    Better yet: I could go on line to find soldout Packers tickets. AND (as a cheesehead, you'll love this) It led me to merchandise for Donald Driver but not Brett Favre..

    Donald Driver is a nice man. When I had to put my Packer fanboyness aside to cover the team, he was a pleasant interview. A serviceable receiver, the Terence Mathis of the 00s.

    But I can't think of one reason why I'd want one shred of paraphenelia from him.

    It's too bad Sid Luckman wasn't available.

    What I found really strange is the fact that "Jeff George" is also one of the most viewed Wikipedia pages.

    Just 5 spots behind circumcision

    EDIT: Jeff George was #50 when I posted it - it looks like celebrity sex tape is now #50 and George is off the list.

    Jeff George is misunderstood. Kind of like TO, Barry Bonds, Ryan Leaf, etc.

    He kinda loooks like porn vet Mike Horner in that pic. He'd help the Raiders as much as George these days I think.

    See, I think he looks like Tom Arnold in the SI cover. Maybe the former Mr. Roseanne can play the title character in George's bio-pic.

    The Contra Costa Times quoted Art Shell saying that he [Shell] couldn't understand how someone with talent like George didn't stay in one place for his entire career. I have to assume that Shell is being highly polite here and spinning this info for all it's worth. If not, he may be about to learn why Jeff George has "disappeared" from teams in college and the NFL at an alarming rate.

    I believe that Jason Whitlock was a high school teammate of Jeff George's but I could be misremembering that one...

    Swear to God, I was just about to post that. The first sentence, anyway.
