You may remember that Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers didn’t end well. There was that whole Aaron Rodgers is the guy-taking-your-job / don’t-let-the-door-hit-you-in-the-ass-on the-way-out / what-do-you-mean-you-aren’t-retiring thing. Saturday, the two former teammates were on stage to present the NFL Comeback Player of the Year Award. They had banter before the presentation:
Either Rodgers and Favre are good actors or they really do feel awkward being in one another’s presence. Sure, they had a prepared skit, but it seems like they couldn’t wait to get off the stage and be done with the event. Extra nod to Manning winning the award and adding a dash of derp into the already silly scenario.
Favre and Rodgers were photographed together later, with Favre looking about 30 years older than when he last laced them up. Must be all that dodgeball.
