Halfway down the Danube

Twenty-five touchdowns, twenty-two interceptions to go

From Packers.com eNews:

Ending months of rampant media speculation, Packers quarterback Brett Favre Tuesday confirmed his intention to play for the team this year. Of course, as Favre himself would say, he never had said that he wasn't planning a return to the field.

Make no mistake: Brett Favre is the Kwisatz Quarterback. He is the shortener of the gridiron way long prophecied by the Bene Facenda.

He's also older than I am. And I'm halfway to the dirt nap.

Thus, after weeks of patient forbearance, I must now celebrate and mourn simultaneously.

(The Dune references are for K. Like the Onion crew never makes Dune references during Packer games.)
