Oh Sid, you old coot

Remember how last week Brett Favre allegedly said he was going to retire, but then kicker Ryan Longwell almost immediately said "He hasn't said anything of the sort". Then do you remember how his agent and everyone involved said he was going to wait for a trip to the doctor to get his ankle checked out? Remember all that?
Sid Hartman didn't. That's why he broke the news that Brett Favre will be coming back if his ankle is ok. Sid talked to Ryan Longwell to establish this. So, essentially, Sid broke news that was about a week old. Thanks Sid.
The best part is that this was also picked up on ESPN's edition of Sportscenter this morning. Unbelievable. I'm beginning to hate Favre less and less as it becomes increasingly evident that jackasses in suits will fawn over him and leap to conclusions no matter what happens, even if it happened a week ago.
