Listen, no one here will profess to know what an NFL level hit feels like—don't want to know—but it seems that Brett Favre may need to rethink his decision to keep bringing his "41-year old man" body out on the football field.
After all, like the announcer says in the clip above, the defense is gunning for him on a weekly basis, they don't give a damn how old he is. He's got the ball, he's the quarterback, and they want to lay his pass-throwing backside out as much as possible.
At last check, that's how the game of football is played. No one should feel any obligation to keep Favre upright just because he's the oldest man on the football field—he made the choice to be out there so it's open-season.
It's high time that Brett took a longer look at how he wants to spend the remainder of his young days because, if this is the kind of hit that's going to require him to be carted off like a man who just had his jock strap set on fire, then he's beyond the iron man stage—he's just a man—and it won't be long before someone really knocks his butt out.
is going to do.
head coach, Brad Childress reprises his role as the "lips" and he is 
in the 2009 NFC Championship game. After all, he did throw the ill-advised and ill-timed pass that eventually led to the Vikings seeing their Super Bowl dream fade to black?
