It struck us halfway through Green Bay's 5th straight drive for a touchdown that Brett Favre's performance in this game was a lot like Roger Clemens' one-hit performance against the Mariners in the 2000 ALCS. When faced with a Hall-of-Famer at his best, what can you do?

This weekend's highlight for Geoff will be a Brewer's Dinner at The Collins Pub held by Hair of the Dog Brewery from Portland. 6 courses paired with 6 beers, plus a few special releases to boot.
