The last two weeks in Wisconsin you couldn’t go anywhere without Favre debates sparking up like brush fires in a lightning storm.

I was at the local Office Depot. Or Office Max. Whichever. Doesn’t matter.

Clerk: So, you saw the game?

Me: (slightly irritated, wanting to buy a $10 CF card reader and get the hell out) Yup.

Clerk: Who were you pulling for?

Me: Seriously? The Saints.

Clerk: Really? I was pullin’ for the old man. I mean …(insert fellating drone about how wonderful the swashbuckler from Mississippi was and that if this guy wasn’t straight he’d totally do Favre)…. I mean, Packer fans can’t really forget about the 16 years years he gave us, can they?

Me: Uh, yeah. I think they can. Seems he forgot about those 16 years pretty quick.

Clerk: (Shakes head) To each their own, I guess.

Me: Yup. Go Saints.
