Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre, aka Mr. Interception, talked the other day. Some interpreted his whining as a signal that Sunday’s game will be his last in the NFL. Brett even wondered aloud if the Packers really want him to return. They insist they do. Doctor S has to admit that watching a future Hall of Famer throw 28 interceptions (so far) is entertaining, but it might not be the best way to run a football team. (Favre hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass since Thanksgiving.) Meanwhile, at least one blogger says Favre is a publicity addict and wishes that he would just shut up. He’s not the only one.
Give It Up, Mr. Interception
