I have a dream

A wise man once told me, “what goes around comes back around.” Okay, that wise man was Justin Timberlake and he didn’t actually tell me, he sang it on his last album. But, that raises the question of whether, you know, what goes around really does come back around. We may as well have this question answered shortly, during the NFL playoffs.

There hasn’t been a shortage of ESPN or Fox Sports, not to mention local coverage (if you live in the state of Wisconsin) of the Brett Favre saga. The lovable, vintage 40-year-old has perfectly planned out his revenge against his former employer, the Green Bay Packers, or has he? The new Viking sailed his way through both meetings, passing for a combined 515 yards, seven TDs and no turnovers. The Packers and Vikings first Monday night meeting this season, was said to be the most anticipated game in the history of the NFL. But, I don’t need to tell you that, you already know. Favre has also led his team to a current 11-2 record, NFC North division title and playoff berth. But, after a 4-4 start and a loss to then winless Tampa Bay, the Pack have won five in a row and are on their way to the playoffs; on their way to a epic playoff showdown with their ally turned enemy, Favre.

I have a dream, a dream that… may or may not come truth, but damn it, we all need to dream. The playoff-bound Vikings and Packers could meet in round 2 of the playoffs with a Packers win and a Philadelphia loss, with the current NFC seeding of Saints no. 1, Viking no. 2, Eagles no. 3, Cardinals no. 4, Packers no. 5 and Dallas no. 6.

I am literally sweating just thinking about a Vikings loss to the Packers. Redemption, sweet redemption. But, before I get ahead of myself too much, the Packers need to finish this season on a good note and make it eight wins in a row and on to 12. Nonetheless, one win is more important than the rest because it makes 515 and seven insignificant; it makes 11-2 laughable; and it makes Brett Favre our BITCH.

So, let's hope December confirms what Justin was saying, and let's get our sexy back.
