Where in the World is Favre? (or “ESPN Sounds The Alarm”)
The official Brett Favre fanboy network reported alerted sports fans this morning that John Madden’s favorite-son-he-never-had was absent from Green Bay’s Monday morning voluntary workout. Though it was unclear why he was missing from practice, McCarthy and the Packers’ offensive staff have been limiting Favre’s reps so as to not wear him out this offseason. Interestingly enough, the “story” appeared as nothing more than a one-line blurb in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s 6/5/06 Packers Notes, which noted that Favre was instead doing some training in the weight room.
Thank God for ESPN and their keenly-prioritized sports journalism. I’d like to propose another network arm for the sports giant to launch in 2007: ESPN 4: All The Favre News You Can Handle.
This just in: Favre had a Cajun chicken sandwich and iced tea for lunch today.
