Favre, Favre and more Favre
Vikings quarterback Brett Favre has started an NFL-record 274 games during his lengthy career, heading into tonight’s “Monday Night Football” matchup against the Packers in Minneapolis.
How to celebrate?
Mention his name 275 times during an hour-long sports show.
That is today’s goal on ESPN2’s “Sports Nation” (3 p.m.), hosted by Colin Cowherd and Michele Beadle.
Of course they will break Favre’s record. Such programming is part of ESPN’s pregame hype.
And the talkative trio in ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” booth probably will pass the 275-word mark during the game. AP file photo
