Passing on the Legacy

I'm in the living room of my host house right now, and Simon was watching the Czech news. They started showing sports, and they went through detailed soccer news, then interviewed a hockey player for forever, and then I looked up to see none other than our very own BRETT FARVE on the screen. Stupified with delight, I managed to stutter, "Hey, that's my team. From my state. From Wisconsin." Jan came in just in time to see the winning touchdown, and he approvingly said, "Hezky." Hezky means "Nice." and it was a fine compliment. I got a little teary. Good old Packers, doing their job to bridge cultures.
