‘The Ego has landed’ (Bret Favre)

‘The Ego has landed’ (Bret Favre)

Green Bay — Vince Lombardi himself could not have arisen to deliver a more perfect Tuesday morning. The sun was shining, but not too harshly, on Ray Nitschke Field. Seventy degrees, trifling humidity, a soft breeze and bodies flying around the practice pitch.

It was about the time – when all those ringer-silenced cell phones started making sideline noise – that you asked yourself, “What can possibly go weird on a day like this?”
Then came word from Minnesota:
The Ego has landed.
That’s one small misstep for the Vikings, yet another giant leap into silliness for everyone else.
