Brett Favre says he ready to return to the NFL as soon as Sunday. At a press conference on Thursday the 40 year old Favre said, “I’m ready for a comeback. But only under the right circumstance. Upon evaluating the thirty two teams I think the two that would fit me best are the Colts and Saints. I’d like to start immediately. Granted, both of these franchises have top quarterbacks but I’ve won a Super Bowl while the Saints are going with someone untested in a big game. As for the Colts, Manning has played stellar ball for a dozen years, he is certainly due for a bad game. Think about it, who wouldn’t want to see their favorite gun-slinger back in the saddle?”
 
He then paused and turned to the crowd, “I’ll level with you. I really want to play in a Super Bowl. I’d do anything. I’ll be a ref. If that gets me to the game, I’ll be a ref. Maybe if there’s time, the Colts and Saints will let the refs play too. And they could officiate. We could rotate. It would be great. Please? I promise I’ll go away if you let me do this. I want to be in a Super Bowl. Oh dear God, I want to be in a Super Bowl.”
 
He stopped. Sobbed for a while. And tried once more. “Okay. Fine. I understand. The Colts and Saints earned their way in, but what if something unforeseen were to happen to the Saints or Colts. Say one of
the buses doesn’t show up to the game. They mysteriously vanish. Who knows? Hypothetically, I think my team would be more than happy to serve as an alternate. I mean, I’d hate to see the Super Bowl canceled. Just saying. If something happens to the Saints or Colts, consider whatever team that I played for most recently ready to go.
