Grandpa Favre Gives Teammates the Gift That Keeps on Chafing

Now that he’s a grandfather, Brett Favre decided it was high-time he start practicing his crappy gift giving.  His first mark…his Vikings teammates of course.

And just what does a 40-year-old quarterback, who raked in a cool $12 million last year, get his fellow multi-millionaire mates?  Denim baby, or as it’s known in Hattiesburg, Mississippi…redneck cashmere.

All of Favre’s teammates who are attending the Vikings offseason conditioning program were treated to a pair of Wrangler jeans, one of Favre’s many endorsement deals, waiting for them in their lockers.

“I need to break them in a little bit, they are kind of stiff,” punter Chris Kluwe joked

Those lucky sons-of-bitches…a free pair of shitty Wranglers is a sweet deal.  Way better than having Favre there, you know, participating and stuff.  But if last year taught us anything, and it hasn’t, it’s that Brett Favre can skip voluntary workouts, training camp and most of the preseason, and still be a dynamo on the field…until he throws that untimely and costly interception, thus dashing his team’s Super Bowl dreams.

At least the jeans are slightly better than Tarvaris Jackson’s surprise gift last year–the infamous “I Came To The Offseason Conditioning Program And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt.”
