Okay, maybe not ESPN as a whole. But the Monday Night Football crew. Goddamn. I mean, admittedly it’s better since Kornheiser and Theisman are gone, but holy balls, it’s still horrible. Get off of Favre’s dick. I was actually looking forward to the Packers-Vikings game, forgetting that it was on the hated MNF. Jesus Mary and Joseph. The pregame show started with a retrospective, every word out of the announcer’s mouth during the game was about how wonderful Favre is. And you know what? It wasn’t much different than last year and this year. Every game–games that Favre had NOTHING TO DO WITH, dude wasn’t even in the same timezone–they talk about how well he did. During every third play. So last night damn near killed me. How he does in domes, how many dome games he has, TD passes (legit stat). Then the quarterback comparison. For anyone not watching the game, you’d think “Well, hot damn, Aaron Rodgers is the shiznit!” You would be right. But if you watched the game? Holy firey balls. Boy got sacked EIGHT TIMES. He came into the game with TWELVE SACKS IN 3 GAMES. He is now at 20 for 4 games. Get this child some protection or he ain’t gonna live to see week 16.

But really, I am fucking tired of MNF being on ESPN. Given the chance, they’d all drop to their knees to suck Favre’s dick and fight to tickle his balls. Crude, I know, but this has got to stop. “Oh it’s just the announcers”. NO. It’s not. It’s like they seek out announcers who think Favre is the second (third, fourth) coming. Because I;’ve heard them heap praise on him during a college game…and during a fucking BASEBALL game. Seriously? No. Fucking end it now.

Stats from last night’s game:

  • Aaron Rodgers sacked 8 times. The most during MNF
  • Aaron Rodgers sacked 20 times in 4 weeks
  • Brett Favre has now beat Every. Team. In. The. NFL.
  • Brett Favre was not sacked a single time last night
  • Aaron Rodgers finished with 384 passing yards, a career-high.
  • Aaron Rodgers’ streak of 159 pass attempts without an interception (the longest streak in NFL among active starting QBs) was broken with 11:47 to go in the second quarter.

Most lizards per square meter of rock.
