Former Lineman Thinks Favre Should Be In Camp
Former offensive lineman, and current Sports illustrated columnist, Ross Tucker had some choice words for Brett Favre on Wednesday.

In light of a rant recently recorded in Men’s Journal (and pointed out by PFT) I guess the blame is looking to be 100% on Brett himself. After discovering the Favre called ESPN’s Ed Werder this offseason and told him that [...]
