Favre fined, too!

New Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre has been fined $10,000 by the NFL for some sort of dirty thing he did to Houston defensive back Eugene Wilson a couple of weeks ago. Ease up, it was just for play! Okay, that doesn't sound right either. Old man Favre was playing with sore ribs and went down on Wilson at the legs for something they're calling a "crack back" move. I really can't win here, perverts!

Wilson wasn't impressed by the experienced quarterback's move. "What was that? Seriously, what was that?" Wilson had to say about the block after the game.

Favre's reply, "I will be 40 years old in October, and I was weed-eating thirteen days ago."

TMI!

The Vikings finish their preseason play tonight, and Favre is not expected to play.

Boone beats back.

Just five months after undergoing heart surgery to correct a congenital defect (that's somewhat of a birth defect for you smart ones) in his aortic valve, Houston Astros third baseman, Aaron Boone, has been reactivated from the DL after serving his rehab time in the minors. That's pretty damn snappy, if I must say so myself. His stats, mediocre, hitting a career .264 with 126 home runs and 555 RBIs.

But I don't think I'm aware of any other baseball player coming back from heart surgery and hitting the field.

Play on, player!
