Bennigans is a trendy restaurant chain I won't miss. We lived about a half mile from one when we lived in Metairie. The food wasn't bad but it was pricey and the service was always awful. Kinda liked Steak & Ale though.
If you're the Green Bay Packers, what do you do with this guy?
Gene Wojciechowski of ESPN says:
The bottom line is this: If you believe in Rodgers as much as you say you do, you trade Favre. And it shouldn't matter where. If NFC North rival Minnesota offers the most comprehensive package, you trade him to Minnesota. If Chicago comes up with the best deal, then off to the Bears he goes. That way you get Favre's name off the roster and draft picks in your pocket. It's a win-win.
If Gene doesn't understand why that's not going to happen, he needs to go back to school and take Self-Preservation 101. Yeah, let's trade him to a team where he can hurt us more than he already has ... and in front of our fans ... twice a year. While we're "spitballing", I think the Jets have the most comprehensive package to offer. It would go something like this: We'll give you a 7th round pick in 2010 that could escalate to a 6th round pick if he plays two seasons as our starter and we'll keep him away from you unless our teams meet in the Super Bowl. Oh, and you pay the lion's share of his salary. Unfortunately for the Packers, Brett would have to approve it. If something like that doesn't present itself, I think they'll just let him report, keep him off of the field, and just eat his salary. There are no good alternatives.

Quote of the Day
What Favre didn't realize is that he didn't own the title to the throne he sat on. It was leased, just like the ones built for Montana, Elway and Starr. And when the lease is up, the throne is disassembled, turned to velvet scraps and kindling while a new, royal ass-holder is commissioned for the incoming King of Titletown.

I only got the 3X3 once. Wouldn't even attempt that one. -Rob
