Now, Packers fans are holding their breath until the Packers trade Brett Favre out of Lambeau. The Packers are refusing to budge, as they keep saying Aaron Rodgers is their starter and Brett Favre is nowhere in their plans. Brett Favre's agent said that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the New York Jets are the new frontrunners to land Brett Favre.
Jon Gruden loves to have about five to six quarterbacks on his Depth chart, but Favre will not be happy if he is relegated to the fifth or sixth guy on the depth chart. Tampa should play Favre immediately if they land him.
How about the Jets? Last season for them was all about Kellen Clemens, as Chad Pennington was relegated to one of the highest paid backups in the NFL last year. Would Favre join Pennington as a benchwarmer?
The Jets should also play Favre if they land him, but if he goes to the Jets, that may result in another situation like the one in Green Bay.
Whoever lands Favre should play him. If he wants to win for your team, I say: let him. Don't let him sit on the bench.

The White Sox Will Not Let Kansas City Push Them Around
Miguel Olivo, Zack Grienke, Ozzie Guillen and Trey Hillman were all suspended for their roles in a bench clearing brawl between the Royals and White Sox.
Kansas City was up 14-3 before Sox Pitcher D.J. Carrasco hit Olivo with a pitch. Olivo charged the mound, and the benches were emptied immediately.
Will the White Sox road woes continue against the Tigers?
If the Sox road woes keep going, that may give Minnesota all it needs to win the AL Central.
I think the White Sox will not let Kansas City or Detroit push them around. I still think the White Sox will win the AL Central.

The Brewers Are Fighting Themselves
Ned Yost, just like one year ago, has lost the handle on his team.
Brewers first Baseman Prince Fielder exchanged words with pitcher Manny Parra in the seventh inning. Parra and Fielder had a less than friendly conversation which resulted in Fielder shoving Parra twice before teammates got involved.
The Brewers lost 6-3 to the Reds. Their once slender lead in the wild card has now slimmed down to just 0.5 a game over their division rival St. Louis Cardinals.
The Brewers have "Willie Randolph Version 2.0" a soft spoken guy in Ned Yost who can't control his team.
Just like Willie, Ned may be fired, especially if Milwaukee misses the postseason again this year.

Back To Square One With Brett Favre
Has Brett Favre left Lambeau for the last time?
It appears as though the Packers are, as I thought, working out trade scenarios for Favre. Favre has said he wants to head to Minnesota or Chicago, but the chances of that happening are slim.
Favre wants to play, but the Packers don't want him playing for them.
Who will win the Brett Favre Sweepstakes?

Packers To Welcome Brett Favre Back
It turns out that the cover of Madden NFL 2009 may not feature a retired player after all.
Comissioner Roger Goodell reinstated Brett Favre on Sunday.
ESPN said the Packers would hold an open competition for Favre.
That's they way it should be. Hold an Open competition and let the best man win. It will be intriguing to see what will happen if the Packers still name Aaron Rodgers the starter. Who will Brett Favre get traded to then?
