I didn't really have a vested interest and haven't seen a game all season, but I always watch the Super Bowl. Heck, I didn't even know Elizabeth's husband was the Seahawk quarterback (I wonder if she'll be on The View tomorrow). I thought it was a good game in that it didn't seem the announcers thought the Steelers really had a chance. I didn't really have a vested interest. I was not impressed with Stones at all. The sound was really bad.

Elizabeth's husband is the backup quarterback for the NY Giants. The Seahawk quarterback is her BIL.

Elisabeth is Matt's sister in law. Her husband is Tim, I don't know who he plays for.

I didn't have a vested interest either, I don't pay much attention to football so maybe I shouldn't even say this... but I think the Seahawks were at the losing end of some questionable calls by the referees.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday everyone! I will be happier if I find out tomorrow that I won the squares.

eta... oopies, Bob already answered the Hasselbeck thing

How come they booked the Stones? They were in Detroit, for Pete's sake! Ever hear of Motown? Stevie Wonder should have been the halftime show. The Temptations could have been great, too. Or Gladys Knight or Diana Ross or Lionel Richie. Nothin' against the Stones, but come on.

Ditto Mamie and Melfie. Total bullshit on the two touchdown calls, one on each team.

Brett says he gonna wait to see what Teddy does in free agency & the draft. Teddy won't say it publicly but he doesn't want Brett back.

Your son might not want to dance quite yet....

Raiders holding on to Collins for now

ALAMEDA, Calif. (March 5, 2006) -- The Oakland Raiders had all but parted ways with Kerry Collins on March 5 until the NFL bought them some time to reconsider the quarterback's future with the club.

The league and union surprisingly agreed to postpone free agency until March 9 to give owners a chance to consider the union's latest proposal during a meeting Tuesday in Dallas. Talks broke off earlier in the day, leaving veterans such as Collins in danger of becoming salary-cap casualties before midnight Monday, when free agency was supposed to begin...

Brett Favre has announced he will have a press conference at 7:30 am tomorrow where he is expected to give his decision on whether to return next year. It can go either way, BUT one excellent point that has been made is that it's going to be in the morning before the start of his charity golf tournament in Tunica, Mississippi. Would he want to start the day/tournament/festivities with a depressing announcement (his retirement) or would he want to start it out on a positive note? I can't see him waking up, announcing a huge life changing retirement, then getting into his charity golf thing. I'm sure a lot of the people there are his fans and what a good way it would be to announce his return- and a nice thnak you to them for attending.

He didn't say one way or the other but that the organization and he were still talking. Apparently he didn't know there was a press conference called. He wondered why all the press had come down there. lol


Yahoo Sports
TUNICA, Miss. (AP) -- Brett Favre, one of the NFL's great quarterbacks, is still unsure if he will play another year with the Green Bay Packers.

"No change. I don't know, once again," he said Saturday during a brief news conference from the site of his charity golf tournament. "I don't know why you guys wasted a trip down here. The Packers and I will make a decision at some point soon."

It was Favre, however, who scheduled the news conference, and a personal assistant to the Favre family had said a "scoop" awaited. A Packers spokesman did not immediately return a call.

The 36-year-old Favre -- whose grit, durability and cannon arm have become his trademark -- is the NFL's only three-time MVP (1995-97).

"I know people are getting impatient," he said. "But enjoy baseball right now."

Favre acknowledged that football is "in my blood," but he insisted he has not made up his mind, and he is not withholding his decision.

"No, I don't think that's fair to the Packers," he said. "If I knew one way or the other, for sure, and I wouldn't tell the Packers or not tell the media, that's unfair."

"I think the Packers have to go in a certain direction at some point," he added. "When I do know, I would tell them as soon as possible -- maybe within the next week. It has been a strain on the family as well."

Favre was joined by his agent, Bus Cook, and a representative for the Mississippi Delta casino where the tournament is being held. Wearing shorts and a golf cap, Favre concluded the news conference about an hour before playing golf. The tournament is about 400 miles from his hometown of Kiln, at the opposite end of the state.

The Southern Mississippi quarterback ranks second behind Dan Marino on the NFL's career list in touchdown passes (396), yards passing (53,615) and completions (4,678). He holds the NFL record for most consecutive starts for a quarterback with 221 (241 including the playoffs).

Favre has led the Packers to six division crowns, restoring success to one of the NFL's most famous franchises. The Packers won the 1997 Super Bowl in New Orleans, a 35-21 victory over New England, returning the Lombardi Trophy to Green Bay for the first time in 29 years.

"Maybe we don't get back to the Super Bowl, I don't know that, but I'd like to think we can compete for it," Favre said. "I want to feel like we can compete for the Super Bowl, not just say that to say it."

Last season he threw a career-high 29 interceptions and failed to throw for more than 20 touchdowns for only the second time since 1993. The Packers finished 4-12 for their first losing season since he joined the team in 1992.

"When I left after the season, yeah, it was tough to be excited about football. But it's in my blood," Favre said. "As time has passed, I have forgotten a little about the 4-12 season and think more about the good times. If I decide to come back and play, that's really what I'm deciding to come back to -- the fun."

There are concerns about the team's offensive line, which struggled last season after the departure of stalwart guards Mike Wahle and Marco Rivera to free agency. Favre also wants to make sure the Packers are going to be competitive after a dreadful last season.

Speculation about Favre's future has become an annual rite of winter in Wisconsin. He has spoken of retirement in years past, only to return.

"I'm sure I would miss it, but at some point it has to end," Favre said. "At some point, you have to give it up."

Through it all, there has been a string of family troubles. His father died in December 2003. His wife, Deanna, survived breast cancer and mourned the death of her brother in an all-terrain vehicle accident. Several members of Favre's family in Mississippi were displaced because of Hurricane Katrina.

Favre memorably threw for 399 yards and four touchdowns against the Oakland Raiders one day after his father's death.

"There are other things to do and focus on right now (besides football)," Favre said, referring to his charity. "And I say do that, because that's what I'm trying to do. I want to make the right decision, but I have other things on my plate as well."
