Favrenugen

After listening to Jon Gruden talk about Favre like a teenage girl talks about her favorite boy-band member for three quarters I introduced my wife to the term, "bromance."

When Favre was a Packer and I had to listen to this twice a year it seemed unbearable. Now that he's a Viking I only find it slightly annoying. Which got me thinking, what was it like for those on the opposite side?

After years of fawning coverage over Favre as a Packer and then two years of Rodgers/Favre comparisons and commentary; what's it like to hear the announcer go on and on about the quarterback of your rival like he's the second coming of Christ?

Does him once being "your guy" make it more or less bearable?
