guy just trying to play QB in a no-win situation.

Did I miss an article??? PFT had something with “useful information”
great idea
Looks like Leslie Knope is working up in Green Bay. As long as she doesn’t marry any gay penguins. It’s Flipper and Eve, not Flipper and Steve!!!!
There are GB restaurants serving free waffle fries to anyone stupid enought to buy a $200 purple #4 jersey. I can just see the fry cook hawking a big loobie to go with that take out order.
Covered up the P–that’s pretty funny. I figured they would rename that street rather than MN Ave.
Does the Brett Favre steakhouse still exist in GB?
It’s rather easy to see why Packer fans are considered the most red-neck imbeciles of the NFL. Even the city of Green Bay rushes to memorialize Aaron Rodgers…….for what? He has played less than 2yrs and has put up some decent stats but accomplished nothing! The winner in all this is obviously, Aaron Rodgers, as he led the team to a 6-10 record last year and nothing thus far this year but yet Green Bay and Packer fans are prepared to “honor” him and give him the keys to the freakin’ state of WI, not for his accomplishments but merely becuz he is the “anti-Favre”. It must be a sad place to live (WI) when it is necessary to “create” a hero, a HOF’er, a savior etc. to help them to mask their disappointment at Farve no longer being a Packer. Why don’t they focus their attention where it belongs…….on Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy and how they have disassembled a 2007 team that went 13-3 and to the NFC Championship game (with the anti-christ no less). TT and MM gotta be lovin’ this anit-Favre stuff as much as A. Rodgers, it keeps the focus and heat off of them and their shortcomings. Favre gave them 17 years of “winning”, a SB, 3 MVP’s etc. etc. but their “anger” (actually it is their HURT) is directed at the very person who saved their sorry asses from remaining the NFC’s version of the Oakland Raiders. A.Rodgers has to be laughing his ass off at how misguided and misdirected the Packer fans feelings are but then again, should we expect any less from a Packer fan!? I submit that they are the dumbest football fans in the country.
I want to know why the Mayor is such a wimp that he can’t permanently rename the street…
Come on!
Sorry about the double post-sometimes this site can be maddening!!!

Lighten up.
I’m floored by the fact no one has taken this cue as a chance to take a shot at Obama, libs and government waste yet.
Oh right-wing loonies. What has become of ye? Maybe Rush is just on so you’re all glued to your radios getting your “news.” Still, I expect a much more swift and broad barrage of irrelevant anti-Obama/anti-government posts in the future.
In green Bay football is improtant business!!!
Yes Brett Favre Steakhouse is still there – very close to Lambeau.
The mayor of Green Bay will not allow one of his streets to called “Minnesota Avenue” during this important week.
—————————————–
What a screwd political move….I’m sure all the movers and shakers of the city had a late night meeting to come up with such a purely brilliant plan, and after hours of debate, came up with the most obvious one…..And of course the entire fiasco was predicated on doing something for charity……What was it that Mel Brooks said in Blazing Saddles?….”We gotta protect out phoney baloney jobs gentleman”…….
i wonder how the resident sof the town feel about the government’s ability to get a sign changed this quickly, while they wait for weeks for other services to be rendered.
That is so cute!
It is almost like Green Bay is some backwater hick town filled with corny rednecks, bumpkins and mouth breathers.
Maybe they can rev up some cheesy 1950s cheer like “GO PACK GO!”
Gotta keep it simple for the locals up in Wisconsin you know.

