Favre Adding to His Legend (Wizbang Sports)

In Green Bay's 14-7 loss to the NY Giants Brett Favre hit his head hard in the third quarter. He left the game only to come back a few plays later. On fourth down he threw a touchdown pass to Javon "Sky" Walker. Here's the clincher: Favre wasn't suppose to be in the game. The three-time MVP didn't get doctor's clearance. He came up to Mike Sherman and told him he was "ready to go." Later, Sherman admitted he made a mistake.

Given Obama's recent drop in the polls, and the continued resistance on the part of some Clinton supporters to swing behind Obama, this wouldn't hurt Obama in my view. Maybe Biden will step in as Secretary of State.
