This day in sports

... This day only got more interesting as the hours passed ...

First, Ken Griffey Jr. gets traded to the White Sox ...

Meanwhile Brett Favre and the Packers still hadn't decided their respective futures -- although the latest report was the Packers supposedly offered Brett 20 million over 10 years to stay retired. Lovely ...

Then the Cubs slaughtered the Brewers again. 11-4 this time ... I watched it play out in the Gameday format on my computer as I worked this afternoon and I can't remember the last time I've been more relieved to see a game end ...

Meanwhile Brett Favre and the Packers still hadn't decided their respective futures -- although the next latest report was the Packers are now considering trading Brett to the Vikings or Bears. Fine, just get a deal done, already ... If, at this point the Packers are so sure Aaron Rodgers is their man and they have no need for Favre's services than send him on his way -- no matter the team. If the Packers are so sure about Aaron Rodgers, than they should have no fears about Brett Favre beating them in a rival game, right? Although, I sort of like Jason Whitlock's offer, too.

Then, after seeing reports all day that Manny Ramirez appeared destined to become a Florida Marlin -- bam -- it comes across that he's becoming a Dodger ... Sweet! I'll take it! The joy of that one makes up for the downer of seeing Ivan Rodriguez go to the Yankees yesterday ..

And the Brett Favre saga goes on ...
