From the Washington Post: 

A dedicated Packer fan finally removed his Brett Favre jersey. The fan got the jersey for Christmas in 2003 and has worn it for 1,581 consecutive days since. I think the funniest line from the article is, "Favre has announced his retirement, but that isn't what prompted David to doff his jersey. David's dad said his son was becoming concerned about his appearance, since the jersey barely comes down to his belt line now."

Wisconsin is home to many things, including the U.S. Bowling Congress, but no longer. I love bowling, but Texas!?

Yesterday was a sad day in Packerland with the retirement of our beloved team leader and superhero Brett Favre. Wright Thompson on espn.com said it best:

"I'll miss believing anything is possible. That's why watching a football game he played in was fun. You just never knew what he might do, either brilliant or idiotic, and you got the sense he didn't really know either. A lot of people, me included, will tell you pro football is boring. It's predictable and balanced and risk-averse. But there was always one guy who played the pro game like he was still in Hattiesburg at Southern Mississippi. We will all miss that."

"Considered a "religious experience" by many, attending a game at Lambeau Field is to come home with a memory.  "You can smell the brats from miles away" at a tailgate that has "so many grills going it must be the cause of global warming." "Bratwurst is the preferred [source of] nourishment, but you'll find folks grilling just about everything" "for nearly a mile heading into the stadium."

Man charged with shooting goats over beer

Waupaca - A man who was upset with his wife for not buying beer subsequently shot one of the family's two pet goats, prosecutors say.

Peter W. Mischler, 48, of New London, was charged this week in Waupaca County Circuit Court with mistreatment of animals, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and disorderly conduct with a dangerous weapon.

The criminal complaint said Mischler came home Saturday from hunting and became angry with his 22-year-old daughter for letting the goats out and making a mess.

While she was talking on the phone to her mother, authorities said, he told her to tell his wife to bring home some beer, but his wife refused.

He then threatened to shoot the goats, according to the complaint.

After his wife arrived home, she and the daughter heard four gunshots and went outside and found one of the two goats with its entrails hanging out, authorities said. They said that goat had to be killed later by a sheriff's deputy.

Mischler posted a $1,000 cash bond set by Circuit Judge Raymond Huber and was released.
