Favre Requests Unconditional Release

The two most annoying things in the NFL, ESPN and Brett Favre, have teamed up to spawn the third most annoying thing in the NFL, the story entirely substantiated by an undisclosed source. Given the juicy details and Fav-RAY petting that concludes the story--

Ooohh!

He appeared to be in excellent physical condition and threw the ball with ease, even throwing a football 50 yards "on a rope" with high school receivers. He has been throwing and running with the team for more than a month.

I'd guess the source to be Favre or Favre's agent, Snaky McCashRegister.

All due respect Packers fans, this makes a lot of sense. We've all known for some time the fact, the destiny, written in God's library that Bret Favre must die on the field, throwing a pick.

Anyway, here's hoping that wherever he lands he sucks. I've never been a Favre-hater, but one can stand only so much of  this circus sideshow--and I can't standz no mo!

Vikings

Favre will want to start, not back up, and will want to play for a contender.

The marriage that makes the most sense is Minnesota. They would be awesome with a good QB (although lack of quality receivers might still be an issue).

Of course the pack won’t want to see him in their own division.

I wonder how this will play out.

I am really sick of this mess

I’ve been a big Favre fan for much of his career, but seriously, can he just retire already? How much more of this back-and-forth do we need?

Minnesota does make a lot of sense, but I truly doubt the Packers would let that one happen. I wouldn’t be surprised if another team like Kansas City even takes a look at him.

West Coast offense

I think he’ll want to play for a west coast style offense. Does Minnesota run a WCO? San Francisco would be intriguing.

Minnesota does indeed

I think Favre will demand to play for a contender. Or what he considers a contender: lots of stars, good reputation, lots of talent from the time Brett Favre’s brain could still construct new memories. That’s right, could we see Favre on the vaunted Oakland Raiders? Oh, yes, I think so. He’ll dream well knowing Marcus Allen will be pounding the rock.
