Okay, when it has to specifically be My *Football* Monster, the whole thing seems to lurch away from "psychologically healthy plaything" and towards "birth of a new fetish."

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

Fascinating. The Moore Swamp Thing run is formative for me, and I always liked Alpha Flight, but I wouldn't have thought to compare the two. I don't suppose you'd be willing to elaborate a bit?
