This is it. This is your opportunity. This is your chance to end what you’ve started. A new era of football can begin right away; all you have to do is win your next game. No, better yet, crush the other team on your next game. That’s right guys; I am talking about the Minnesota Vikings, led by an almost-down-for-the-count Brett Farve. The Vikings are inches away from being utterly doomed this season, as the Bears and Packers are running away with this division. Last season, the Vikings were literally one poor interception away (guess who made it) from going all the way to the Super Bowl. All they needed was a good young quarterback and they were a Super Bowl-calibur organization.
Instead, they went with a man who screams attention just as much as your MTV reality stars. Instead, you went with a man that should have retired five years ago. Instead, you went with a quarterback that has more interceptions than touchdowns in the past two seasons. And you Packers started this, by giving him hope year after year after year, when deep down you all knew that his best days were long gone. He was a decent quarterback before (back in the 90s), but he is a wilted shadow of his former self. Yet here he is all over ESPN, all over the news, conquering all football media with his selfish and self-centered ways.
No more, Packers, you can end it all with one victory. You would be 7-3, and tied for the division lead. The Vikings would be a dismal 3-7, and closer to the Lions than the top of the standings. The Vikings can move on (I am sure their other quarterback would be stoked), the NFL can move on, and we can move on. Aaron Rodgers has his chance to fully relinquish all bitter memories of the previous Packer era. Aaron Rodgers can finally rise above the Farve shadow and give his Packer fans a new ray of hope. All it takes is this one game. Win it. Do it for your fans. Do it for us. And please do it for my sanity.
Sincerely,
