Chuck D and Cheese Country Both Hate Brett Favre


(Chuck D giving Bret Favre a local Wisconsin greeting.)

Chuck D, the lead rapper of Public Enemy and also a big-time Jets fan, recently sympathized with Packers' fans over Brett Favre's sheisty ways.

According to reports, Flavor Flav was wearing a Bret Favre jersey when he was preparing to do a stage-dive at a concert in Wisconsin. Chuck D asked the crowd how they would feel about catching Flavor Flav in a Favre jersery. The crowd responded by booing. He said he could relate to their sentiment due to Favre's one year fling with the Jets.

Reactions:
First off, I had no idea that Chuck D was a Jets fan. That's awesome.

Second, nothing makes me smile more than when us big city guys can connect with those in middle America over how much we hate Bret Favre. I've never seen someone alienate a fan base more and more every year, but I smile every time Favre does.

Coach Ryan to Author Own Book



According to reports, Rex Ryan, the head coach of the New York Jets, has penned a deal with Doubleday publishing to write a book that is part autobiography and part football strategy. (I'm personally just hoping it's a series of quotes or pieces of advice that he or his father have said in the past.)

The book is set to be published next Spring. Should make for some good summer 2011 reading.