^^^^^^^ LOOOOOOOL !! OH SO TRUE
“There are GB restaurants serving free waffle fries to anyone stupid enought to buy a $200 purple #4 jersey.”
They should be giving away loser biscuits and cannibal-style gravy to anybody in Wisconsin that ever bought a $200 green #4 jersey.
GB fans are so bitter and petty. They are so pissed that Brett Favre is winning for the Vikings and they refuse to point the finger at their own team for letting it happen.
As for Aaron I’m getting so sick of people commending him and feeling sorry for him. What did he do exactly? He was handed a franchise, got paid to practice for 3 years, inherited a 13-3 team with the best receivers in the league and got a monster contract for leading a team to a 6-10 record. If that’s adversity I’d like some of that!
To the question “Do you think people in Minny would do this?” There is two responses to that… One, the Packers are owned by the city of Green Bay, so why wouldn’t city government support the Packers? Two, real team support means showing pride in your team, and speaking out against those players “Favre” who want to beat you in an upcoming game. Ownership and Support, GOOD FOR YOU GREEN BAY!
“Do you think people would really do this in Minneapolis?”
No they would have a gay march in Lorin park, I would rather wear the flip flops bobo!
Bob Nelson,
You’re not really trying to convince eveyone that the people of Minneapolis are classy and sophysticated are you?? I think your horribly tacky Viking outfits with the exceptionally feminine long golden braids beats the hell out of one day of flip-floops. (there are other kinds of shoes besides buckskin boots with fur trim around the top) Nice try. Stick to watching re-runs of the movie Fargo.
Thanks, downwithdansnyder.
I point out the atrocious editing on this site all the time, but most of my comments get censored despite not containing profanity or anything even close to being inappropriate.
What a Joke – The Street is a “Dead End”
Again the The “Curse of Favre” stikes Again

Judgement Day is Coming
Calm down Bob Nelson good grief; have you ever heard of casual Friday? I’m pretty certain you don’t wear executive attire to your job there bob-o! Why don’t you ask your boy Vikings1superbowl his opinion of your great state, LOL.
The city of Green Bay just needs to stop all these stupid antics. Packer fans always get upset when people make fun of the city of Green Bay, but you keep giving people ammo.. Quit giving Vikes fans such an easy target.

Take it easy there, Bob. I think that’s funny. Do you honestly think your town wouldn’t do the same thing if the tides were turned? It’s funny, that’s all. It doesn’t make them any less of a person or a worker than you so get over yourself. And by the way, this is coming from someone who lives in PA, just so you don’t think I’m being biased.
HAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHA oh man this is too good…. A little nervous are we?
Resorting to ridiculous superstition?!
Could you imagine how retarded Minnesotans would look if we changed the name of Wisconsin Ave in downtown Minny out of superstition of footbal?!?!? It’d set our city back about 145 years in terms of hickness!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAHHHHAHHAHAHHAHA
Whatever. . . . seems like most folks have moved on, except for hick publicity seeking mayors. With Ahman Green slated to dress, I’m sure the Vikes are feverishly adjusting their game plan to account for such a potent weapon.
The article I read said that Aaron Rogers Drive “is a tiny dead-end road.” That seems entirely appropriate for a mere sun-tanned kid from California.
It ain’t like he’s a big guy on a tractor after all.
Are they going to change the cross walks to cross eyes? You know, in honor of their QB.
Brett Farve is the most selfish, ME FIRST, look i’m over type attitude in the leauge. He’s going back to Green Bay, seriuosly who really cares except for Green Bay, Minn and NFL Network and ESPN.
ESPN has whored themselves off for the week talking about Farve. There’s 32 teams in the league and all they have managed to cover is Packers/Vikings all week. YAWN, BORING…
I think they’re a little… um… salty out there…
Give it a few more years and A-Rod might just have a street named after him permanently. Still kind of classless on the part of the city of Green Bay but as long as its for charity I suppose its ok. Go Pack!

Enjoy it Karen it’s the only time you will ever see your name on a street sign in Green Bay. You couldn’t fill Favre’s first baby shoes. This Mayor needs to be impeached. Unemployment is in double digits in Green Bay and he’s playing with street signs ? WTF is up with that ?
I love how Minnie mouse fans attack the mayor as if in his job, he has nothing better to do, like they (minnie mouse pft bloggers) have more important jobs. Yet here it is the middle of a workday and they are using their better employed time blogging away on a menial football site.
You guys are right, your jobs are superior, hahahahahaha LMAO!!!

Rodgers is only the second QB in NFL history to throw for 4,000 yards in this first season starting. He also threw for 28 TDs and only 13 INTs.
So why don’t you shut the hell up. You think you know everything about the Packers let alone Brett Favre when in reality, you don’t know $hit about either of them. So why don’t you go grab your horns and braids and get the hell off this post.

