You know, it’s only appropriate that Brett Farve’s comeback to the NFL--is it even a “comeback” if none of us ever thought he’d really leave?--will begin in Cleveland, a city that’s well past its prime, has a few redeeming qualities, but is mostly just depressing, as the redeeming qualities only serve as a reminder of what the city could be. Indeed, if everything looked like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and if Brett Favre played every game like last year’s Patriots-Jets game, this would be a very different conversation.
Previewing Bucs-Cowboys, Browns-Vikings
Still, FOOTBALL IS BACK! In that spirit, the Daily Norseman gets you ready for today’s Vikings-Browns tilt with a fantastic preview. To which I would only add, it’s “AD” for Adrian Peterson, not “AP.” “AD” stands for “All Day” which makes it an awesome nickname, “AP” might as well be “Reuters,” and besides, it’s the least creative nickname ever. This is not up for debate.
Also, if you’re an American, there’s an approximately 20% chance you’re a Cowboys fan. In that case, check out Blogging the Boys’ comprehensive two part preview. Though if you’re familiar with Byron Leftwich’s professional track record, any preview that goes beyond “Leftwich is starting” may be superfluous. Then again, “Wade Phillips is coaching,” so who knows?
