Why is Lil Wayne relevant to the NFL all of a sudden?

The irony of a Cowboys and Packers fan planning for the future.

FOR THE RECORD

The low-hanging fruit here is a Dallas Cowboys fan who is salty about Lil Wayne and his Green Bay Packers assaulting us domestically at AT&T Stadium. Not. You know me, I look at the bigger picture. Why is Weezy F Baby trending now as a result of the NFL? Pay attention.

I’m not a Lil Wayne hater. Even if it’s hard for me to look at him currently at an ESPN desk with the FAKEST analyst who keeps the D in his mouth to get a check with UNDISPUTED. I grew up on Weezy and BG. While on active duty in the NAVY, those real Hot Boys who joined the ranks with gold slugs put me up on the game.

Wayne has been a well-known documented Packers fan. I’m not questioning his team's loyalty. Not sure how that happened coming out of the Magnolia. However, after defeating the Cowboys he has gone viral among NFL fans who weren't up on game. He’s good for business.
