This Brett Favre 'What Should I Do?' spoof parodies the football hero's celebrity status in the form of a mock commercial.
In the spirit of the Earl Woods/Tiger Woods Nike commercial following his fall from grace, the parody features a not-so-contrite Brett Favre questioning the audience about how he should proceed following his latest brush with public scandal. Overall, the parody is decidedly acerbic and is a sharply written satire by Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda that targets not just Brett Favre, but the cult of celebrity as a whole.
Perhaps publicity itself is, more than Vicoden or anything else, the most addictive drug of all.
