Yesterday, in the words of a non-Packer fan, the cult leader retired. Packer fans certainly do not lack fervor for their team or for their quarterback. Cheese-heads, green, gold and number 4 (Brett Favre) are self evidently Packer associated. But take a look at this video.
What happened to the old saying, "grown men don't cry?" I thought football was a mans sport? I know the saying there is no crying in baseball, but c'mon that should apply to football as well. You don't see soccer players crying after they retire, and they are referred to as pansies by football fans. What happened to the days where men don't cry in public? I guess those days are officially over, but I still say it is not right to weep in public.

Poor Brett!
By the way, Jesus cried in public.
I should explain further what I mean when it is not right to weep in public. In the context of crying over football, a supposed man's sport, it is not right to weep in public. It just advances the point that football is not as "manly" and Brett is evidence of this. Therefore football fans should not mock soccer players as if they are pansies.
T, did you watch the video that is on the page linked to this post? If you have not watch it.
You know, it's bad when a football player cries over losing a game, it's even worse when a football play cries over retiring, and it's even worse when the fans cry because he is retiring.
Hm...I guess that means that Packer country is the worse.
