Brett Favre:
TD:0 INT:1
you are hereby awarded one Favregnugen award! ENJOY THE SPOILS!!!!

You can stop watching it after about 2:15, when Brett-Boy's mercifully brief cameo comes to a welcome end. Or you can stop watching aroung 0:13, just before Brett-O opens his mouth and smears his incomprehensible Gulf Coast drawl all over the scene. Or you can skip ahead to 2:20 and just watch the Jonathan Richman parts, 'cause he rules. Or, for God's sake, you don't have to watch it. Save yourself.
I think we can safely conclude that Brett-Brett is equally skilled at both acting and figuring out which team he's supposed to be throwing the ball at. Other than that, the less said about this ignominious moment in the annals of celluloia the better.
Our hero stands at a crossroads. To his right, the high road, comprised of six steps, six steps to glory. And on his left, the low road, a mere four steps to ignominy, so close its scent tickles his nose hairs.
Ladies and gentleman, I present for your consideration one Brett Lorenzo Favre, long-standing employee of the publicly-owned Green Bay Packer organisation of the National Football League. At some point during this upcoming season, Mr. Favre may have an opportunity to throw his seventh touchdown pass, bringing his career total to 421 and placing him alone atop the list of this most admirable statistic, just beyond the 420 achieved by CBS-TV's own Daniel Constantine Marino, Jr.
And at some other point during this season, you can be assured that Mr. Favre will certainly, for the fifth time, sail an errant pass directly into the arms of the opposition, giving him a career total of 278 interceptions, also an all-time high, surpassing the dubious achievement of George Frederick Blanda. The interception has become something of a specialty for Mr. Favre in his twilight years; he's thrown 50 in the past two seasons alone, desperately grasping for Blanda's record.
Join us as we follow Farve's pursuit of these two hallowed highwater marks in the history of our great game called football. Will he reach both? Will he at last sustain a serious injury? Which will he reach first?
