This week’s episode of the Perfect Football Weekend&#153 begins with news of the trade of the Lord Brett Favre Almighty&#153…

MERLIN:&#160 Isn’t that a little over-the-top, even for you?

LSIK&T:&#160 Fine.&#160 You&#160 go check out the NFL Network’s coverage of His Gloriousness’ press conference.&#160 Not to mention the treatment he’s getting from their Web site.

MERLIN:&#160 Whatever.

…from the Green Bay Packers to the New York J-E-T-S-JetsJetsJets!!!.

The move ends a remarkably ugly split between Green Bay and one of its most beloved players, allows the Packers to move forward with new starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers and gives Favre a fresh start — although not exactly the one he wanted, as Favre’s first choice was widely believed to be the Minnesota Vikings.

It also raises the collective IQ of both teams.

On to the PFW.&#160 Favre’s J-E-T-S-JetsJetsJets!!! will be in Cleveland tonight to take on the Browns, while the NY Football Douchebags are at Detroit, Baltimore takes on the New England Pansies, KC’s in Chicago to play the Bears and Arizona will host New Orleans in a game on ESPN.&#160 (I’m hoping to watch at least one of those games, but I have company coming tonight, so we’ll see.)

Friday, it’ll be Beagles-Steelers, Seahags-ViQueens and the battle of the gay bay as San Transexual visits Oakland.&#160 (Does anyone know if & when JaMarcus Russell’s gonna play?&#160 Al Davis – why the Hell&#153 did you draft him if all he’s gonna do is collect splinters in his ass?)

Saturday we have Bills-Deadskins (c’mon, LC John Wardle – this is two slams at your beloved Skins and barely a peep from you?&#160 You okay, my friend?), Bucs-Tuna Dolphins from Miami (gratuitous Parcells reference there), Falcons-Jags, Colts-Panthers, Broncos – Tex-annes (here’s where Houston realizes what a mistake it made signing Jacques “Toast” Reeves), Rams-Titans in a sorta-kinda rematch of SB XXXIV…and my game of choice, the C’boys at the SanDiego (uh) SuperChaaaargers (a little Chris Berman lingo, there).&#160 Romo & company will get their feet wet, then Brad Johnson will spend the rest of the game trying not to pull a hammy.

Monday the Aaron Rodgers Era&#153 begins for real in Green Bay as the Bengals come to visit.&#160 That deafening silence you hear is Green Bay, Wisconsin holding its collective breath.

We’re back Tuesday for the recap.&#160 In the meantime, HDD will tell us all about how Bucky’s gonna go undefeated this year.&#160 Won’t you, HDD?&#160

    Undefeated?! Are you on crack?! I’m about a homer as a homer can get, and even *I* don’t entertain any illusions that Bucky can even HOPE to run the table this year. Why? Because of the three game stretch where they travel to the Big House, host the Buckeyes, and then, host the Nittany Lions. The ONLY way that three-game stretch could get any harder is if Bucky had to play two of those three games on the road, instead of at home. If they had to play all three on the road, there would be a serious argument for collusion against the Badgers by the Big Eleven Ten. In those three weeks, Bucky has to play the other three Big Eleven Ten teams in a row. Nope. Once again, I’m content with my Beloved Badgers being the solid third best team in the conference, and still the Kingmakers. You can’t beat the Badgers, you can’t win the Big Eleven Ten. Simple as that. It takes 30 or so years of excellence to build a football tradition. Bucky has only been at it for 15 years. But, for what it’s worth, the Bulldogs of Fresno State have circled their home game against Bucky as THE Game of the Year for them. Their coach feels that Bucky will show the Bulldogs if they’re ready for the Big Time. National recognition is one of the steps towards football excellence…

    On to Brett…He should have stayed retired. Of course, I’ve been saying here that Brett should have retired (now) five years ago. But, playing for the Jets will be a great way to remind Brett why he retired last year…that offensive line could get him killed. Look for Brett’s consecutive games started streak to end right about half time of the first game. A 38 year old QB behind an offensive line that couldn’t stop me is a recipe for disaster. While I love Brett and all he’s done for the Packers, I still have no sympathy for self-inflicted pain.

    Oh, I’m not so sure about the Jets O-Line, HDD. They did pick up Alan Fanica from the Stoolers and some other center that can’t be worse than their old one. Sure they aren’t the Bungles or Aints lines, which I believe were #2 and #1 in least sacks allowed last year, but they aren’t as bad as they were last year either.

    Speaking of the Aints, they gave a pretty salutary drubbing to Lienhurt and the Awizony birdbrains… I’ll take it. Sure it’s only preseason, but I’ll take it. Now if only my Bungles will beat up on the Cheeseheads, that will count as a PFW for me.

    Robert,

    Check out the stats on ‘new’ O-linemen on ‘new’ teams. It ain’t pretty.

    I seem to recall that the single best indicator what team(s) will play in the Super Bowl is what team(s) have had the EXACT SAME O-line for three or more years, and whether that O-line stays healthy. IIRC, for a good ten year, or longer, period, whatever team (there is rarely more than one in a season) had the same O-line for three or more years played in the Super Bowl. May not have won, but, they at least got the chance to play.

    The two positions that are grossly over-rated for free agent signings and drafting are quarterback and O-line. It takes, minimum, three years for a QB or OL to learn the system, and the procedures at the NFL level. So, I’m going to stick with my assessment that Jersey B’s O-line could get Brett killed this year. Adding two offensive lineman in the same year did NOT improve the line. It made it worse.

    The best thing about Brett wandering off to New Jersey (the Meadowlands is in New Jersey, NOT New York) is that those “Who the Hell was he throwing to?!” passes just came to a screeching halt for my Beloved Packers. Aaron Rogers ain’t no Brett Favre, but, he’s a lot less prone to throw errant passes all over the field. And, if Aaron can’t do it, Bryan Brohm might be able to. And if Brohm can’t do it, maybe Matt Flynn can. The Packers are kind of stacked at ‘Young QB With Lots of Potential” this year. Still only picking them to win 6 or so games this year. As long as five of those wins are against Da Bearz (2 games), the Dykings (2 games), and the Cowgirls (1 game), I’ll be ok with it.
