Well, the news tonight is that Brett Favre is officially a New York Jet. The first thing that came to mind when I heard this a few minutes ago is a franchise I did in Madden NFL 07. I like to pick different teams to use in franchise mode, and I ran a franchise through about 5 years with the Jets that year. I traded for Brett Favre to rejuvenate the franchise and then drafted a young running back I imported from NCAA Football 07 from Oklahoma to be the cornerstone for the franchise.
Favre took my Jets to back to back Super Bowls and made Laveranues Coles a bona fide NFL Superstar. Randy Moss who? The Jets dominated the AFC East in my franchise, and had several memorable rivalry games with the Pats (sans Moss who was still a Raider at the time). He played for a couple of season for me before taking a back seat and retiring for real. Patrick Ramsey took over for him while I looked for a younger quarterback to fill the shoes of a legend.
How will Favre do this year as a New York Jet? Can he emulate my franchise and reheat the Jets/Pats rivalry, or will the magic be left behind in Green Bay? What do you think?

Bill CaLLLLLahan is now an assistant with the Jets, so keep him away from Favre. He has magical powers that **** the talent out of even the best players. (Being a Nebraska fan during the Callahan Error, um Era, I can discuss this with certainty.)
Good luck to Brett. I'm probably in the minority, but I thought the Packers didn't treat him very well. Sure, he jerked them around, but that doesn't mean that have the right to return the favor.
Maybe now ESPN will find something else to cover - or not.
