Green Bay, WI - Like a pot of bratwurst left unattended at a Lambeau Field pregame party, simmering tensions in the strife-torn Midwest boiled over once again today as rioting mobs of green-and-gold clad youth and plump farm wives rampaged through Wisconsin Denny’s and IHOPs, burning Texas toast and demanding apologies and extra half-and-half.

Protestors demonstrated against the images throughout the Badger State yesterday, with violent egging and cow-tipping incidents reported in Oconomowac, Pewaukee, Sheboygan, Ozaukee, Antigo, Oshkosh, Waubeno, Wauwautosa, Waunewoc, Wyocena, Waubeka, and Washawonamowackapeepee.

I know, that pic is great! The rotting smelly cheese and the two dopey green bay players in the background are a classic (the bomb is just a nice added infidel touch). I wish they sold that pic in poster size so I could hang it on my living room wall. The in-laws have Wisconsin roots.

If they burn Barry Switzer instead, some of us down here may even join in solidarity with the militants.

Yes! Just don't tell the cheeseheads that Switzer's alive, not dead yet, and they probably won't notice any more difference than we ever saw.
