Brett Favre Set to Retire After 17 Years

No joy in Packerville tonight.  Favre has turned in a lunch bucket career, a monument to the always play ethos of the NFL which seem valorous and really hides a strange form of rich man’s servitude, but within the upside down ethical world of pro football, Favre has been a straight ahead, play ugly and win type of guy.  Football won’t be the same without him.  On the other hand, as a Viking fan, I’m glad he’s going back to Mississippi.

On my way to the MIA to pick up material for learning the Weber collection.  Back in a few.
