So if a comet lands on Green Bay Packers’ new QB Aaron Rodger’s head, would Brett Favre step up and take his place? It looks like it could be a possibility after Favre disclosed he’s enticed by the idea of returning to the Packers if Aaron Rogers would succumb to injury. The three-time MVP retired in tears last month, but who the hell cares about that? Life can be a bore when you’re relegated to weekend bbq’s and perusing the internet for your own highlight reels.

“Yeah, I can probably be up there doing that and playing, but again, I don’t know. It’s only speculating. I think the world of that team. I had a lot of fun, not only this year, but over my career.” But if Aaron Rodgers went down with an injury?

“Aaron has fallen into a great situation,” Favre said. “And if that opportunity presented itself and they did call, it would be tempting. And I very well could be enticed do it.” Favre understands the kind of challenge he would face should he opt to go back to the NFL after ending his record-setting 17-year career. And he made it clear he is not changing his mind at this time.

If this wasn’t standard procedure for athletes these days, then we’d roll our eyes and curse out loud for our roommate to hear “Fuck, I knew it with this guy.” But, really folks. It can’t be that hard to living the life as a retiree, can it?
