Brett Favre's Agent Calls Back, Says Favre Has Not Talked To The Chiefs
Bus Cook let it ring twice and hung up before I had a chance to answer. I called him right back. "It was an accident," he said. "I didn't mean to call you." Not a big deal, I thought.

Yesterday: The Greatest Catch That Never Officially Happened Of The NFL Season

Lil Wayne And Todd Haley Constitute Football's Newest And Maybe Worst Bromance
