RANDOM THOUGHTS

From My Head to Your Computer...

BRET FAVRE-
He is retired, until he applies for reinstatement he is still retired. SO STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!!!!

If he wants to play so badly then he will file the proper paper work to come out of retirement and put the pressure on the Packers. As for him calling the Vikings and now the Packers filing tampering charges against the Vikings, AGAIN he is retired. As long as he is retired he should be allowed to call and talk to anyone in the league that he wants to.

WNBA FIGHT-
If a fight happens in the WNBA and nobody cares about it, does it really matter?





I think everyone needs to slow down on the coverage of this fight. Think about it, this is the first time EVER that anyone is talking about the WNBA on a national stage. Everyone needs to shut up now and act like nothing happened. The more that people talk about this the more it will be shoved in our face.

DEVIN HESTER-
Devin Hester is a holdout from Bears training camp. Yes that is not a misprint, Devin Hester, the CB with 11 career tackles and a whopping two tackles last season is holding out of Bears training camp for more money.

According to an article on ESPN.com this is what Hester had to say about his currently salary, "I can't go out and play this year making $445,000. Come on, man."

I think it is a valid point, I mean, he is playing a game for 16 days a year for a living, it’s not like he is doing something like significant with his life.





Granted the kid is explosive returning the ball and in the past two years single handedly kept the Bears in games due to their inept offense, but how much more can you pay a guy that MIGHT touch the ball 2-3 times a game and only makes 2 tackles a season?

GRUMPY OLD MEN-
Can’t Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden just agree to tie for all-time wins or something? This is kinda getting ridiculous that these two guys just want to stay around for this record. Neither will admit it, but the writing is on the wall. Last week JoePa says he wants to coach “four, five, six years." And now this week Bobby Bowden comes out with this breaking news, "I'm still the head football coach." Thanks Captain Obvious! Nobody wants JoePa to be on the sidelines at Penn State for another 4 to 6 years, except maybe his wife Sue so he is at least out of her hair. Heck, I don’t think anyone at Penn State wanted him back 3 years ago, during his little slump which he rattled off a record of 26-33 from 2000 to 2004.

Let’s make a deal, you both leave us now forever and we will put both of your names in the record books…not like it matters, neither guy is catching Eddie Robinson.
