Around SBN: Dana White Announces Koscheck vs. Hendricks for UFC on FOX

Who can afford to pay Brett Favre 15 million?

Intellesting

Brett Favre is coming out of retirement and does not want to play in Green Bay.  Remember this story?

Does anyone think it might be a good idea?

Ummm...I'm gonna go with bad idea.

Not a good idea. While it does make sense in some aspects (Snyder loves big names, Zorn learned from Holmgren who coached Favre, Favre knows the West coast offense) it would hurt the team in the long run. Favre would get a big fat 2 year deal and possibly take us to the playoffs. By the time he retired…again, Campbell probably would have moved on and we would once again be looking for another QB. That would be our 18th quarterback in 16 seasons mind you. So the 5 years spent grooming Campbell is a waist and unless we think that Colt Brennan is our future it is a bad move. However, I would not be surprised at all if Snyder pursued this. I wrote a post on my blog explaining why Snyder might take a shot at signing Favre and included an excerpt from your earlier post about this topic. Check it out: www.dcsportspulse.com

It's the Zorn connection...

That’s what worries me about this.

As much as I love Brett Favre, he doesn’t move our program forward. I don’t think he can win us a Super Bowl - just my opinion, but I think we’re more than a few years removed from an SB - and so it’s really just an opportunity to tread water a little bit higher above the water line for a few years. I’d just as soon find out now, immediately, whether Jason Campbell is or is not the guy.

Go register. Or else.

Ben is on point.

I’ll be back with some posts tomorrow; I’m in a wedding later on today.

Other important acquisition

I don’t have much to add to the Favre debate, but while there has been speculation about this acquisition, there have been several other additions to the team in the form of cheerleaders. There are some great videos about them at comcastsportsnet.com.
