Brett Favre may or may not be retired for real, but either way he’ll be involved with the NFL during the 2008-09 season. The latest suitors for Favre’s services come from FOX with hopes of teaming up Brett with Bradshaw. Barry Switzer gave the scoop to Scout.com which I picked up via Awful Announcing.

“Well, they’re talking to Favre,’’ said Switzer as we both attended OU’s Honorary Degree luncheon on the school’s campus. “I still think they want me involved in some way. But with Brett. … they might pair him in a segment with (Terry) Bradshaw, I don’t know. … It’s a lot of fun for me, but there’s only so much time (available) on that show. And, hey, he’s Brett Favre!’’

The country has a five-percent unemployment rate but don’t tell Brett Favre. He could have a number of quarterback jobs if he made himself available, and if he doesn’t play football he’s jumping to broadcasting.. A move I don’t like.

Everybody loves Brett Favre, and he knows more football than 99 percent of the population, but will he be able to convey that knowledge to the public in an entertaining fashion? I don’t see it. What I do see is Brett being able to tell some good football stories with TB yuckin it up in the background. That would be fun.. For a few weeks.
