HI, BRETT, LET'S GET DINNER. NO ... HEY, BRETT, FANCY RUNNING INTO YOU HERE -- WANNA HANG OUT? NO. UM, BRETT, WANNA COME OVER AND HELP ME WRITE MONDAY MORNING QB? IT'S GOING TO BE SO GREAT THAT YOU LIVE HERE TOO! I THINK I WET MYSELF: Favre to the Jets. This isn't going to work out well for either of them. The difference between the Favre you want and the Favre you don't is Greg Jennings's yards-after-catch.
What I really want to say, though, is the person who should be both happiest and most irritated is Jeff Garcia. He played well in an impossible situation in San Francisco -- following two Hall-of-Fame quarterbacks -- but never got any respect, getting shitcanned for a succession of truly awful QBs. He stepped into a tough situation in Philadelphia -- replacing an injured franchise player midway through the year -- and did nothing but save the season. He saved Jon Gruden's job in Tampa Bay with his Pro Bowl play and got rewarded with a training-camp attempt to acquire one of the most ill-fitting QBs imaginable for Tampa Bay's playbook. He even married a Playboy centerfold and still has to hear people say he's gay. That dude gets no respect.
