Russ Feingold's most recent bid for US Senate has got him pinned against the NFL. In a new advert for his campaign, Senator Feingold has compared "Mr. Johnson and the corperate interest" of prematurely assuming that the November election will go in their favor. In order to do this he used NFL clips of Randy Moss scoring at Lambeau. The NFL has now asked him to remove the clips to which the Feingold campaign has complied by editing the ads.
On another note, Senator Feingold mentioned a 2005 touchdown taunt by Moss as being, "one of the most significant moments" in Packers history. If I put a list of 100 most significant moments in Packers history, the Moss touchdown would be number 206. Not much of Packer Fan?

I guess he isn't much of a fan, a real fan would know that that "premature celebreation" came in a Vikings easy win. So is he predicting the Republicans win easy???
I am confused as to why he would even use the Packers unless it was relating to the Packers in a good way.
