Fox Sports broke the news a little less than an hour ago that Brett Favre has decided to retire. While certainly a first ballot Hall of Famer, for the last few years Favre has picked up the annoying habit of dragging out his career plans all spring and summer. There's only so many stories we can read about how he likes to mow his lawn in Mississippi in the off-season - it's the opposite of fascinating.
Since none of us are Packer fans, there will be no glowing recaps of his career here, I'm guessing that maybe, just maybe, there will be a little of this content elsewhere on the intertubes. Favre was great, as tough and durable as they come, and we wish him well. In Idiot style, we offer a few predictions of what will happen regarding Favre in the coming days:
* John Madden cries so hard gravy comes out of his eyes
* Peter King immediately leaves Afghanistan where he's visiting the troops to write 100 columns on the subject, detailing everything from the sweater Brett's dog wears to the time he swiped a pair of Brett's boxers and framed them on his wall.
* The artist known as "Aaron Rodgers" formally leaves the witness protection program.
* Wisconson experiences a cheese shortage as grieving fans binge.
* David Witthoft's parents finally pony up the money to send their kid to therapy - he's going to need it.
UPDATE: Kige is FAST to respond, and surprised.
