the holmgren-favre one looks like holmgren is at the ihop with his downs syndrome son, for real. that is a terrible, terrible photo of brett favre.

that holmgren photo is pretty OTM though, i'm just wondering why they didn't think of a reason to put holmgren and reid in the diner

also, raghib ismael! i forgot about that dude, i thought he was just a big deal @ catholic school world where everyone absolutely worshiped notre dame.

He has most recently been coaching in the extreme sports league Slamball.
this is that basketball + trampolines WTF xtreme sport that was on CBS during a FOX afternoon game

one year passes...

This seemed like a good place to post this:

Joan Jett Sez:

"I never lived in Wisconsin. One of those images you see as a kid — I might have been six or seven — it was a Sports Illustrated cover. Everybody was completely muddy, so muddy you couldn't see who was wearing what uniform. One guy had a swipe across the helmet where the mud was wiped off, and you could see part of the G through it. For some reason, as a kid, just seeing that G, I became a Green Bay Packers fan. Isn't that weird?"

ILNFL: FIND THAT COVER

Joan would've been six or seven right around 1965-66, maybe 1967 (accounting for fuzzy memory).
