NFL: Hedging on Brett

Did anyone seriously think we'd get through a week of the NFL preseason without a few Brett Favre comeback rumors? I didn't think so.

Farve, as far as we know, has no intention of coming out of retirement again, but that didn't keep Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano from leaving the door open when he was asked whether Favre might be a solution to his quarterback problems.

Sparano said he wouldn't rule out anything when he was asked about Favre, whose name also came up in Philadelphia (for about a millisecond) recently. Agent Bus Cook continues to insist that Favre is retired, and I think we ought to believe him this time, but this definitely isn't the last you're going to hear about him.

About Peter Schmuck

Peter Schmuck wants you to know that, contrary to popular belief, he is more than just a bon vivant, raconteur and collector of blousy flowered shirts. He is a semi-respected journalist who has covered virtually every sport -- except luge, of course – and tackled issues that transcend the mere games people play. If that isn’t enough to qualify him to provide witty, wide-ranging commentary on the sports world ... and the rest of the world, for that matter ... he is an avid reader of history, biography and the classics, as well as a charming blowhard who pops off on both sports and politics on WBAL Radio. That means you can expect a little of everything in The Schmuck Stops Here, but the major focus will be keeping you up to the minute on Baltimore’s major sports teams and themes, whether it’s throwing up the Orioles lineup the minute it’s announced or updating you on the latest sprained ankle in Owings Mills. Oh, and by the way, that’s Mr. Schmuck to you.