Best Packer Post Ever !!!
Never have truer words been spoken or in this case, typed.
After this game they will have to change the sign to “Jared Allen BLVD”….Aaron Rodgers pretty much wore number 69′s Jersey last game..actually since allen came to MN…what does he have 3 safeties in 2 years? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
When it come to losing Vikings fans have a selective memory.

Oh and by the Way…Brett Favre’s Steak House IS still there and it’s thriving. If Rodgers is lucky he might have a Dairy Queen named after him.
Why the hell is there even a street named Minnesota in Green Bay? That is the real story here…….

This is corny and dumb. It would make more sense to rename the Brett Favre street than rename a street that represents the oasis that so many thousands of Wisconsonites escape to every year to find professional work and modern civilization.
What has Minnesota ever done other than provide your state with a place to go to for work and education? Seriously. Brett is who you should be mad at or the Vikings, but not our state that so many of you obviously love.
AutumnWind999
Please shut up. This is a football site. No one wants to talk politics, and no one is ripping on your precious Obama. Quit trying to stir up a political debate, retard.
And what would Minn fans do if the tables were turned? They would act like adults, that’s what. When Kevin Garnett returned with the Celtics to play the T Wolves, he received a long standing ovation. No boos, no angry, jealous, stupid fans burning his jersey in the street. Just respectable adults, who understand pro sports are business, showing gratitude to a man who gave their team everything he had for many years.
Just something for you cheeseheads to chew on while strolling down 6-10 Drive.
Seriously even if you hate the Packers but love football- Green Bay is a very cool place to go for a gameday. Would I ever live there? That would be a big NO lol.
I live right outside of GB, so I will have to check that out. Instead of Aaron Rodgers Drive though, it should be Cross Eyed Boulevard. Its amazing that he has good accuracy when he looks into two different directions at once. Is it coincidence that Mike McCarthy is cross eyed as well? McCarthy looks like Columbo, and Rodgers looks like a Columbo offspring.
I just can’t wait to hear what the excuse is if Green Bay wins this game this week. I was always a fan of Favre but to keep an organization wrapped around your finger waiting on a decision from you, that just seems a bit much. He’s done great things for them this year obviously as they have only one loss (and yes it was a loss to the Steelers, not the refs/steelers just in case people still aren’t over that). And I was a fan of Favre back in the day, but that’s just not right what he did to Minnesota in the off/pre-season. And some of you fans who are now saying how great he is were the same ones a few months ago that were saying how much you didn’t want him in Minnesota. And don’t be so quick to be down on other city/state governments. Don’t forget who your governor once was. A former pro rassler/actor. He was great in Running Man though

