A Lot On the Line for Rex Ryan on Sunday

Sure he's a first time head coach with a rookie quarterback and rookie running back that is trying to win the AFC title and go to the Super Bowl. But that's not all that's at stake on Sunday. Nathan's, the hot dog company says it will reserve a seat for Rex at the 2010 Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island on July 4th if he takes the Jets to the Super Bowl.

J-E-T-S, hot dogs, hot dogs, hot dogs!

Dear Brett Favre: Get Over It.

[Gonna take a pass on the obvious "Here we go again" statement]
[EDIT: This was a complete coincidence. Awesome! Yet totally unsurprising]

ESPN's Ed Werder reports that Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress is going to meet with aging aged quarterback Brett Favre later this week in the ever-mysterious "undisclosed location" to discuss the possibility of Favre coming out of retirement and playing for the Vikes this year. The New York Jets released Favre about a week ago, promptly after taking future bust Mark Sanchez in the first round of the NFL Draft.

Well this is a stupid story. Guess what Favre, you're not getting any younger, and just like any other old guy, your decision making skills (on and -- as this story proves -- off the field) have been rapidly declining. Give it up, please. If not for your sake, then for mine. I don't know whether this story is more annoying or more sad. I'm gonna say more annoying. Just go away Old Yeller. Don't make us break out the rifle.
