So, yeah...
There's been too many threads about Favre 'round here in recent history. It's become way more Packer centric as of recent times, thanks to outstanding performances in the pre-season. I am stoked for the regular season.
So - in the spirit of recent times on this board, I elect to continue our own PackerRats "streak" if you will, in good fashion.
I will not start another thread about Favre.
Instead, I will start one about his jersey.
Now, I watched tonights Queens/Texans game, and I'll circle back to that momentarily, but first let's go back to the over-orchestrated and highly staged day that Favre flew to MN and signed with the rival.
When approaching the podium - Favre is there with Wilf & whomever holding up his new "#4" jersey. And just for a second, I get the feeling that all three of them in the spotlight looked at the jersey and thought the same thing:

"Ummm...that jersey looks a couple sizes too big" - they thought. So did I.
------------------------------------
Now quickly flash forward to tonights MNF pre-season game. What did my eyes behold?
Favre wearing a jersey that appears to actually be a size or 2 bigger than what is called for.
Did anyone else notice this?
I mean, it kinda looks like he used to be a big fat lineman. Then he maybe had some gastro-bypass surgery, but he continues to wear the same jersey post-op.
WTF is up with that? Am I insane?
?
