Favre Eats Deer Sausage while talking to N.Y. Press

I just read a really funny blog entry by Silverstein off JSonline.

From reading this, Favre is doing some sort of press conference and he's eating some deer sausage that McCarthy gave him and that's when the fun begins. It made me smile. As a hunter, it made me proud...

It is a funny moment because around here people are always bringing sticks of venison sausage to share at work.

And yet the east coast press goes all girly and says, "Ewww! Do you really eat that? What does it taste like?"


And by the way, venison sausage tastes like sausage to me. I always enjoy venison sausage. But since it is customarily a blend of venison with pork or beef, it doesn't taste much different than your usual summer sausage.

This EastCoaster loves venison sausage!

They still got deer in upstate New York and whatnot?

My cousin is from New York and he just went back there last November to hunt....gasp...deer. So, you're correct that they do have deer in certain part of New York. You have to get out of the city though and into the mountains a bit.

Mine gets sent from the good ol' UP!

Did he scratch his balls or fart at the presser?

Monsters! How could you people eat Bambi?

We civilized people eat dog over here. As Bob Barker would say, "Help control the pet population...."

There's a comedian that says, "If God didn't want us to eat animals then why did he make them taste so good?"

Tasty deer sausage, I wonder where Mike got his deer. I wonder if Brett got a deer this year or if he just likes to sit in a deer stand.
