AF-1: After Favre Day 1


Some notes on the day after the funeral:

The Vegas odds for the Packers winning the Super Bowl before Favre: 14-1. The odds after No. 4: 20-1.

The odds for Favre-successor Aaron Rodgers:

His total over/under yardage total for 2008-09: 3,250

Over/under for TD: 19

Over/under for INT: 15

Other misc. notes from the day... I sat down with Nicolas (aka McLovin) last evening and talked to him about Favre's retirement. It went something like this:

Dad: Nicolas, Brett Favre decided that he wasn't going to play football anymore.

Nicolas: Why?

Dad: Well, he felt that he was too old. When you get older it's tougher to do some things.

Nicolas: Is he gonna die now?

Dad: Well, I don't think so. He's daddy's age, you know.

Nicolas: Is it 'cause he's too fat?

Dad: Huh?

Editor's note: Nicolas wanted to know if Brett could play for the Gophers. If not that, then maybe he could coach his team when he's able to play next fall.

Keegan appears over Favre. He wants to see "Roger Aarons" play.
