2nd hockey game
Dukes of Hazzard are now 1-2 on the season after a tough 5-2 loss to Blades of Glory. I'm wearing Dan's #77 Georgia jersey, Ashley is wearing her usual Osgood Detroit jersey and Clint is wearing the Uncle Jessie jersey (he scores our first goal).

Brett Friggin' Favre!!!
As I wrapped up my summer vacation, I was deciding how best to make my flamboyant re-entry to the blogosphere. The sporting world is starting to heat back up ... the EPL kicks off in just over a week, Fantasy Football draft prep is starting to hit full speed, the Dawgs are #1 pre-season, but none of those felt quite right. Then I woke up this morning and was greeted with news which ushers in a new era of Hope and Optimism. No, I'm not talking about the upcoming Obama presidency. I'm talking about a new era for the New York Jets. But before I get ahead of myself, let's go back a few years to one of the lesser known Jets draft day tragedies:
April 20,1991 Kiln, Mississippi. Brett Favre and his family gather along with what seems like half the town to watch the NFL draft unfold. Ron Wolf is personnel director for the NY Jets, and he plans to select Favre with the 34th pick in the draft. Brett had already been passed over for two other quarterbacks and after waiting for over 6 hours, he finally receives a phone call from the Jets. The Falcons are on the clock as he hangs up the phone with the Jets and turns to his family to declare, "Atlanta doesn't take me, they're taking me."
Well .... Atlanta selects Favre, and with the next pick, the Jets select their 'quarterback of the future' Browning Nagle. Unfortunately Nagle did not work out as well as planned, so over the next decade and a half, while Favre became the most productive quarterback EVER, the Jets ran through a motley assortment of signal callers including Glenn Foley, Neil O'Donnell, Vinny Testeverde, Brooks Bollinger, Jay Fiedler, Noodle Pennington (jk, chad I still love u), and most recently Kellen Clemens.
All of that changes today ... after waiting over 17 years, the Jets have finally gotten their 'quarterback of the future'. Brett Favre may be past his prime, but when he steps under center on Sept 7 to take his first snap for the Jets, he will instantly become the best quarterback I have ever seen play for my beloved Jets.
When I went to sleep last night, the jets were an after thought at best, a joke at worst. I woke up this morning to a constant stream of Jets information, optimism and enthusiasm. The Jets may not win it all this year, but today, it feels like we already have.
As Steve Mariucci once said, "It was almost divine intervention, but then you just sit back and say, no it's not, it's Brett Favre."
