Honestly, I had forgotten that Hunter S. Thompson had written for Page 2 until I watched "Gonzo," the new documentary about Mr. Duke (produced by my old pal Mark Cuban).

The Favre shit is going to drag out longer than the war in Iraq. First presidential candidate to put the kibosh on this story gets my vote in the next six elections. It can even be Ralph Nader.
