I'm a bit peeved at all the Packer fans I see wearing Favre Jet's Jerseys. I mean, it's one thing to support Favre but don't people understand they're supporting the New York Jets? That they're pouring money into an organization that's going one-for-done with Favre this year instead of generously helping out the Packers by buying merchandise of the team that Favre created his legacy on?
Silliness.

I completely disagree.
When James Lofton left the Green and Gold, if I had money, I would have bought a James Lofton Bills jersey. He made the Pro Bowl one or two years as a Bill and played in 2 SBs for them. I was really happy for him.
That absolutely took nothing away from me being a Packer fan. I still loved the Packers, but James Lofton was my favorite player ever (until the mid-90s when I started liking Brett Favre better).
That doesn't mean I'm a Bills fan. But I will always like favorite players.
An other example. My family is in Houston, and often goes to Houston Texans games. I'd ask for an Ahman Green jersey because they can find a lot out there. Does that diminish my standing as a Packers fan? Not one bit. I'll always admire Ahman Green.
Donald Driver is probably my favorite Packer now. Let's say he gets traded to the Seahawks. Does that mean I can't follow Driver on the Seahawks?
Now from a financial standpoint, I see where you're coming from. Then if you can afford to, buy a Brett Favre Jet's jersey but at the same time buy a Donald Driver jersey or an Aaron Rodgers jersey. Then the net effect is neutral.
My man Donald Driver

2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty. š¹š¹ š²š² š¦š·
