Yes Im a Giants fan and I believe Mollison is a fan/player.

But there is already an American Football thread in the other sport section....

Bret Favre has not only, fairly unsuprisingly, decided to cancel his intended retirement.

The shocking part is that this has gone hand in hand with him putting in an official request for his release from his contract with the Green Bay Packers.

Favre hadn't missed a match in 16 years going back to 1992. He holds almost every record going for a QB Including most consecutive regular season starts (253), most passing touchdowns (442) and most passing yards (61655).

When the average NFL career spans 4 years this is put even more into perspective.

However, while his return was half expected, him leaving "The Pack", where he is essentially a deity, has shocked football fans to the core.

(However, as a Jets fan I can't help but point out that he has a few years to go in terms of longevity to match former NY Jets QB Vinny Testaverde, who has a touchdown pass in 21 consecutive seasons. Thats equivecal to a player staying playing for Premiership teams and scoring at least once a season from 20 years old through to 41 years old. Legend!

Its a hard sport to get into. But once you do its great fun

In its early Channel 4 heyday, the sunday highlights was a real higlight of the week, but my knowledge of the NFL has dwindled somewhat in recent years. Rather like my team, the Miami Dolphins!

Dan Marino forever!

Imagine its the two minute warning, your team is on its own 20, down by 4 points...you need a QB who is gonna take you the length of the field and win the game...you need... Dan Marino!

(Or John Elway...but NOT Vinny Testaverde!!!)
