Hail, Mary
Posted By Rebecca Walsh on September 28, 2009, 11:00 AM
Most free thinking people call it dumb luck. NFL sports casters call it a “hail mary” pass. I just call it ---
More bullshit from Brett Favre.
After 59 minutes and 58 seconds of football, the 49ers had the Vikings beat, hands down. Then Brenda Favre did what she always does when she has lost a game. She throws up a prayer and hopes someone on her team catches it. This time someone did. Someone named Greg Lewis. Fantasy footballers know him as the 87th best wide receiver in the NFL. If you google images of Greg Lewis, this is what comes up. Ohhh… there it is in the bottom right corner. Photograph by Greg Lewis. Probably not the same guy.
Of course ESPN slurped Brett’s ass all night and all day saying ridiculous shit like “that’s why Minnesota got him…” and “another chapter in the legend…” blah blah blah.
No one has the balls to call it what it is… a lucky last second desperate prayer of a play.
Oh wait, I just did.
