Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

Ridiculously True

I just thought I'd share this ridiculous little tidbit from a Michael Rosenburg column on SI.com about Brett Favre's "retirement".

Since the end of the 2007 season: Favre has more retirements (three) than the Detroit Lions have wins (two).

 At first, I chuckled when I read that.  Then I thought about it for a minute.  Then I felt like crying.  In the wise words of James Hetfield... "Sad but true".  Thoughts?

hey

I like being the underdog this year shit will just have to suprise the nfl

by sandvet on Aug 3, 2010 6:26 PM EDT reply actions  

And after this year

We will have more wins that his comebacks. And something else about favre he also has more retirements than he does SB rings. And if it had not been for A ST player from Michigan he would have as many rings as the Lions had wins 2 years ago.!!!!! Put that in your Rosenburg pipe and smoke it!

See the nowhere crowd
Cry the nowhere tears of honor

Like twisted vines that grow
That hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already
Faded prima donna

Fortune, fame
Mirror vain

Drift away
Fade away
Little tin goddess

Do you really want to hurt me?

I think that is a Metallica song. Or it could have been when James did his solo album.

Too bad we don't have a picture of our new front 4 yet

Cause Dave (MEGADEATH’s) “In my darkest hour” would be a great song for the opposing QB’s of the NFC north.
