Favre Rally a Bust
A rally outside Lambeau field with fans supporting Brett Favre returning from retirement to lead the team got off to a promising start as 20,000 fans assembled with signs and jerseys supporting the all-time great QB. But, then inexplicably, about 20 minutes into the planned 2 hour rally, the fans all changed their mind.
A clearly miffed Brett Favre said, "I don't get how you can come out here and be all gung ho that 'yeah I'm supporting Brett Favre' and then all of a sudden change your mind and expect me to still welcome you with open arms and accept your millions of dollars next season."
Reportedly, the tide started to turn when a replay of Favre's costly interception in the NFC Championship Game last year which cost the Packers a chance to go to the Super Bowl was shown by the Packers on the giant Jumbotron outside Lambeau Field. It was part of a 20 minute montage of costly Favre interceptions over the last 5 years.
In a related story, Dan Marino showed up at Dolphins Stadium yesterday and was reportedly irked that his locker had been cleaned out. The Dolphins offered to restore his locker and give him a spot on the team but only as a backup to Don Strock.
