when you agent is also throwing you under the bus for your yearly retire from or return to the NFL saga. Check out this quote from a Men's Journal Interview of both Favre and his agent, Bus Cook.
“Brett talked to goddamned Ed Werder at ESPN, says he needs ankle surgery. Now why did he do that? I’ve got Childress calling. I’ve got reporters calling all damn morning. Goddammit, why does he have to be such a goddamned drama queen? Play, don’t play, goddamn, people are getting sick of it. I’m getting sick of it! Why does he have to talk to these people? What good does it do? Ed Werder at ESPN! What’s he ever done for anybody other than say, ‘Look, look, Mommy, I got this first, ain’t I special?’ You got problems with surgery, talk to your wife. Why talk to goddamned Ed Werder?”
The rest of the article seems to touch on a lot of stuff that you hear about Favre every offseason (retiring, Mississipi stuff, etc.). In my opinion, Favre totally redeemed himself in the interview when he told Stephen Rodrick of the Men's Journal that earlier in the day he shot two possums on his Mississipi property because they had been "acting weird" and may have had rabies. For those of you who haven't seen one in person before, just Google image "possum." They are basically gigantic rats.
