Sales of Brett Favre's New York Jets jersey are breaking records, with tens of thousands of fans placing orders within hours of the Favre trade becoming official. But Favre wasn't the first person to wear No. 4 in the green and white. Via Bethlehem Shoals, the originator of Random YouTube Magic, comes this beauty (with lots of offensive language):

That was Funkmaster Flex wearing a No. 4 Jets style jersey from a video that's a few years old. No, it's not authentic NFL apparel because it has a zero before the four, but it looks pretty much like the jersey that all those fans are ordering this week.

I believe punter Toby Gowin wore No. 4 on the Jets at the time that video was made. Is Flex a Gowin fan?
