Earlier today, we received word that Brett Favre was hanging up the jersey, and retiring from the NFL. So naturally, the first thing we discussed was who he would sign with this fall.
However, after hearing Favre speak on issue, we recognized the sincerity in his tone–it wasn’t interpolated with whimpers or embellished with occasional sob-sister sniffles like usual.
He appears to be speaking the truth–though after the way his stint with the Jets unraveled, he should have made last year’s retirement speech the truth.
All things considered, Brett, you’ve had a hell of a career. Tonight is Wednesday night, which is pretty much like Thursday, which is pretty much like Friday, so I’ll raise a glass in honor of your retirement from coming out of retirement from the NFL.
And for those of you who were wishing he would dispel many tears like he did a year ago, we’ve provided what we like to call, The Unfortunately Difinitive Brett Favre Sob-Sister Gallery.
