Piecing It All Together

There was way too much going on this weekend that I couldn't even gather my thoughts to create legible sentences so I compiled a list of comments/questions from the last few days.

I'm neither a Brett Favre fan or a hater but I was pondering this question, Does he pass your litmus test as a future first ballot hall of famer should? I'm not even taking into account his post Packer career. Of all the greats from staubach, to marino, to elway...would Favre crack your top 5, 10, 20 as an answer to the following statement:

If I had to pick one qb to make ONE throw in a game it would be ______.
If I had to pick one qb to make ONE drive to win the game it would be ______.
If I had to pick on qb to win me a lifetime supply of Wranglers...wait, that would be Favre.

Is there or has there ever been another player such as Favre in any sport whose greatest asset makes them so great and so terrible at the same time?

Upon hearing that Merriman assaulted Tela Tequila I immediately assumed he did it. I was further convinced after hearing his good Samaritan rant in which he stated "I just wanted her to stay with me until I could get her a safe ride home." I then said ninja please when I heard someone with the last name of "Tequila" opened there mouth and state they don't drink which is about as believable as somebody telling me John Goodman has never eaten a whole bucket of chicken alone.

What exactly has to happen for a General Manger to make a requirement that all players sign a contract that says "I will not be on the cover of madden even if they pay me $1M". I think Fitzgerald took out an insurance policy on this season after seeing Polamalu bite the dust.

So, when your long snapper is able to audible to a fake punt on 4th and 12 from your own 30 yard line when you are only up by 2....should you be upset when someone questions how the 52nd man on a 53 man roster has so much power?

Its nice to see Jay Cutler cite Brett Favre rule 1a: If nobody is open, just throw the ball as hard as you can towards somebody and see what happens. Add his performance with Urlacher being out for the year and you have the potential for the quickest abandoning of a superbowl bandwagon pick ever!

Note: Special thanks to Adrian Peterson and Drew Brees for single handedly winning week 1 for fantasy teams across the nation.

Serena lashing out at the side judge was funny to me but left me with questions. Did she not think her words would be picked up by the boom mic?...meaning you wouldn't be able to deny what you said? Does she not think most asian women under 5 feet would be intimidated by a 6 foot black woman looks like she gives me workout tips (you see her shoulders?!)? Does she not think saying "I would stuff this tennis ball down your throat" doubles as a death threat?
-I wonder if Jamie Foxx still wants to be her tennis ball.

This perhaps is the most questionable thing I've ever said....but can we petition the NFL to limit the amount of SUPER slow motion HD replays during the game? The amount of man jiggle on my screen during these things makes me want to attempt to swallow my own tongue.

Week 2 Picks: Atl, Minn, N.O., Wash, G.B., Tenn, Oak, N.E., Jax, Buff, Sea, Pitt, Balt, Cle, Dal, Indy
Last Week: 12-3
Overall: 12-3

On another note: I was taught a lesson this weekend that was not wanted, SHOULD not have been needed, but very much recieved and I never thought it would happen to me. I thankfully walked away from this and I don't do public service announcements but hopefully this serves as a small reminder of the outcome of bad decision making.
