NY Jets Get Favre – Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) Traded to the GOP

This may be one of the best pieces of satire for the week from the pen of Scott Ott…

(NEW YORK) — In a double-trade designed to end bitter recriminations, and “to let bygones be bygones”, retired Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has been traded to the New York Jets, and in return, New York will send defeated presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to the Republican Party.

Neither superstar has dealt well with being “out of the game”, and both have been looking for ways to extended their involvement.

Sen. Clinton’s people had been in negotiations with victorious rival Barack Obama to get a prominent role in the Democrat Party’s convention in August, while the Packers had offered Mr. Favre a “marketing contract” worth some $20 million which would have sidelined him as well.

But these seasoned competitors yearned to get back in the fray — to step out under the lights, to hear the cheer of the crowd, to smell the rich aroma of human blood and sweat and to savor the look of fear in an opponents eyes because you’re about to do something he doesn’t expect.

The Jets ended the 2007 season with a disappointing 4-12 record, and the GOP has stumbled to a 233-202 minority in the House, and 51-49 in the Senate. Each beleaguered franchise hopes the acquisition of a storied veteran will breath new life into the organization, yet spokesmen from both acknowledge that getting a grizzled warrior to adopt a new game-plan poses the proverbial challenge of “teaching an old dog new tricks”. — as reported by satirist Scott Ott / ScrappleFace

The Democrat convention should prove to be an interesting spectacle when Hillary takes the stage as is currently planned. One has to wonder if she will be wearing her usual botox smile or will she resemble the photograph above? Battered and beaten to a pulp. What made her so distasteful to the democrat voters who yet still seem to adore her husband?
