The Onion on Favre

I'm ashamed to admit that I owned a #4 Packers jersey back in 97'. Now I hate Brett Favre, or rather, the ridiculous amount of coverage he receives. The Onion, as usual, sums it up perfectly.
"I was looking at a newspaper, and it said, 'Favre Sacks Former Team,' and at that point I realized we really missed one," ESPN president George Bodenheimer told reporters. "I just want to apologize to our viewers. Had the Favre-Packers connection dawned on us sooner, fans could have enjoyed the same quality sports journalism they have come to expect from ESPN: driving storylines into the ground and exploiting every one of their subplots to the point of nausea."
