    Like I said elsewhere, I’ll believe it when the regular season starts and he’s not on a roster.

    PS, this post definitely needs the “terrible quarterbacks” tag.

  2. whowillsexmutombo? Says:

    Well, this post just re-defined “emotional roller coaster.”

  3. Otto Man Says:

    I’ll believe he’s really retired once he’s pronounced dead.

  4. ElGatoCocaina Says:

    Peter King must be devastated. Favre told his agent and Ed Werder before him. Beware of fat men with lattes falling from buildings in Montclair, NJ.

  5. Nimby Says:

    Land, prepare to be worked.

  6. poop Says:

    Well, like most of America, I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the conclusion of Favres’ Retirement 2: Favre Harder.

  7. Colts and Hoosiers Fan Says:

    So who do you think the Jets are gonna trade him to before camp opens?

  8. Reggie Bush's Pimp Says:

    I’m comfortable in retiring and coming back….I’m comfortable with providing daily hate for most of America…I’m comfortable in Wrangler…

  9. Otto Man Says:

    Beware of fat men with lattes falling from buildings in Montclair, NJ.

    Nah, when Peter King decides to off himself, it’s going to be death-by-gluttony. Think of the first victim in “Se7en,” but with frappucinos.

  10. Animal Mother Says:

    Who’s this Brett Fav-rah you speak of? And why should I give a shit?

    /heads back into cave

  11. Nate Newton's van Says:

    Shit, he’s already done the retirement thing. Give death a try this time, Brett.

  12. Slothrop Says:

    I heard that Favre was picked off when he forced his retirement into triple coverage.

  13. Warthog Says:

    I prefer to think of Peter King ending it all with a shooting spree at a hotel chain screaming about coffe flavored water and cheap shampoo.

    /Most enjoyable travel note of the week evah.

  14. LaFavre's Next Retirement Says:

    I’m, I’m – so broken up! I may have to retire my screen name! I’m going to my deer blind to think about it for a month or two. Maybe I’ll work the land. Please don’t make a big deal about this. I need time.

  15. Warthog Says:

    make that coffee – DAMN

  16. ElGatoCocaina Says:

    @Otto Man @Warthog: Now here’s a draft I can get into–the Peter King death draft.

  17. Punch Rockgroin Says:

    That sound you heard was the universe imploding.

    You didn’t hear it?

  18. Mike Lupica Says:

    But what about the blowjobs from Rachel Nichols? Favre, how can you give that up!

  19. broncos fan Says:

    Wait, I’m getting deja vu or something

  20. jackin'4beats Says:

    There will be a whole lot less dick sucking in the booth next season with Bretty boy now retired. Cue the 24 hour ESPN loop of the gunslinger in action, just out there having fun.

  21. Westbrook Is My Anti-Drug Says:

    @ Mike Lupica

    I don’t think he’ll miss those as much as he misses the ones from Tony K, Peter King, Gene Wocjiekchowski (sic) and other various members of the media

  22. marion barber's toe Says:

    bretty and pk are going to be tony dungy’s first intervention

  23. StuBone Says:

    Brett reminds me of the chicken fight from Family Guy. Just when you think Peter has killed the damn thing, they pull the joke out and do it all over again.

  24. StuScottBooyahs Says:

    That defines clutch retirement

    Favre is like concrete cyanide

  25. Sundayhop Says:

    Haha, Favre to retire. All he cost the Jets and Mangini was the low low price of crashing out of the playoffs, Eric Mangini’s job, and Mangini’s baby’s name!

    Good thing the Jets are in good shape with Kellen Clemens ready to step in as the starter…..

  26. TF88 Says:

    Farve’s reign of terror in the NFL has now come to an end.

    New York Jets, you just got gun slung……..hard!

  27. Otto Man Says:

    There will be a whole lot less dick sucking in the booth next season with Bretty boy now retired.

    Nope, it’ll be the exact opposite. Without Brett sucking it up in real time, the announcers will be free to reminisce about his wildly exaggerated Glory Days and complain constantly how we’ll never see his likes again.

    “Well, one fella came close to perfecting the QB position. Went by the name of Brett. Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel: cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red, like the fires of Hell!”

  28. throwbot Says:

    time for ol’ double possum to hang em up.

  29. WhatWouldPurpleJesusDo Says:

    Grittiest retirement ever

  30. Slothrop Says:

    If only there was a new story the media could latch on to, say the return of a once bright star felled by injury. Oh, if only. It would be glorious, I tells ya.

  31. Ryan the Intern Says:

    Did you see the video of him trying to make his decision? Powerful stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_GIOceRiAU

  32. chris Says:

    so like a chump i turned on sportscenter to try and see the end of the Cavs and Pacers game, which i hear was pretty interesting, and i am immediately subjected to non-stop farvarro coverage. hey brett, kill yourself. and WWL, fuck you.

  33. EatingSuzyKolber Says:

    gold jacket, green jacket, who gives a shit? maybe now Ray Ray will stay in b.more!

