Brett Favre on Super Bowl: Being the only show in town was a big thing for me

Sidney Rice Spent Too Much Time With Favre

For former Minnesota Vikings receiver, Sidney Rice, his first year with the Seattle Seahawks didn't go as anticipated. Playing only nine games in 2011, with less than 500 yards and only two touchdowns, many wondered if he was truly deserving of the five year, $41 Million contract he received from Seattle.

NFL Rewind Brett Favre: 3 Games, 3 INTs, 3 Retirements

Brett Favre’s Family X-Mas Photo Pretty Normal, Except For His Super-Red Face (Pic)

Only Brett Favre can get his face that red. Yeah, he probably didn’t put on sunscreen when he hopped on the ol’ John Deere to mow the back 40 of the palatial Favre estate, known by locals as the House of Gunslinger. Either that, or he’s really embarrassed about something. But all in all, it’s [...]
