In the Race

Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in the Red Queen's Race...

Hey Brett....YAWN

Yeah, it's really getting tiring.

Not only that, it's a distraction to other teams now....

Does that seem right?

It doesn't seem right to me.

You retired Brett...now you're back...just get on with your life...


"In Tampa, the Buccaneers -- and starter Jeff Garcia -- wonder if Favre will be taking snaps for them by the end of the week.

Then again, the New York Jets can envision Favre back in green, only a slightly different shade of it.

And in Minnesota, the Vikings haven't entirely written off the possibility of their old nemesis somehow forcing his way onto the Vikings. After all, can the Packers really say they don't want him and still dictate where he can't play?

Throughout this whole affair, Favre rumblings -- real or simply rumored -- also have been felt in Washington, Carolina, Chicago and Kansas City.

Even in cities where the starting quarterback is cemented in place, people are keeping one eye on the Favre situation -- or trying like crazy to avert their eyes.

"To be honest, I can't even turn on 'SportsCenter' anymore," Cincinnati's Carson Palmer said today on the Jim Rome Show. "It's just nonstop coverage of that, it keeps changing and you can't keep up with it. It's getting frustrating and annoying as a fan trying to keep up with what's going on."

We in the media have certainly done our share of obsessing on this bizarre reality show, but Favre and agent Bus Cook have done little to douse the speculation, dripping out information like a leaking faucet and sending us scurrying this way and that.

How would it feel to be a productive veteran such as Garcia right now, knowing Favre could be on his way to claim the Buccaneers job? Or, for that matter, how would it feel to be Tampa's Brian Griese or Chris Simms, New York's Chad Pennington or Kellen Clemens, or Minnesota's Tavaris Jackson?"
