Brett Favre is in a field, covered in oil in right now

The old gunslinger is having a hell of an afternoon.

Brett Favre is a busy man, or perhaps more aptly a busy farmer. Unfortunately this week hasn’t been too kind to the old gunslinger, who’s having a few problems with some pesky equipment.

Favre was scheduled to appear on sports radio in Sacramento on Monday, until this happened.

So the hosts rescheduled, picked a new time and then ...

BRETT FAVRE WITH OIL ALL OVER HIS BODY. Good luck getting that image out of your head.

Poor Brett. Dude’s just out there in a Mississippi field somewhere all hot, bothered and covered in motor oil. It’s unlikely we’ll ever get a photo of what really happened, so here’s an artist’s rendering.
