    Re: Obama, he is campaigning for a much more vital position to all Americans. Favre is simply a retired quarterback.

    Has any player ever destroyed their legacy this quickly?

    Other than Barry Bonds, I don't know if there has ever been a player this great who I just want to go away.

    HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) -- Still-retired Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre got out of bed on the left side this morning, then had a severe case of flatulence, a source close to the family said.
    According to the source Favre, whose on-again, off-again musings on his own retirement have captivated the nation in recent weeks, marveled at the smell of the flatulence.
    "He said it smells like roses. Personally, I think it smelled like ass. Especially when he waved his hand to fan it around," said the source, who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.
    Favre could later be seen riding a tractor around his Mississippi property. At one point, he stood up and scratched his crotch. After taking a moment to look around for visitors, Favre also scratched his buttocks and put his hand up to his nose. It was unclear from his reaction whether it smelled like roses or the freshly cut grass that surrounds his magnificent Hattiesburg estate, but it did bring a smile to his face.
    Later, Favre strolled around the grounds tossing a football with some neighborhood children while a golden retriever ran laps around them. Favre also had what appeared to be steak and eggs for breakfast, and a light lunch consisting of a ham sandwich and potato salad. Afterward, he was seen entering his bathroom with a USA Today tucked under his arm.
    Favre spoke to Fox News' Greta Van Susteren in his first public comments about his feud with the Packers earlier this week. Another media blitz is to follow in the coming days, agent Bus Cook said. Favre is scheduled to appear on "Larry King Live", "The Rachel Ray Show" and "The Montel Williams Show" before the end of the week.
    Although his appearance on Williams' show is expected to deal with his mid-1990s addiction to painkillers and his inspiring recovery, the Associated Press has obtained from Cook an approved list of questions for his chat with King scheduled for Friday night. Among the questions:
    • "Why is Ted Thompson being such a jerk?"
    • "Who would win in a fight -- you or Aaron Rodgers?"
    • "You play the game with such zeal and passion. What has turned you into the best quarterback ever?"
    • "Will you sign this football for me?"
    • "Don't the Packers know this could be your next-to-last comeback? Why won't they let you play them twice a year?"

    Too bad Matt Ryan already signed that big deal, that way Favre could go back to his FIRST NFL team.
