So they're going to take the word of a college paper, the week of April first and no one thinks to verify it from a real news source? That article wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes around here. And remember, don't believe a THING Patler says this week.

Who actually reads the newspaper as a primary news source?

That's my school's newspaper..

It's called the Fourth Estate and the front cover of this week's edition was all April Fools stuff..

Instead of saying "Fourth Estate" at the top, it says "Fourth Mistake" and the Phoenix logo is upside down..The article below the Favre article is an article about the Knicks winning the draft lottery and selecting a UWGB professor with their top pick..

It's just a joke..Some people are just a little slow, I guess. Jeesh.

Some people need to take a joke a little better.
