This blog chronicles the ups and downs since his tearful departure from Green Bay in early 2007 to his brief flirtation with the Jets to another renaissance in the land of 10,000 lakes. Little did I know this rollercoaster ride would have this many ups, downs and turns.
Now we have the reports of a bounty on Favre in that NFC Championship game against the Saints. This blog is mostly an archive but recently updated. And while it appears there's no chance he'll come out of retirement, Favre is still the NFL's version of Elvis.
Now, on to my bloggin' until this thing is done.

- Last Day at Lambeau
- ID #750225 entered on 04-04-12 @ 4:13 pm EDT
Though his last day at Lambeau hasn't come (and time will tell for sure), this upcoming documentary intrigues me as to how the biographers will depict Brett Favre's final days in the NFL. Here is an early review of "Last Day at Lambeau... [More]

Bounty-gate Justice
The New Orleans Saints and all connected with the 'bounty-gate' conspiracy were taken to the wood shed in the worst way by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. It won't change the outcome of the 2009 Conference Champio... [More]
- Divorce-gate
- ID #748589 entered on 03-09-12 @ 12:41 pm EST
Historical perspective is what I am getting with the 'divorce' of Peyton Manning from the Indianapolis Colts and how this equates and does not equate with the messy break up that was Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers.
Let me start by s... [More]
- Bounty on Favre
- ID #748420 entered on 03-12-12 @ 10:24 pm EDT
Did the Saints cheat and should they be stripped of their Super Bowl title?
Could the Green Bay Packers have fed the kitty to up the ante on their so-called 'traitor'?
I have to take this blog out of retirement...

- Peyton and Colts = Favre v Packers?
- ID #745794 entered on 03-12-12 @ 7:17 am EDT
Hopefully, Packer fans will get a little historical perspective in the coming months as Colts owner Jim Irsay moves his chess pieces into position in hopes of removing $28 million from his payroll enroute to a big draft day.

- Last entry
- ID #715907 entered on 01-19-11 @ 1:12 am EST
I finally grew tired of tracking his season, his career and will make this my last entry.
There's no use trying to be an apologist or find ways to shine a light on his career. If he comes back somehow next year, I might see a reason to resurre... [More]
- Time To Call It A Career
- ID #711928 entered on 01-19-11 @ 1:13 am EST
He gave it his all and it hasn't been good enough of late.
Brett Favre can step aside now knowing he's been bested by father time and not feel ashamed. Most people his age cannot say they've achieved as much.
Ironic that it is the G... [More]
- What Now?
- ID #711506 entered on 11-16-10 @ 7:40 am EST
Where do you find the motivation to move on?
It seems like the season is lost, three games back in the division. Brett Favre has a host of injuries and it seems like the Vikings had spent their last gasp on that comeback against the Arizona Cardin... [More]
- Favre Pressed For Reaction To Moss Dismissal
- ID #710229 entered on 11-04-10 @ 8:36 am EDT
Brett Favre knows what he had in Randy Moss, even if Brad Childress does not appreciate the ex-ex-Minnesota Viking receiver. Favre weighed in at his Wednesday presser...

- Moss Already Out In Minnesota
- ID #710041 entered on 11-02-10 @ 10:09 am EDT
It wasn't the fantasy pairing many thought it would be and now it is apparently over. With a quick trigger, the Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress has apparently sent Randy Moss to some other team's showers.

This would be a mistake and Childress is taking his job in his own hands if they don't get a win against the Patriots on Sunday.

- What Is Favre's Crime?
- ID #709003 entered on 10-21-10 @ 8:06 pm EDT
I'm trying to figure out if the NFL is really serious about getting to the bottom of these allegations against Brett Favre? What is his crime if sexual harassment charges are not being pursued?
The victim in this is Favre's wife, first and... [More]

- ID #708509 entered on 10-15-10 @ 4:58 am EDT
Should I have added a question mark to the title of this blog entry?
Just as I want to lure eyes to read what this is about, isn't it possible Brett Favre and the Vikings want to create a little doubt for their upcoming opponent in the Cowboys... [More]
- Monday Night and the Allegations
- ID #708358 entered on 10-14-10 @ 8:20 pm EDT
There is speculation there is a silver lining in Monday night's near comeback against the New York Jets that fell flat after Brett Favre failed to connect with Percy Harvin before the interception that essentially ended the game.

- Favre Finally Gets Moss In Minnesota
- ID #707852 entered on 10-06-10 @ 7:37 pm EDT
The long awaited pairing of receiver and quarterback is no longer fantasy, but reality. Randy Moss' return to his old team in Minnesota seems to be the relief the Vikings need in their receiving corps. Questions still remain to be answered.

Interesting theory offered up.

- The Viking Has Landed
- ID #704072 entered on 08-17-10 @ 9:57 pm EDT
To share here briefy. It seems a contigent from the Vikings went to Hattiesburg to pursuade their QB to make a decision to come back on the anniversary of his last unretirement and it appears to have worked. No one knows for certain if he's final... [More]

What a time to be on vacation with no internet access at this Black Hills, South Dakota lodge. I have ears thanks to satellite TV and the news about Favre today feels a bit surreal.
