MNF

Am I the only one who didn't know that Brett Favre wasn't 40 years old yet? Apparently he turns 40 on Saturday. Didn't he start for the Packers back in 1978? I could've sworn him and Montana faced off in some epic battles.

Oh well. The Ageless Wonder is leading Minnesota over the Packers 14-7 in the second quarter.

With All The Steroids And Question Marks Surrounding Players Throughout The Sports World, Only One Thing Is Certain

Brett Favre will never, ever really retire.

If you thought Sal Paolantonio was an objective, soft-spoken, classy guy. . .

. . . you were wrong.



Wow. Even with the things that are right this is so wrong.

Extreme Hyperbole Alert

Chris Berman just now on the Monday Night Football half-time show:

"We thought the Green Bay Packers could never go on without Brett Favre. A lot of people thought that was the case."

This was said completely seriously without a hint of being a joke or intentionally over-the-top. I know it's Berman, so I shouldn't be shocked, but this is just SO ridiculous I am.

I mean, really, I guess maybe I was the crazy one for not thinking this 753 year-old franchise with 1,582 championships and 52,000 (rounded) Hall of Famers and a fan base stretching from the North Pole to the Former Planet Pluto would just have to disband without BRETT FAVRE, but I don't think so. Nevermind the fact that if that were true, would HALF of a PRE SEASON game be enough to conclude it's not?

Seriously. Gag me. Or kill me. Both of those seem easier than changing the channel away from ESPN, something I'm strangely unable to do.

Quazi "White Shoes" Moto

It's finally over. Brett Favre is now a member of the New York Jets. The awkward, uncomfortable, month-long Favre/Rodgers/Packers saga has come to an end. And I think I speak for all of us in saying that it couldn't have come a moment too soon.

Here's a video paying tribute to all the nonsense that ensued these past few weeks.

Hey

Has anyone heard anything about Brett Favre lately? I haven't seen or heard anything on him lately and can't find any updates.

Feedback would be welcome.