  34. Ben Says:

    R.I.P. Now which QB will the media obsess over?
    My guesss is Roethisberger. Except, unlike Favre, he’s actually kinda good. I even heard Al Michaels say during the Super Bowl how much fun “Ben” was having out there.

  35. The Virgin Connie Swayle Says:

    That sound you heard was the collective tears drop of DBs and safeties who can no longer pad their INTs with gifts from the gunslinger.

  36. Jizzthrasher Says:

    I’m in class and I laughed rather loudly at this headline. Now everyone thinks I find Appollonius’s Conics very funny.

  37. StuScottBooyahs Says:

    “Well, one fella came close to perfecting the QB position. Went by the name of Brett. Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel: cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red, like the fires of Hell!”

    That’s not true. Everyone knows Brett Favre was an eight foot two ton monster who could palm a medicine ball.

  38. poop Says:

    I can’t wait for the first time Brett decides to visit the MNF booth and Tony Kornheiser gets fired for masturbating on the air. That way, at least, some good will come of this whole thing. Unil they replace Kornheiser with Brett Favre.

  39. Concussion Says:

    Now, we’ll have Peter King drinking too many lattes to death, but what about the real victim. Favre’s oldest fan, Mr. John Madden. What’s he going to do, death by Outback and Turducken?

  40. Boatdrinks Says:

    I am with Otto, they will immediately start a petition underground on who will replace Favre, with lashings of Favre love and then flame wars between those that say present QB’s are as good, and old geezers who say Favre was the best.
    We will all of course cry, in the fetal position, after drinking heavily. And commenting of course.

  41. Otto Man Says:

    Actually, Madden has been dead for years. The gutteral noises he makes are just the sounds of gas escaping his many, many folds.

  42. dAndy Says:

    Que post of Brett speaking in the Favrarian cajun language you can only understand when stoned.

  43. foxxy brown Says:

    @ Otto — nope. actually, Ol’ Brett’s the king of the harpies! KING OF THE HARPIES!!!!

  44. StuScottBooyahs Says:

    Actually, Madden has been dead for years. The gutteral noises he makes are just the sounds of gas escaping his many, many folds.

    Frank Caliendo does a hilarious impersonation of those folds.

  45. Slothrop Says:

    Oh sweet Jesus, PK already has the expected column up. Here’s a gem: “many of you don’t believe [Favre's retired], and won’t believe it, until August rolls around and Favre is a a 39-year land baron in Sumrall, Miss.”

    Now he’s a fucking land baron? I thought he worked the land. Tell me, Pete, did your recent trip to see slave quarters make you even the slightest bit aware that being a ‘land baron’ in Mississippi has some, shall we say, negative connotations. God he’s dumb.

  46. Otto Man Says:

    Ol’ Brett’s the king of the harpies! KING OF THE HARPIES!!!!

    Bretty-boy hasn’t been able to cut it, man-wise, for some time, not that any woman would want the stench of gin and sour defeat pressed against her.

  47. Nimby Says:

    He buys land, works it for a while, is eventually scared off the land by a developer in a scary ghost costume, and then returns to the NFL.

  48. Cross the goal leinart Says:

    so is Kellen Clemens the new Aaron rodgers?

  49. Pipples Says:

    Yeah, see you in June when he tries to use ESPN yet again to engineer a move to the Vikings again. He still needs to get his revenge on Ted Thompson.

  50. foxxy brown Says:

    @Otto — i <3 that episode above all others over the past 20 years

  51. Michael Irvin's Seniority Says:

    Apparently, it was Peter King who talked Farvey into going to the Jets:

    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/peter_king/02/11/favre/index.html?cnn=yes

    King says: I told him, “Why don’t you at least give the Jets a chance? Maybe it won’t come to anything, but you don’t want to look back some day and say, ‘I should have given the game one last try.’ ”

    Watch my reality show. Seniority.

  52. StuScottBooyahs Says:

    @Slothrop: The serfs will be so glad to see him again. Now they can have food!

  53. Westbrook Is My Anti-Drug Says:

    My guesss is Roethisberger. Except, unlike Favre, he’s actually kinda good.

    Haha, that was funny. I needed a good laugh.

  54. Clancy's Bar & Gorilla Says:

    hm I’m betting on Farve II-Electric Bogaloo
    on second thought, just die

  55. The Hammer is My Penis Says:

    “Land, prepare to be worked.”

    And fun, prepare to stop being had out there.

  56. Mike D Says:

    Brett Favre’s zombie would still be a douchebag

  57. Fletch Lives Says:

    “I’ll believe that when me shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbert.”

    hasn’t anyone learned their lesson the last 2 years?

  58. jackin'4beats Says:

    When Favre goes to the Vikings and plays worse than Tarvaris Jackson, can we get invites to Drew’s funeral? I’ve never been to a closed casket service after someone literally blows their brains out after going on a mass killing spree.

  59. Reggie Bush's Pimp Says:

    Favre going to the Vikings = source of incredible comedy for KSK next year (although the acid reflux Drew would get would be epic).

  60. HiJeffinition Says:

    BRETT FAVRE IS DEAD!

    . . . DEAD TIRED OF ALL THE TALK ABOUT HIS RETIREMENT!

