[BrettStarr]

Lil Wayne is going to be on First Take this morning talking about his Green & Yellow track and why he's a Packers fan.

BTW-
Here's a link to another Packers themed song from Nick Barnett's Artist Bee Scott.

Who cares why lil Wayne is a Packers fan, what does that have to do with the team itself. That's what I never understood about celebrities and sports. Why are their opinions even valued.

Curiosity?

You tell me, why does the E! channel exist? People magazine?

It's cool that Lil' Wayne is a Packers fan. Where does Big Wayne come down on the game?

Haven't really listened to his music, and don't plan to. Mainstream rap isn't for me.

I gotta be honest, him being a Packers fan, it feels kinda weird. Like having Paris Hilton or Tom Cruise root for your team.

His Green and Yellow remix is the ultimate marketing weapon for the Packer franchise. Endorsements even beyond winning the SB are coming to the pack.

watching it now, weezy says he isnt a saints fan and never been one. He doesnt want to be a bandwagon saints fan. The reason he is a packers fan is bc his father went to the 98 SB (San Diego) and he brought home a bunch of packers stuff. Cups, towels, ect. He said growing up with that stuff made him love the packers.

Aww this makes me like Lil'wayne more. One more Packer fan is always a good thing . Whether it be a celebrity or non celebrity. Are we realling going to nit pick about a celebrity like a NFL team?

How can we watch the same show and hear different things...
What I heard was that his dad went to the SB in New Orleans and brought home a bunch of Packer stuff (said he drank out of Packer cups for years). Anyway, I was impressed that he said he read a bio of Lombardi while on "vacation" (jail time) and found it to be very inspirational. He's kinda creepy but I give him props for that.

your right I misheard superdome for san diego. Thank you for pointing out this grave error. Speaking of errors why are you still on the forum when you repeatedly said you were leaving? I think your Brett Favre.

this is slightly true. GB isn't a big market place and this is giving them some decent exposure if you want to put it that way.
