If The Chicago Bears Picked Up Brett Favre

What a nightmare! Can you imagine the chaos if the Bears actually picked up Brett Favre??? Rumor has it, and I stress rumor, is that they're looking into it! Let me tell you, I live in a household full of dedicated Bears fans, including myself. We abhor Brett more than we abhor the Packers themselves. I think we would take a vote to seriously consider being Packers fans due to our spite toward Favre himself if he were to become a Chicago Bear! I really can't imagine what this household would become! Who do you root for? Why do you root for it? There are two most important games of the season: Packers vs. Bears. If the Bears stink that season the only reason to even watch football that season is to see the Bears trounce the Packers; to see Favre quarterbacking the Bears vs. the Packers would be unBEARable! (pun intended) The only reason we even watch any Packer game is to see him get picked off, or to see him fumble, or complain about the cold. I mean, our son's first (and, ahem, last) cuss word was when he was four and saw Favre throw for a touchdown!!! (I have no idea where he learned it by the way) My brother-in-law put it this way "It seems like Brett Favre has been around as long as I've been a Bear fan". Well, he's pretty much right on about that. It seems especially bad when the Bears have been through close to 20 quarterbacks to the Packers one Brett Favre. It stinks! It's not right; and then to stab Bear's Fans in the back and twist by becoming a Bear is just plain wrong! SongSqueeze made up a song, a parody if you will, to make fun of the most despised person in the minds of those who live here: Brett Favre and his inability to stay retired. Listen and enjoy. I think most Bears fans would agree that Favre quarterbacking the Bears would be about as fun as watching Rex Grossman take us all the way to the Superbowl...cause we don't like him, either. I guess we're stuck either way. Time to pick a new team. I'm starting to like the Colts a whole lot. And I really hope Peyton Manning isn't retiring any time soon!

Brett Favre is Making Us Laugh and Want to Sing!

Brett Favre cracks us up. As Chicago Bear fans, of course we can't stand him. We can't, however, stand Rex Grossman, either. Would we want Favre on our team? No Way! Sure he had some really good years, but we all tired of his retiring/unretiring years ago. This soap orera dilemna caused by him makes us feel for Aaron Rodgers. The guy has waited his turn, Favre said he wasn't coming back, and it is Rodger's time.
Favre now says he was forced into retirement. If you saw the retirement speech, there is no way you can believe that. We also are tired of hearing on Monday Night Football that, "This may be Farve's last game on Monday Nights." John Madden and his man-crush on Favre have made us all sick to our stomachs for many years. This whole Brett Favre Controversy has inspired me to write a song. It goes to the Tom Petty tune, "Runnin' Down a Dream." I will post the words today, and will hopefully have all the tracks recorded and on our customized songs website by the weekend.
OK- The words are done. The recording is done. Here is the personalized song:

“Un-retiring- The Brett Favre Soap Opera Song”
To the tune of “Runnin’ Down a Dream”
Music- T. Petty Words- B. Hartenberger

(Verse 1)
It was a beautiful act;
When I retired.
I had my sad face on;
The tears looked real.
The fans were depressed;
But those who did not care.
Were getting sick of me;
Cryin’ on TV.

(Chorus)
Yeah, I’m un-retiring;
Wanna keep livin’ the dream.
My home is so boring;
And everything’s about ME.
I’m un-retiring.

(Verse 2)
You know John Madden has;
A man-crush on me.
A bro-mance kept alive;
on Monday night TV.
I have to keep alive;
My record for picks.
And I could use the $12 mil;
For some hair dye.

(Chorus)
Yeah, I’m un-retiring;
Deanna’s yelling at me.
My fans are in misery
Football can’t live without me.
I’m un-retiring.
Yeah, I’m un-retiring;
Wanna keep livin’ the dream.
I’m a legend who’s living;
And the world revolves around ME.
I’m un-retiring.
