Packers Fans Are Crazy

Exhibit A: The local Fox affiliate will not play a Seinfeld rerun at 5:30 on Saturday evening because they heard it is Eli Manning's favorite show. The station says it is trying to do its part.

*****

Exhibit B: A man was arrested for taping a Packers jersey to his 7-year old son after the kid refused to wear the jersey. I don't know who's crazier, the father for trying to teach the kid a lesson about civic pride, the impudent little brat who wouldn't support the team (unless he's a Redskins fan) or the turncoat mother who took the cellphone pictures and dimed her husband out to the cops.

*****

Exhibit C: A nun who won the right to be on the field for the coin toss of last week's game by winning an essay contest will be back on the field for this week's coin toss because she brings the team good luck. Apparently the sisters at her convent are well-known Packer fans and a few years ago then Packers coach Mike Sherman sent them a big-screen TV.

*****

Exhibit D: This is what they do to their dogs.
