Say it isn't so.

Can it be?  Have I turned into the very thing that I grew up knowing was the worst thing you can be?  That is the worst thing next to being a Chicago Bears fan.  Could I be a 'Fair Weather Fan".  Someone who is on board with the team when they are doing well.  Last to join, first to leave. 

I have to admit, I have Packer fever again.  I didn't watch a single regular season game this year, other than what I saw as I passed from one room to the next while my husband had the game on.  I watched about half of each play-off game and the entire NFC Championship game, and all of the Superbowl.  And post-Superbowl press conferences.  And read all of the articles online.  I am ashamed to admit that I actually care about football again.  But I wonder, do I really?  Or do I just want vengence?

I was infatuated with the Packers, specifically Brett Favre from about '95 to '03.  Then I became irritated with him for not retiring.  And again for un-retiring, etc etc.  Then I grew to hate him, and eventually football. 

Now I am conflicted.  I find myself looking forward to the season starting again next year.  But I am torn.  Do I really want the Packers to do well or do I want them to do well without Favre? 

Then there's #12.  I recently heard someone say, #12 = 3 X #4.  And he is pretty cute.
