I’ll be honest. I stopped watching the Vikings-Saints “Skeezy in The Easy” on Thursday shortly after halftime. When the score was 14-9.

Turns out I was the smart one.

Suckas.

NFL.com doesn’t break out 1st half vs 2nd half stats, so I have to assume Brett Favre went 15 for 15 in pass attempts in the first half and 0-12 in the second half. That’s the only possible way to explain why the gunslinger didn’t put any points on the board in the second half. Because he sucked.

But I’ll give Brett Favre this: he takes the heat in post-game pressers after a loss better than cheese at a Greek restaurant.

Opa!

By the time his press conference was done, I was almost liking him again. Then I remembered he used to play for the Packers. And then did all that shit. And the hold out. And the retire/unretire. And the diva.

And then I was back to wanting to hit him in the scrotum with a guitar.

So Chad Ochocinco wants to do the Lambeau Leap if he scores a touchdown this Sunday.

Have at ‘er, Chad.

He’s gonna play.

He’s not gonna play. 

Snake on a plane.

Snake at a practice facility.

My take?  Favre didn’t sign his retirement papers in winter ‘08 because he knew he wanted to make a comeback.  He asked for his release from the Jets, making him a free agent, for the same reason.  Comeback.

But Brett Favre is old.  And it’s a new(ish) system, so Childress would want him at every OTA, practice and scrimmage.  Favre doesn’t like that idea.  He’s Brett Favre, after all. –>

And the Vikings would want him to have surgery.  But after the shit-4-brains partial colonectomy, he’s not a big fan of surgery.  (Hey, neither am I.)  He thinks it’ll heal well enough on it’s own.

Plus, Brett’s pretty sure he can beat Sage Rosenfels and Martin Lawrence for the starting QB job with his arm as-is.  So Brett’s just gonna sit tight, clutching his freshly printed Get Out Of New York free agent card.  And as we’ve learned, Brett will go to inappropriate lengths to get what he wants.  Just like he alluded to in the David Letterman Incident, when training camp comes around, expect Favre’s itch to play to come back.  (No, he’s still not willing to rub gynelotrimin on it to make the itch go away.  I’ve already asked.)

And then you can expect Brad Childress to say something like “You had me at ‘Can I skip all the practices?’ “

After that, you’ll see proof that Favre really isn’t thinking about the loyal fans in Green Bay he’s gonna screw by trying to win one game in Lambeau…wearing purple.