  61. Phil Simms' Anti-Steeler Ass Tattoo Says:

    Boy Jim, I’ll tell ya, I did not think Brett would hang ‘em up this year. He still throws the ball so HARD! Apparently, Ben Roth…Ro… Big Ben will be celebrated as the newest gunslinger even though he averages around 150 yards per game on a good day and loses most games in which he throws more than 25 times. Also, he’s a hermaphrodite, Jim.

  62. John Daly's Hangover Says:

    Could you assholes be anymore jealous of the man. Good family, hot wife, SB ring, MVPs (plural), money, money, and more money and lets not forget the most sincere admiration of non-other than Peter fucking King. I think it must really suck hard being Brett. Really fucking A.

  63. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    All right! You know, lately I’ve been thinking “I haven’t seen a sappy bullshit Brett Favre segment on ESPN in days.”

  64. Rhymes With Salmon Says:

    @ John Daly’s Hangover: I love how everyone mistakes “hate” for “jealousy”. I’m pretty sure this is just pure hate: hate that he pissed off his old team by “un-retiring” and acting like he should have been welcomed back with open arms, hate that he decided to play for the Jets for one pointless (and playoff-less) season leaving them twisting in the wind at season’s end, hate that he really just did it for the media attention, hate how ESPN fellates him on a daily basis . . .

    You get the idea.

    Personally, I loved how he gave J-E-T-S! fans false hope, and he went down slingin’!

  65. John Daly's Hangover Says:

    @RhymesWithSalmon: You obviously are seeing it from the side of a “fan” who watches espn and takes them seriously. ESPN has done Favre a greater disservice than anything. It seems that some folks following this “saga” haven’t been following this from day one when once Favre wanted back and then the quote ” train left the station”-Coach McCarthy. What the Packers did to dissuade Favre from playing for them by first offering him a buy out then hiring fucking Ari Fleischer (jew fans applaude) to spin this shit after they essentially kicked his ass out speaks in spades to what is really at the heart of this issue and that is the ego-maniacal attitude of Ted Thompson and fellow management. TT and MM will both be on their asses next year if their record doesn’t improve. Then again they will scapegoat their new 3-4 defense on being their hang up next year, buying them time to scout new positions elsewhere. Take it to the bank.

    Good for Favre for sticking it out one more year and bringing the Jets a much needed winning record. Woody Johnson are the Jets main problem not a QB.

    /continue hating…..

  66. Michael Irvin's Seniority Says:

    You know, it’s not that I hate Brett Favre so much as I hate his fans. They simply enjoy drinking his cum too much.

  67. Needs More Cheerleaders Says:

    If the fucker ever were to die, that would automatically become the greatest National Holiday ever. Like ten times the fourth of july.

  68. John Daly's Hangover Says:

    I’m feeling a lot of misplaced PK hate here.

  69. ACMEsalesrep Says:

    @John Daly’s Hangover:

    Brett Favre, 2008: 22 TD, 22 INT, 3472 yds, 81.0 rating
    Chad Pennington, 2008: 19 TD, 7 INT, 3653 yds, 97.4 rating

    Yeah, Pennington-to-Favre was a huge upgrade.

  70. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    A TYPICAL FAVRE FANS’ RESPONSE TO THE 2008 STATS:

    But you have to, uh, look BEYOND the numbers…uh, ah, INTANGIBLES!…And, uh, LEADERSHIP!…He’s a GUNSLINGER! HE’S HAVING FUN OUT THERE!…THROWBACK…His Dad died and then Brett had a great game! His wife is a cancer-survivor! He mows his own lawn in Kiln, Miss…He tells his team “I love you guys!” in the huddle…Gritty…Determined…Defines clutch!

    /Wheezes heavily throughout
    //Has fifth heart attack
    ///Revives himself with home defibliator kit kept in living room

  71. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    Well, “defibrillator” anyway.

    The point is that if you’re a Favre fan, you’re probably also morbidly-obese. (See Packers, fans of; King, Peter; Madden, John)

  72. BRETTS CROTCH Says:

    you and http://www.drivewaysitups.com have pretty much the same opinion of the guy

    interesting.

  73. Phil Simms Anti-Steelers Ass Tattoo Says:

    @ Rhymes

    Phil Simms: I’m…I’m jealous…

  74. Duke of Madness Says:

    @John Daly’s Hangover: This is a bit, right? You’re not really that fucking stupid, are you?

  75. John Daly's Hangover Says:

    @ Duke of Madness: In all honesty I do hope Brett stays gone this time. But on the same token the whole “I hate player X because sports commentator X hugs his nuts” is just as played out and stale as Brett’s retirement seesaw act. Montana did the same thing but I wouldn’t expect most of the viewers on this site were privy to those days. Plus Montana wouldn’t have dreamed of working the land the way Favre will once he’s back on the farm.

    /looks to the future and predicts Brett Favre signature series garden tools.

  76. Goodell is Failing Says:

    Ed Werder must me the happiest man on the planet. ESPN will now run complete 24-hr per day coverage of the Cryboys without any of that pesky Favre bits every 30 seconds
