Green Bay and Brett Favre are synonymous. Favre, as everyone knows, “retired” this past March and has eluded to returning ever since. But now, Favre has decided to distance himself from those Green Bay synonymic ways, opting for a full release from the franchise. It’s hard to say where Favre will wind up playing, but somebody will sign him. 49ers? Probably not, but I’d take an old Brett Favre over Alex Smith any day of the week.

Green Bay Packer Brett Favre is considering coming out of “retirement.” Apparently, he’s got the “itch” to play, and he’s talked to coach McCarthy about showing up at training camp.
Utterly ridiculous. First off, you don’t get to come out of retirement if you never actually missed playing time. Yeah, Favre had a retirement press conference, but there haven’t been any games to miss. He wouldn’t be returning, because he never really left in the first place.
Secondly, what the hell are the Packers thinking to have him back? It’s time to move on. Go with Aaron Rodgers. If he sucks, give Favre a call. But this is a giant distraction just waiting to happen. Frankly, I feel bad for Rodgers either way. He’s got to have a shot sometime, right? Fuck. Just when you think a guy might actually ride off into the sunset with a teary-eyed goodbye, he’s got to go and grandstand.

Former Oakland Raiders great and current Alabama Crimson Tide broadcaster Kenny “The Snake” Stabler went down for his third DUI charge early Sunday morning. The ex-quarterback was picked up on Alabama 59, and now has bail set at $1,000. So haggard…
