Brett Favre’s NFL Obituary

brett favre obituary

As a lifelong Brett Favre fan March 4th, 2008 will go down as one of the saddest days of my life. Yesterday, one of the greatest decided it was time to hang it up and it truly marks the end of an era.

Favre was one of the last gun-slinging, non pre-Madonna quarterbacks (err read: JaMarcus Russell). He played the game with passion, youthful attitude, toughness and a will to win few, if any, have ever had. Unlike Tom Brady or Peyton Manning, Favre never had a great offensive line, or marquee wide receivers, but he always figured out a way to make it work. He was an “Iron Man” in every sense of the word starting and playing every game to win.

It’s funny because as I flip through the TV channels people are talking about his retirement like a death rather than him just giving up the game of football. Read More »

The Sports Illustrated 2007 “Sportsman of the Year Award” Goes to…Brett Favre!

brett favreBrett Favre is as American as Apple Pie. That’s why hearing he won the 2007’s Sportsman of the Year Award brings a tear of joy to my eye.

For years Favre has been the epitome of an American hero. A hard-working southern boy who hasn’t missed a day of work since the mid-90’s - and at age 38, in the twilight of his career, is “having one of the finest seasons of his stellar career.”

Not only does Favre bring class to the field, but he brings it off the field as well.

While his QB peers Peyton Manning and Tom Brady commercially pimp themselves to the highest bidder (and hook up with foreign supermodels who refuse to get paid in American currency in one case), Brett Favre keeps a low profile. He films low-budget commercials for local mom and pop businesses and is married to New York Times Best Selling author, Deanna Favre. Read More »

Mobile Feedback: The Next 365 Days in Sports

instant feedbackThe Red Sox won the World Series. The Yankees are in shambles and so is the college football Top 25! Kobe is out of LA and Chad is out of NY. Joe is coaching the Dodgers and Joe is coaching the Yankees!

Sports is moving at a mile a minute and to make a legitimate educated guess as to where the sports world will be 365 days from now would be near impossible.

This is why we turn to the readers and find out what they think will go down over the next year. Some predictions are logical, others a brilliant and the rest are completely retarded.

Check out the predictions and leave a comment with what you’re thinking!

Rory M: The New York Knicks will fire Isiah Thomas then make the playoffs, AND the College football championship is going to be an awful game with one (or two) of the teams not being the defined number one (or two), therefore forcing the league to go to a playoff format sometime in the future.

Rob B: A 5-foot Asian guy will win the NBA slam dunk contest (at half the cost of an American player) and US Mens Soccer team will make the World Cup semifinals.

Rory M (Round II): There will be a huge steroids scandal that will force the 2007 Red Sox to give up their title, and Tiki Barber will be involved in a crazy sex scandal. Read More »
