Time for a change

Well now that it seems the Vikings won't be getting Favre. It looks like the internet crystal ball is revealing a trade with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But I can live with that. If Favre was traded within the NFC North, the Vikings would beat the packers 5 times this year, while only playing them twice. Brett Favre sets records, and that would be a pretty impressive one. As a result, not only would the Packers fire everyone involved with the Favre fiasco, the entire team would cease to exist.

But enough wishful fantasy. We need to forget about what could have been. We need to move on. Farve for President. I have a roomie who would probably get violent with me if Favre donned the purple and gold. He despises the Packers and has a special hate in his heart for #4. If he were to come after me, it would be humorous, and I might be able to claim workers comp in the aftermath of his rampage. So I will now campaign for him to run for President. If the Packers won't let him belong to Minnesota, then let him belong to America. His running mate? None other than former Broncos quarterback, John Elway. Them man's also a Super Bowl-winning QB and even beat Favre in one of them. Favre will need someone to pull in the voters from AFC states that aren't very familiar with the NFC-fo-life quarterback. And what a better way to show Favre is willing to work through party lines than to choose a running mate with whom he's battled against in the biggest contest of their lives?

Vote Favre/Elway '08
