    Adding Brett Favre to NBC's team would be a touchdown

    Brett will probably get back on the golf course again, and maybe do that a lot. A few years ago a guy I know who is a frequent golfer was at the driving range at Canebrake Golf Club, in Hattiesburg, and lo and behold he noticed that Brett was right next to him, driving golf balls. He finally got...

    Favre is the best in the business (foxsports.com)

    Here's an article on Brett from today's Jackson, MS, Clarion-Ledger, by Rick Cleveland, who has covered Southern Miss games on and off for years [his dad was sports info director at Southern Miss some years ago]...

    Koren Robinson and Will Blackmon returing kicks

    I have thought the Pack has been deficient in the return game for years. The Saints cut one of the best, Michael Lewis, and I can't find that anyone has picked him up. If he is healthy, he's better than anyone the Packers have or have had for a number of years. Plus, he can help at WR, though...

    He's Baaa-aack!!

    Go to www.sunherald.com to read the articles on Brett coming back by the guy [Al Jones] Brett called first [after calling the team, Donald Driver, and Brett's brother Scott and mom Bonita]. If you need another reason to pull for the Colts on Sunday, at the NFC Championship game in Chicago a...

    You can go to www.sunherald.com and read the actual article that broke the story, and some related ones. That's the paper on the Mississippi Coast and Favre called writer Al Jones to tell him the story; first reporter contacted.

    Happy Birthday Brett!!

    And Brett can celebrate with his school's marching band...the Packers are bringing "The Pride of Mississippi", the Southern Miss marching band, up for a parade and the game on Sunday. So maybe someone who's at the game can post a comment on how they did. Hopefully a lot better than our...

    Brett Favre Named NFC Offensive Player Of The Week

    Brett gave Kurt Warner the nickname "Pop", as in Pop Warner football, when Kurt was in GB. Didn't stick beyond the GB training camp, obviously. And please don't say Kurt is playing like he's still in Pop Warner football; anybody can have a bad game, and he was earlier in this young season the...

    Favre prepares with prep team

    I see no reason for concern. Yes, it was high schoolers, but, again, Oak Grove is one of the premier programs in the state of MS. A top notch coaching staff, the head coach [Nevill Barr] could be a good college coach if he wanted to go that route and had the opportunity. Their top player from...

    Favre prepares with prep team

    I logged on to see if anyone had picked this story up, it was front page of the Hattiesburg American today. Oak Grove has one of the best high school teams in the state, Div. 1-A prospects each year (including the starting QB), and a great coaching staff. Plus its about 5 minutes from Brett's...

    If we land the 2nd pick do we take Bush ?

    The only way to get Bush, unless Houston passes on him, is to swap places w/ Houston, but the price might be too high [please, no "Mike Ditka/Ricky Williams" disasters, though the GM would never do that]. It would be great to get Bush, as my comment to the draft article said, for the same...
