In my part of Louisiana (30 miles east of New Orleans and about 35 miles west of Kiln, Mississippi) Brett Favre is considered a neighbor and most of us root for him anytime he is not playing against the Saints. No one I know wishes him any serious physical harm.

But the moment he puts his foot on the turf in the Superdome next Sunday he becomes the enemy and we all want to see him harassed, knocked to the ground a few times, intercepted 2 or three times and sent home to contemplate retirement and the Hall of Fame.
