I mentioned on another post that BF makes his team and the NFL a fortune, and that's another thing to consider when having him on your team. I made the statement that since '92, I was seeing more #4 jerseys than any other jersey by far. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any numbers.

Well, here's something for this year. According to Yahoo Sports, Tony Romo was #1 last year, but BF is #1 in jersey sales this year. Source:

Now something funny. Not only does BF make a lot of money for his team and the NFL in jersey sales, there's now a BF coin:

This is another thing I'm saying about the value BF brings your team. He gets your team recognition. I forgot all about the New York Jets before BF went there. They could have folded up and left the NFL and I wouldn't have noticed. Now, a lot of people are watching them again.

Recognition is a big deal. It helps bring your team Free Agents, and other perks.

Mods - there's a bug in the "New Topic" button in the BF section. Please move this to the BF section. I couldn't post a new topic there.

Yup! I hear now that the Jets are the toughest ticket in town in New York. I've seen Favre play as a Packer vs. the Giants and that was a tough ticket to get.

He makes the NFL a fortune and me bankrupt. Now I gotta buy my 8th Favre jersey. I added up and got figured I've spent 2800$ on Favre merchandise alone. Damn that giant bobblehead doll. LOL

A giant Favre bobblehead? Now that is something to see. I want to get a Favre Fat Head and put it in my gameroom. But I won't buy it until after I move (one less thing to pack). I managed to get the Favre Ray O Vac battery cardboard cut out. It was on display in the supermarket and I asked the manager if I could have it once they're done with it. He gave it to me right on the spot.

I bought some Favre books including the Sports Illustrator book when we thought he was retiring. I'm not buying a Favre Jets jersey until I know he'll stick around for awhile. If this season doesn't go well, he could pack it in after the season.

I'd love to have a BF Fat Head.

I currently have two BF jerseys, but both #4s are starting to rub off. They're starting to look like my Sterling Sharpe jersey, which is not a good thing.

Wish they made those things better. God knows we pay enough for them.

I'm up to 3 Favre jerseys now, the Falcons jersey, the Packers jersey of course and a Jets jersey.

But my favorite Packers item is my 2007 autographed football signed by the whole team, coaches and other staff that I won in a school raffle, my granddaughters last year at that elementary school in SE Michigan. thing
