Stop the Press!

Much is being made about Vikings President Mark Wilf's comments regarding Brett Favre. And that's all well and good. But I think the lede has DEFINETLY been buried here. From Wilf:

I’m appreciative of the fact that the fans are very interested and curious about the whole situation. We have a football department, we have a head coach, Brad Childress, Rick Spielman is our head of personnel, and we go through this process with any player.

Wait. WAIT. The Minnesota Vikings...have a FOOTBALL DEPARTMENT? Great, just GREAT! Do the PACKERS have a 'football department'? Well, they'd better! Oh man, just as I was starting to feel good about the offseason...

I know I sure don't want to go to a hospital without a medical department. . . .

Ehhh.. All a company really needs is a good marketing department. Then they can make money no matter how many games they win. Just put a team of marketers in charge of picking out coaches with big personalities, and finding players that are all flash. The Raiders have shown that this is profitable time and time again.

Brett's back working out with the Oak Grove High School football team. I am shaking in my boots. Oh, wait--that's the washing machine acting up downstairs.

Read the whole article. You will laugh your ass off, funniest post I have ever read in my entire life and kind of gives you extra special feelings for being a packer fan and not a vikings fan. AARON, YOU WILL LOVE THIS!!!

Small quote from post:
I’ll root for you in a Vikings uniform, Favre. But just know that I will hate every goddamn minute of it. Just know that never has loving a sports team been more exposed as a thoughtless, irrational, singularly idiotic pursuit than in this coming instance. Just know that I will fucking hunt you down with a goddamn bow when you end up fucking us in the end.

Well, I don't know about "LOVE". I like it. It's passionate. Way too vulgar for my taste. Vulgar is weak and lazy.

They're still not gonna change their colors to Purple and Green.

If it happens, then Al Harris, Charles Woodson, Nick Collins and Tramon Williams will get very hungry. Not to mention Atari Bigby. Who else would be on the INT-catcher's list?