——————————–
Good one genius…..wow….Your inate ability to say SOMETHING is uncanny…..feel better now doofus?
Pretty bad when you can label a guy your franchise’s best-ever QB after 7 games….points to the laughable nature of Vikings fans and their complete lack of any team history to hang their hat on…nicely done. Of course this is the same state that elects a redneck pro wrestler and a standup comedian to their Governor’s and US Senate seats. Dumbass loser Vikings fans….maybe, if Favre gets you to the playoffs you can avoid a TV blackout…maybe even sell out the stadium…douchebags.
This “leather shoes” thing is the funniest thing I have ever heard. I have lived in Minneapolis for the last 8 years, and can verifiably tell you that this is the most pathetic excuse for a metro in the U.S. They THINK they are this culture center of the Midwest, and have this strange aire about them like they are superior. There is not ONE thing here that isn’t in Milwaukee or Madison, and they can’t even hold Chicago’s socks.
But they do have a legitimate excuse for not selling out playoff games. Hmongs, Somalians and Gays are not generally an NFL demographic.
I’m from Mexico I live in mexico city, our govenment sucks a$$, but this has to be among the most useless city governments in the world when it takes the time to rename a street for a less than a week, after a guy that has no merit whatsoever. I’m a big football fan, but this is just sad, considering that Green Bay has a poverty rate larger than the average of the whole state of WI. I guess people have the kind of government they deserve
It’s called supporting your QB. WTF is wrong with you people? What’s done is done, Favre is gone and what the Packers have now is a damn good young QB. What are we supposed to do? Pout over Favre being gone and start hating the Packers or move on and show the guy we’ve got under center that we’re behind him, because we are. If you aren’t behind Rodgers, you were never a fan of the Packers; just another hanger on Favre’s balls. Doesn’t mean I still don’t respect Favre, but as long as he has a purple jersey on, I will not cheer for him.
Second, I grew up just outside of Green Bay along the lakeshore. Even now when I come back, all it is are fisherman from Minnesota on our charter boats and in the bars. The whole bay area/Door County area must not be too much of a dump when it’s constantly overrun by Minnesotans and Illinoisans.
16 year old students at USC know more then you? Did you mean THAN you, or did you mean 16 year old morons? Are you one of them? I think grammar is an important consideration whether it is a football site or an epitaph on a gravestone. In fact, I consider it a direct reflection of the intelligence of the writer. For instance, for giggles, just assume everyone is a college graduate for a moment. And for errors made within one simple post with approximately 100 words (like these,) you deduct one level of education for each wrong word, or misspelling, or the use of poor grammar in general. It is easy to determine the collective intelligence level of the typical Viking fan; as something just short of fifth grade. It explains a lot. And by the way latecomer….Favre is the person responsible for Favre no longer playing in Green Bay, nobody else. But what would it matter anyway? Aaron Rodgers is better than he is.
Vikings fans on these boards are really proving why their “support” for their team has netted them a grand total of zero Super Bowl victories in the long and embarrassing history of their franchise.
What am I missing here? A Minnesotan attacks Wisconsin folks, implying they are hickish rednecks. Hmmm, an interesting theory from a similarly situated Midwesterner. And last I checked, impressing someone by the way you dress probably went out in the 1920′s…but whatever you believe there Bob-o.
Back to football, it continues to pain me that people on here believe they “they” or “us” or “we” had anything to do with what happens between professional football teams. Hint…other than overpaying for game tickets and merchandise, you have NOTHING to do with professional football. You keep the financial wheels churning and nothing more. Take pride in “your” team if you wish, but it’s really misplaced in the grand scheme of things.
So Brett Favre is returning to Green Bay…who cares. This has been a Roger Goodell setup for two years now and only now has it really come to fruition…and along the way all of you suckers bought into the type. Just as the money machine known as the NFL wanted you to. Swallowed you whole….

Where to start with this post? The media is brain washing us? If they’re doing any brainwashing it’s to love Favre and demonize the Packers, not the other way around. Also, by “true fan” do you mean of the Packers? Because if that’s the case, then being a “true fan” would mean opposing Favre and cheering for the Packers despite a crappy front office.
Second, for someone who supposedly goes to USC, you have horrible sentence structure and spelling. Not to mention, if you are indeed attending USC, it’s likely that you nor your parents have much to worry about with this economy.
Lastly, by USC, do you mean Southern Cal or University of Sucking Cock.
Actually he said he was going to change the name of the road on monday. He said it on PTI or First Take or one of those espn shows. He also said they were going to do something with Waffles he wouldnt say what that was but obviously its because of Brett Farve waffling about retiring for the last decade.
I wonder if the Pack will be wearin’ throw back uniforms this week…….after all, they’re busy bringing back a bunch of “throw backs” in Clifton and ahman greene…….probably not, as packer fans are still living in the 60′s with their redneck mentality and actions…….too bad they can’t bring back Favre though, LOL.

Post after post of insults from vikings fans who spent the last 18 years telling us how Favre was overrated. Now he’s the Lord of Hosts.
This is a gimmick that benefits charity for crying out loud. The street sign will be taken down and auctioned. The original street sign will be back in its place in a week. Mayors of cities do crap like this ALL THE TIME.

“Just something for you cheeseheads to chew on while strolling down 6-10 Drive”
While we’re chewing on things, I believe the tally is as such…
World Championships….
Green Bay 12
Minnesota 0
Deal with it.

That’s great, and something to be proud of… if you had anything to do with any of those 12 championships. But since you have not, let’s try to focus on the present, seeing as how the last member of your last championship is now a Viking.
The Pack is 4-2, and now is entering the difficult part of it’s schedule. With that O line (or lack thereof) GB is going to be in trouble down the stretch, and 8-8 is very conceivable. They missed the playoffs last year, and are more than likely going to be watching Minny in the playoffs from their couches again this year.

