Al Michaels, Paul Maguire, Brett Favre in ESPN booth

[G. Host]

That is what CNN/SI recommends

I think if they can get Farve that is a dynamite combination. I do not think Michaels and Maguire worked together other than as handoffs during playoffs but I think it would be a good combo.

Wait a second, have you ever heard Brett Favre talk? Is that for the southern football fans? I heard a rumor that one guy might be Jim Rome.

[AndreReed83]

If Jim Rome got put in the booth I would never watch ESPN football again. He's a bonafide arse.

If they want ratings they won't put him in. That guy is a ****ing douchebag

I hear Brett Favre sound bites on the radio here all the time. His southern accent is prettly slight.

[AndreReed83]

Brett is pretty camera friendly as far as talking is concerned. He would be a good addition. The only thing to consider though is the fact that he wants to be with his family more. I'm not so sure he would jump right into the football booth because of that.

[Jayhawk]

Rome? I'd rather they put AVery Johnson in.

I like the trio of Maguire, Theismann and Patrick. There entertaining and I think Patrick is a big part of it. When he was gone with Summeral replacing him there was alot missing. I hope Patrick gets a good job whether it be monday night football or move over to NBC.

[Mr. Cynical]

Favre would be a great foil for the other guys. He has got a "ballbuster" kind of attitude and is so well respected by everyone that he would be great. But I'm not sure why they are talking about this now...he isn't retiring for at least another year.

You gotta be the first one that I've heard of who actually likes that blowhard, Theismann.

Remember when he had that 1 line in "Something About Mary"? It was pretty crappy. "Mary, I'll be true to you."

This proves that even SI has nothing to write about, so let's make up some stupid article and post it. Boring.... call me when someone actually writes something worth reading. Besides Favre will be playing for 2 more years.

2 more years? Want to make a bet? Rodgers will be starting in 2006 IMO.

I'm not sure if its that I like Theismann I like the trio together.

Same story as every other year for the last 4 seasons, Favre will be back in 2006.
