Just having fun on there: Brett Favre is finally on Twitter

Found March 02, 2012 on Sportress of Blogitude: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Brett Favre
TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings

Via Sportress Of Blogitude:

Oh, glorious day. It’s nice to know that things have slowed down enough for him to find the time to authorize one of his lackeys to register a Twitter account for him. I eagerly look forward to the many interesting updates from the Ol’ Gunslinger about how the John Deere lawnmower is running and how the most recent game of touch football on a muddy field played out.

Also: I love his Twitter profile bio: Father, Husband, Retired NFL quarterback.

He’s really retired, kiddos. No one lies in their Twitter bio, you know.