Vikes-N-favre,
Making fun of someone’s physical appearance? Are you twelve? I am embarrassed for you.*******************************************************************************************
Yeah, Supersuckers! That’s how Queen’s fans get down. Resorting to childish name calling is all they can do since they’re team has been sucking dick since way back when…
Another Queen fan that does similar shit like that is that Pervy_Harvin clown.
This little bitch once said I need to take my “takes” to some soccer site or something like that.
While it was funny, me thinks that it just goes to show the difference in fans.
The Vikes attract rednecks where as the Pack has an all around International audience.
I’m from L.A. so I know were I speak from.
Savvy?
I think it is all good. Let Green Bay enjoy the spotlight. When Favre is gone, be back to Port Fish Day and Summerfest as the WI highlights. Blame Ted Thompson, not me!
@ MrHumble;
That’s all you have for a comeback? Seriously? Throwback’s like Clifton and Green. I’ve heard better burns out of people locked in padded rooms that shat themselves daily.
Get your game together man….
Ah come on now Chickenfoot, that just ain’t right–cheap shot

Also, yes you do get judged on your shoes. I don’t think anybody is going to invest with a Financial Advisor wearing flip-flops. You are retarded.
Personally, I like to chose my financial advisors based on how much time they spend screwing around on a football blog all day instead of researching my various positions. The use of juvenile insults because people don’t agree with them is a bonus.
I can’t believe how many people are complaining about this. IT IS FOR CHARITY. For those who think that other city governments don’t do this, guess what, they do. For those who think that only small towns have time to do things like this, guess what, you’re wrong.
Example:
April 23rd was “Talk Like Shakespere” day in Chicago. [url="http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2009/apr/20/entertainment/chi-talk-shakespeare-0420apr20"]http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2009/apr/20/entertainment/chi-talk-shakespeare-0420apr20[/url].
September 23 was “Law & Order” day in New York.
[url="http://omg.yahoo.com/news/mayor-bloomberg-declares-law-order-day-in-nyc/28562"]http://omg.yahoo.com/news/mayor-bloomberg-declares-law-order-day-in-nyc/28562[/url].
Where are all the tough talkers from Minny now talking shit about those two cities? Apparently that’s what constitutes “government” there, right?
The rest of us get a kick out of watching both sides insult each other. We think you’re both a bunch of inbred hicks.
@Andres,
You must be kidding too. It takes a matter of a few minutes to generate this idea. And it gives the community something to discuss. It’s not that this is first and foremost on his list of “to-do’s” it’s just a way to have fun leading up to this game.
Isn’t there a soccer match or something you should be tuned in to? Football isn’t generally the topic of discussion in your parts. Leave the discussion to those who have a clue.
Lighten up people, they’re just joking around by changing the sign. Isn’t football supposed to be fun?
Yeah, Green Bay is a hick town, but it’s small. Minneapolis has no excuse – it’s like a Green Bay of about 500,000. Biggest draw is a shopping mall, and the people elected a wrestler to their highest office. What do you expect?
“Best Packer Post Ever !!!
Never have truer words been spoken or in this case, typed.”
…wow what a moron. I can see he is jealous that Rodgers is currently better then his man-crush.
Ahman Green should do a nice job filling in the IR list anyway.
Mayor McCheese should name the craters in Lambeau Field after Rodgers, since defenses have been using him to excavate them.
@Mulva
Touche, nice but I wasnt proof reading or anything more of spur of the moment thing. Everything you said is true, except the media, the media is demonizing Favre hes being made out to be the bad guy when McCarthy and Thompson kicked him out. And Im not saying you shouldnt support your team, but you have to acknowledge bad management. Hell trust me my 49ers have been like that for a while.
Yeah Southern Cal was “University of Sucking Cock” really necessary?
Also I hate English, Im majoring in Architecture haha

Hola jorgay,so we meet again?? I forgot about you,the wounds must have really went deep eh ? Calling me a little bitch while I’m enjoying my dinner( pork and beaners.Yummy!!) isn’t nice pendejo!
So being a big LA dude makes you the judge to tell us how it is? Vikes fans are rednecks(yep,I’m Irish tool) and Pack fans are multi cultural and loved by all? Quit huffin’ the glue sack Pedro,it causes brain damage! Afraid it is too late for you. LA makes you qualified to be a West coast fruit dude, you don’t know NFC North jack. Didn’t know they had computers in the hood’ ese? Must have been a blackout sale??
Once again jorgay ,I owned you like the Terminator looking for a set of clothes amidst the LA street punks! Now get your hairy lil’ taco moving along son!
ANDALE’ ANDALE’ ARRIBA ARRIBA!!!!

