Brett Farve is a basket case. Make up your mind already! Sheesh!
Plus he is a Packer. I may be from Wisconsin, but I am not required to be a Packer fan!

easy there Gordon...
He may be a bit of a basket case but he can still whip it 50 yards downfield on a rope. Let him beat Rodgers out for the starting job and then get one more Super Bowl before he limps off into the sunset.
Here's a case study thought BTW: I wonder how much this Farve saga is costing Wisconsin employers in employee productivity? Seriously...

Uh, I think you guys are in the wrong neighborhood. This is Fannie and Freddie (can't you read the sign?). Weekend News is the next block over.
