Guess what I did today?
I played basketball.
Guess what else I did?
I was on a winning team.
For once.

My teammate explained some crucial fundamentals of the game to me.

Dude, 3 day weekend!

I was in the truck today and we drove through Times Square.
You know what is the worst?
Times Square.

I think my least favorite spot is a point where you drive past the giant M+M display.
And then on the other side is this gourmet popcorn store.

You know that scene where the kid runs between the statues and the statue's eyes light up and shoot lasers at the kid?
It is sort of like that in Times Square.

But today was a little different because there was a new billboard and the sight of it almost brought tears to my eyes.
A giant copy of Madden 2009.
With Brett Favre on the cover.

The largest Brett Favre I have ever seen, and it was GLORIOUS!!!

I felt so proud.
So happy.

Don't forget.

This is why he is the best.

Remember when I was pulling for Will Ferrel to play Brett Favre?
Man, I still think that would be a good match.
I have had some time to reflect, and I guess this is just what happens.
What good would it do to come back?
What would it prove?

I thought that maybe it could be his Elway season, a season to cap the career.
One last year, to build off of last year's momentum, and to pass this young Packer team on to...
Well I don't know to whom he would pass it on, maybe '96 Favre?

That is the thing that gets me, who could ever fill these shoes?
This man brought so much joy to the small north eastern city of Green Bay.
Well, shit.

I especially love it when he says "Take two weeks off and then quit."
Shit.
