Frerotte Is Fr’Realing Minnesota (Again)
By Jamie Mottram | April 9, 2008
Because Gus Frerotte has started more games for the Redskins than other QB since ‘90, we have a special affinity for the man.
And, because Gus just signed up for his second stint with the Vikings, we’re breaking out what’s sure to be the best-selling garment in T-Shop history: Frerotte Is Fr’Realing Minnesota.
Buy it now, thank me later, Big Daddy Drew and my parents’ friend Stan the Man, who wears purple from head-to-toe every NFL Sunday. Freaking Vikings, man … making us feel so much better about ourselves ever since the ‘87 Championship.

The Mayors Gus Frerottes memories:
*Watching him get the Skins first win in 1994, against the Colt in Indy. I remembered that year, the 3 victories we had, all came with Jerry Glanville calling the game..
*Meeting him at Pohanka Acura the next week, to get a few signed picture, and him to sign my gangster ass Zubaz hat that I might sport next year.
*The family divide in our home, as most of the “family” wanted to support an Italian Quarterback, while I still had faith in Heath Shuler, who wears the number 5, because his favorite baseball player is George Brett, who was my favorite player.
*Lighting up a Camel light for the first time after watching him head butt the wall agaisnt the Giants, and to keep smoking after “fake” head butted the wall the next week at the Rams, which we still lost, and im still smoking to this day.
*I had Greg Jones come into my dealership in 1999, he was looking for a new QX4. Asking about a discount, I laughed and said, these are new, we are not discounting them, but if he hurt Gus Frerotte who was starting for the Lions in the upcoming game the next week, I would sell it to him at cost.
Well for those that don’t know, Greg Jones broke Gus Frerottes thumb on the first play of that game, and came in a month later with the Washington Post article proving it.
Good for Gus.

I remember the “head butt” game, fans in our section at Fed Ex were chanting “both teams suck” in overtime. I believe there were 3 interceptions thrown in 3 consecutive plays. First by Hostetler, then by the Giants QB? (Dave Brown) then Hostetler again.

Was the head butt game not the last tie in the NFL? As a Packer fan, I welcome the signing of Gus to the Viqueens. Aaron Rodgers still could be the best QB in the NFC North.
