    Our National Nightmare is Over

    Brett Favre has a home, and I can finally sleep at night.

    You know, it was so difficult for me the last couple of weeks wondering just what would happen with Brett Favre. I haven't been able to sleep, I haven't been able to eat, I've just sat with a blank stare wondering just what would happen with the most important figure in the world today. Not since Brittany had her court issues have I been so worried.

    I'm appaled the Green Bay Favres didn't just allow Favre to come back and play center and quarterback so he could lead the team to another Favre Bowl trophy.

    Luckily, the New Favre Jets had enough sense to grasp Favre from Green Bay and finally give Favre the big stage he deserves after toiling in anonymity for so long.

    Now, instead of having to travel all the way to Green Bay, which is way out past Canada and braving the 385 days a year of 12-foot snow, the national media types can just jump in their Favremobiles and see Favre in Old Favre (which, although the team name is New Favre, the team is based across the Favre River in Old Favre) and drool on him daily as opposed to a measley once a week.

    We, as a nation, celebrate this event with a new national holiday -- Favremas, which, unlike traditional holidays, will be an entire week before the first Jets preseason game (or whatever team Favre decides to honor with his presence). So, don't go to work the next week, because even though Favre could play tonight, what would the fun of Favre playing be without the week-long build up?

    Mazal Favre!

    I can't believe you don't have more sympathy for Favre's situation.

    Favre was going to unretire, changing all of Green Bay's plans for the fourteenth straight season (for the best, of course), but then they didn't get on their knees fast enough for them.

    He was going to help them, but now he's just too hurt. He's offended, and shocked... and hurt.

    Thank you for putting the thoughts of so many into words. I'm already excited for the next Favre-watch starting in December (call me crazy, but I doubt that Favre can turn the Jets around) and lasting until August.

    That is one of the funniest things I've ever read.
    Mazal Favre? Where in the wide wide world of sports did you come up w/ that Yiddish beauty?

    Ef'n-A, Bubba! Hilarious. I did a radio show the other night and the host asked me about Favre. I blew up. Every stinkin' offseason for the past 8-10 years we've had to put up with this BS of oooooo, Favre might retire. Oooooo, what if he does? Ooooooo, what if he doesn't? Ooooooo, Favre is contemplating his future, like Siddhartha sitting on his rock. Ooooooo, what's he doing now? Ooooooo, sources say Favre is taking a leak. Oooooo, Favre flogs lefthanded? Flash Alert! Believe me, no one is sicker of Favre Drool than me, and this is my 13th year on the NFL. Ooooooo. Pitiful me. Oooooo.