Deal with it.
Someone is living in the past. The packers, in their only season with Rodgers starting, were indeed 6-10.
Please people–go read this — if nothing else just for a fact check. The Packer/Favre divorce could have been handled better by both sides but only one side acted like a classless, tractor riding, hell of a football player, Benedict Arnold. I hold no animosity towards Favre–it appears all has worked out best for everyone–especially the Vikes for the next year or possibly 2. But please–look at the facts.

Good night everyone
Whew Pervy, been waitin on that one

@ footballrulz – Never know when you will get blind sided in these threads,glad I caught it! lol see you tomorrow bud
@PussyHarvin
That shit was weak! Andele! andele? There’s no way you can walk way acting like you did something!
****************************************************************************
Anyhow, if you ask any of your buddies from out here they’ll tell you that there’s a huge following of Packers fans out here, as evidenced from the jerseys that people wear out on the streets.
There’s probably more people wearing Packers jerseys over here, than there is fans wearing fag Queens jerseys at your Metro-dump! As evidenced by the empty seats that are the norm at your stadium…
You inbred -tiny- dick havin’ Leprechaun!!!

Wow, the inbred Pussy Pervy has a cheer leader!

The last non sellout at the dome was in 1997. So if by “norm”, you mean once every 12 years, then you would be correct.
Oh jorgay, I can’t fight with you anymore. It is so obvious that when it comes to trading punches, I’m a heavyweight and you but the bantam. It’s just not fair. Oh,did I mention this Irish redneck’s girl is from Piedras Negras Mexico. She was tired of lil drunk, macho men girl beaters like you.
I believe you ese,the Pack is quite the LA type of team! Do you wear cheese heads out there too? No more picking on you jorgay,sure life is hard hard enough dodging immigration !! LOL
Adios turd nugget!!!!
I honestly think the best thing I’m taking away from these comments is now knowing that I make a very nice living AND that I can wear flip flops to work if I want to.
Sure I’m not a high powered financial advisor in a suit and fancy leather shoes, but obviously we can’t all be as lucky as bobby over there in the culture epicenter of the midwest. That’s quite a distinction!
And I love the people calling Aaron Rodgers cross eyed. Very classy. He’s also better at sports than you (throwing for all those touchdowns while being cross eyed must be tough but some how he does it!), makes more money than you, and seems like a genuinely nice and happy guy (which leads me to believe he’s doing A LOT better than most of you at life, fancy leather shoes aside of course)
But hey have fun with Favre, we’ll talk after his post-season meltdown, he’ll waffle and cry well into the off season then you’ll be back where you started sans a pro bowl quaterback. I only wish Green Bay had mortgaged their future for one shot at the superbowl rather then developing an awesome quarterback. Actually….no I don’t. Have fun Vikings! Much love!
Oh jorgay, you must stop messing with me. I’m a true heavyweight in the battle of smack and you but the bantam ese. I believe you have TONS of Pack fans in L.A. Do you guys wear cheddar cheese heads also, or hunks of real queso blanco made into halftime enchiladas? Oh yah,my redneck Irish ass has a girl from Piedras Negras Mexico ese. She was tired of 5 foot,drunk and macho wife beaters.You know the type I’m sure.
I’m a good guy jorgay,won’t mess wit’ you no more. Sure life’s a bitch dodging immigration!!
Adios turd nugget!!!!!
I’d love to live in Mr. Rodger’s neighborhood and hang our with Erin’s imaginary friends. That wise old owl could tell Erin that he’s going to be on his back all day on Sunday. Maybe the trolley can carry his corpse back from the stadium
