I knew Packer fans were a little too obssesed

The few times my daughter has thrown fits in public, I have wished there was Barney duct tape on the market. However, this Packers fan took it too far when he taped up his son for refusing to wear a Packer's jersey during last Saturday's game:

I hope that this kid is more interested in band and debate as he gets older just to torture his dad. I am guessing that this marriage was already on the rocks since the wife did not step in on her sons behalf, but choose to take pictures of the dad taping him up. Sound parenting all the way around.

Heard about that one last night on Barreiro during his "Dairyland Diary" bit where he basically reads the police blotter from parts of Wisconsin - most of it is all drinking related. As he said "You can't make it up."

Ridiculous. Did you guys see the news item about the local TV station up there cancelling Seinfeld for the weekend because it's Eli Manning's favorite show? Seriously?? You don't think any of the other 100,000 yokels up there may want to fall asleep to a little Seinfeld this weekend? Or are they all too busy painting up for the big game. How bush league can one town and fan base be?
