FAVRE COMING BACK

[MadtownPacker]

If you got NFL Network put it on. Mooch actually talked to Favre on his cellphone during the show.

This one wasn't a shocker... great news nonetheless.

It'll be fun to watch him run down all of Marino's records...

that was great

the guys found out and mooch picked up his phone and gave him a call. brett was watching the show and confirmed he's coming back, and it sounded like he just decided in the last day

classic tv moment

[mraynrand]

Well either way I'm putting on my Favre jersey and getting drunk tonight.

Wouldn't you rather eat some gumbo?

[woodbuck27]

at least three things will be certain at this time next year

favre will be the all time winningest qb, passing marino and elway

he will have the record for most td's all time (the hank arror home run record of the nfl)

and he will have the record for most int's, but oh well, the guy he's about to pass sure as hell didn't come close to the td record

Most Interception's Record. . .Big Deal !!

[GBRulz]

I have been running errands for the past 2 hours and I was wondering about this. On two different scrolling marquee signs around the stadium, it said "BRETT IS BACK"...and I'm like "WTF?"

LET'S PARTY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I bet there is one person not happy about this....Marino! and well, maybe bulldog, too !!!

[superfan]

I'm glad we don't have to wait until training camp for the decision.

MARINO WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND SAW FAVRE'S SHADOW!!

Most Interception's Record. . .Big Deal !!

He is just a generous individual. A true giver! :P

Gumbo does sound good..........Ok 30 beers and some gumbo it is! I'm taking off work early to go watch the press conference. I was thinking about using the conference as a drinking game, like take a shot or drink everytime TT says "Brett", or something like that. Somebody tell my wife to cancel date night.

Your wife should join you with the shot game! Could make for a great date night....or a very short one

Did they have a press conference last year?
