Second Career

Dear Mrs Higgins,

Some guys just don’t know how to retire. I mean this Brett Favre: “retired” from the Packers, then “retired” from the Jets, then, again “retired” from the Vikings.

And now, of all places, he is in Congress representing New York. Oh, he changed his name to “Tony the Wiener” (which surprised no one), but he is definitely back in the game. Now it looks like one more retirement is in the works. (how many gold watches can one guy use?)

His new wife, Huma (probably also a stage name) who is now expecting their first child, works for: ... wait for it… Hillary Clinton.

I can only imagine the conversations between those girls. “Oh yeah, that’s nothing, listen to what my man….”

Anyway, its hard to say where Brett/Tony/Weiner will show up next.

You may want to stay off Twitter, Mrs. H.

Dear Mike,

Representative Anthony Wiener isn’t Brett Favre. He just pulled a play from old Brett’s playbook.

When you read the paper, Mike: stick to the comics. We’ll all be happier.

Mrs. H
