“JOE PATERNO IS THE BRETT FAVRE OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL”
Jeffri Chadiha on ESPN today wins the prize for asinine Brett Favre-centered rhetoric taken to a new, inaccurate, and fatheaded extreme. When discussing
“To me, Joe Paterno is the Brett Favre of college football.”
To us, peanut butter is the Brett Favre of condiments. Now, jelly is Tom Brady, because he’s smooth, but not like the Brett Favre of flowering trees, the Tulip Poplar, which is kind of like the A-Rod of small African Countries like Burkina Faso, which is nothing like Blue Diamond Rice/Almond Crackers, which are the Bret Favre of snack crackers FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE .

This is what we get for having 24 hour sports and 24 hour news stations.
There just isn’t 24 hours of news, and when anything interesting pops up, they beat it into the ground like Brodie Croyle dropping back to pass in Jordan-Hare Stadium.

The last episode of Sportscenter I watched went
Favre
Red Sox
Some other baseball team
Favre
Red Sox
Some other baseball team
etc.
I think they went to Skip Bayless at one point, too, but I probably blocked that out.

#3 – you forgot this:
At the bottom of the ESPN screen – was the FAVRE scroll – repeating over and over and over again. So even if you turned the sound down during the FAVRE ad nauseum discussion with John Clayton, you were still forced to see it in print….except if you were Jerrell Powe.

Goddammit – this is EDSBS and it must remain a Favre-free zone.
Please – this is the one place in the sports world where I haven’t heard the F—e word ad nauseum in the last few weeks.
Please dont bring that shit here.
Please?

Well, I say ESPN should just turn into the freaky
restaraunt scene
from “Being John Malkovich” and replace the word Malkovich with Farve…..maybe freek can supplant every talking head on ESPN with Farves head,
“Farve farve….farve? Farve! Farve-Farve,Farve?Farrrrvvvee….”

“That a team only three years removed from a BCS bowl appearance has a sizable percentage of their student body who would rather spend a sunny Saturday afternoon studying indoors than going to a football game.”
Um, something tells me that the term “studying” is loosely defined in Miami.

Guys, do you want to know why Brett Farve is unretiring? Or basically coming back from vacation?
To fulfill the Madden 09 Curse!
Now whether the curse hits Green Bay or Farve himself, remains to be seen…no one has ever appeared on the cover in one teams uniform, then switched teams before the start of the season.

“Et tu?” is french too. Means “And you?” which is probably the same meaning in Latin.
Stupid romantic languages and their similarities. Nice job Hannibal, way to fuck it up for everybody else. And your elephant-thru-the-alps attack had “Big Ten” written all over it.

It’s official: Miley Cyrus is the Brett Favre of television.

Doug @ 7 – I’m tempted to make an argument that “Are you being served” is more like the Gallipoli of British sitcoms… but I can’t figure out how to complete the analogy without insulting my adopted country, the Australians, PBS, for starters. I should leave comedy to the professionals. (Doug that is, not the hacks responsible for Are you being served)

Tartan69 @ 46 – don’t get me wrong, there were far far worse efforts from the BBC in the 70s – but the Mrs Slocum’s pussy jokes were wearing thin after 85 repeats during BBC strikes.
