Darn it Favre!

I liked Brett Favre. Really.

Unfortunately the poor man has done quite a bit to overstay his welcome. He could play football until he was fifty or even ninety for all I cared; he was the complete spirit of the Green Bay Packers and nothing less.

And then he had to leave.

What a mistake. During his going-away speech, the final, tearful, halted speech that he made, everything stopped as much as it had during September 11 a few years ago. He announced that he was stepping down and wouldn’t return.

But, believe it or not, Brett has returned to the world of football! And, like the Green Bay Packers, I have also rejected him as well. Why? He can’t keep his promises. If he didn’t decide to leave, I’d be okay with him existing for a little longer. But he decided to leave, so for heaven’s sake stay out of the game of football. A guy who doesn’t keep his promises doesn’t deserve dignity, especially at his high rank.

But it could have been worse; at least Favre didn’t pull a Clinton on his fans.

Really good news… if it is news.

Our school district is being closed because of the impending threat of snow. Two hours of freedom is apparently too much for anyone to handle — after the annoucement filled the halls, our poor announcer needed to wait for half a minute to give the time of departure, so loud were the cries of happiness.
