Who would want him?

I thought the title was ‘Bret Favre Requests please’ as if you wanted us to request a trade for him or something… I understand Favre not wanting to retire, but good god, sign one year deals if you can’t decide what team you want to play for.

McCoy McCoy 2010, also acceptable, Russell Okung, Ndamukong Suh, Dez Bryant, Ciron Black, Trent Williams, Miles Austin, and Sam Bradford.

Vikings

Might just be desperate enough.

Win-now team without a QB, Favre is an upgrade over what they have on their roster (supposedly, I’m not ready to give up on T-Jax yet)

The demise of the Broncos in '09 is our future. Pray hard.

Question.

Did you actually fall out of your chair and start rolling on the floor with laughter?

I sure hope so.

I fell off my chair and landed on a cast iron skillet

I should really clean up around here

I've done it before.

Extremely rare occasion though.

If the shoulder's fine

come July, he will start getting that itch. He’ll start walking funny because of it, his wife will say “you know you want to do it” and— boom!

Brett Favre also requests

that opposing players stop intercepting so many of his passes, too.

Worth a shot

Has anyone tried this? Send over a basket of cookies to the opposing secondary, along with a handwritten, personal note asking nicely if they’ll just drop any ducks that fall their way. Maybe you’ll get a group of softies.

A basket of cookies might have worked on Holmgren

I think you mean eleven baskets of cookies.

Kind of a related not,

during a lacrosse game sophomore year, the head of school’s husband came over with a big bag of gummy sharks before the game (he does this at all the games, but usually for the fans) and the coach told us not to eat any until after the game. The bag was gone before halftime.
