What’s ESPN thankful for this holiday season? Not only does the network get to force Tim Tebow and his insufferable hype train down our collective gullets (I’m looking at you Skip Bayless), but thanks to a rash of injured quarterbacks, they’ve again started beating the decomposing corpse that is Brett Favre’s football career. According to what Deadspin labels as the “lamest scoop ever,” Favre would talk to the Bears if they gave him a ring. “A source familiar with the quarterback said Favre would listen if the Bears made a pitch,” reports ESPN. No doubt the source is rock solid. Who could even make this shit up? It’s highly unlikely ESPN would listen to Favre’s barber, tractor repairman, or the 83-year-old biddy that waited in line behind him at the Piggly Wiggly. That would just be flat-out ridiculous.
