ESPN Desperately Trying to Start some Brett Favre Fever

I don’t know what is going on at ESPN, but they are desperate for some Brett Favre Fever or they have nothing to do with Rachel Nichols so they want to send her out to Favre’s front lawn.

In what might be the most ridiculous story of the day, ESPNChicago.com reporter Michael C. Wright is reporting:

The Chicago Bears’ dire situation at quarterback hasn’t pointed the club in the direction of future Hall of Famer Brett Favre, but a source familiar with the quarterback said Favre would listen if the Bears made a pitch.

Ok, so what you are telling me is that the Bears’ aren’t interested in Brett Favre BUT that someone who is “familiar” with Brett Favre said he would listen to the Bears if they talked to him. WOW! Stop the flipping press.

In other breaking news, the next time someone calls Vinny Testaverde, he’ll answer the phone.
