Clubhouse Cancer

Ummm, OK…Brett Favre is kinda tough.

(click on image to enlarge)

Some people were insinuating that Brett Favre just might have choked the NFC Championship game away with that late interception instead of running for a few certain yards to set up a potential game winning field goal against the New Orleans Saints about 10 days ago. However, you may recall Favre tweeked his ankle earlier in the half and had to have it completely re-taped after being helped to the sidelines like the drama queen he most definitely is.

Not so fast.

Here are some pics posted by Rick Cleveland of the Clarion (Mississippi) Ledger that he got from Favre’s agent Bus Cook of the QB’s ankle and right hammie the day after the game. (great scoop Rick, btw)

Jeezus.

Is that a human ankle or some sort of cartoon alien appendage? At least the color shows a little team spirit.

I think I’ll lay off Favre for a while. He actually doesn’t deserve my horseshit. Yeah, I can’t believe I just wrote that either. (clarionledger)

“Love it, big plays here we come!”

That was what Devin Hester Tweeted to local Chicago sports anchor Peggy Kusinski yesterday regarding the addition of Mike Martz as the Bears offensive coordinator.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t think Hester has much of a future as a receiver in a Martz offense. With the semi-emergence this past season of guys like Earl Bennett and the other ‘Devin’ Aromashodu, not to mention ‘Pro Bowler’ Johnny Knox (can you actually hear my eyes roll?), Hester might be the odd man out come the 2010 season.

Hester reminds me of a guy like Az-Zahir Hakim…fantastic return man, lightweight receiver. Maybe they can have Hester line up in the backfield and catch passes in the flat…or, the Bears could just get with the freaking program and simply turn Hester back into the most dangerous return man in NFL history.

Since there isn’t usually too much cuteness here, how about a pic of Hester’s son who just turned 3 months old yesterday? The kid already looks badass.

I have gotten a few emails asking if Clubhouse Cancer is on Twitter, and yes, I am. But, as usual, if you don’t expect too much from me, you might not be let down. (D_Hest23)
