The Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson was extremely disappointed when his starting job was taken away to Brett Favre when the 40-year-old future Hall of Famer arrived in middle of last preseason, but Jackson now knows well he is still young and has chance to win the starting job back while Favre’s time already in countdown.
With that knowledge, Jackson’s attitude towards anything Favre is now doing or permitted to do is calm enough to get himself work hard in preparation for the upcoming season. He did not complain at all when Favre did not show for any of this offseason’s workouts and has made it clear that he will also be fine if Favre continues to miss the training camp.
“If he doesn’t show up to Mankato, sign the same time he did last year, that’s fine, that’s more reps for me, Sage (Rosenfels) and Joe (Webb),” Jackson told Chip Scoggins of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. “We just basically try to take advantage of it. When he comes backs, be ready mentally and just know what you’re getting yourself into. It’s going to be a long season.”
Talking about the possibility of Favre’s return, Jackson is confident that the quarterback will return to start with the Vikings for another season. What if he does not return? Jackson laughed and joked that he would wear Terry Bradshaw jersey for the whole training camp.

Titans CB Finnegan received confidence from team
The Tennessee Titans cornerback Cortland Finnegan was previously unconfident that he could deal with a starting job well at the left side of defense, but the team showed a great confidence in his ability and still moved him from right to the left during the offseason. What’s more, they even plan to give him the starting job.
As an All-Pro in 2008 season, Finnegan as struggled to play up to his standards in the spring. He used to tell reporters that he gave up way to many catches in spring practices and did not expect to get a starting job. It would be fine for him if he has to watch his teammates play while he was wearing a Terry Bradshaw jersey on sideline.
"I just tried to make too many big plays, and I got away from what I was supposed to do," Finnegan told The Tennessean. "But I want to do more to help this team win, and I felt like at this point in my career I need to be on the (left) side to help even more.”
But the Titans evaluated the cornerback carefully before making the decision. They still take Finnegan as one their best players and believe that he could help the other defensive players the most. Surely, they will continue the observation during training camp before making the final and official decision on starters.

The record of most expensive jersey was broken
While an authentic throwback Terry Bradshaw jersey is available under $200 everywhere and the real worn one’s price never grew up over $10,000, recently an auction for the jersey of Hockey Hall of Famer Paul Henderson broke records of all famous players’ jerseys. When the auction ended on Tuesday night, the jersey was sold at price $1.275 million.
Previously the record of most expensive hockey jersey was held by a game-worn jersey Bobby Orr wore during his rookie season at price $191,200, and the record of highest jersey price was held by the game-worn jersey of former New York Yankees Babe Ruth. Henderson’s jersey is even more expensive than the two jerseys together, and it was bought by one of Canada's richest men, who was reported to hold a net worth of over $1 billion.
Henderson himself was rather calm with another record he made with his worn jersey, saying that he would rather donate it to the Sports Hall of Fame. He was simply glad to know that the buyer planned to place the jersey in a public museum.

Terry Bradshaw was seen with Roethlisberger
When the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was getting involved in a rape lawsuit, former Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw used to make very harsh comments on what Roethlisberger did and was hated by many of Ben’s fans. However, what’s heard might not be truth, and Bradshaw is probably getting along very well with Big Ben in person.
Someone surprisingly encountered Bradshaw the other day and hardly believed what he saw was true when he recognized that Bradshaw’s partner was Roethlisberger himself. Both of them were wearing No.12 Terry Bradshaw jerseys and on their way to a sports club. Apparently, they were having a happy talk with each other and Roethlisberger respected Bradshaw so much that he kept being on step behind the former quarterback.
However, the witness was not allowed into the club so he had no idea what Bradshaw and Roethlisberger were going to do inside. Of course, it was impossible to be a duel game to decide which one was a better quarterback than the other. I guess there could a third person waiting for them to settle the disputes between the two.

Terry Bradshaw is a Saints fan
During his whole NFL career, Terry Bradshaw only played for one team, the Pittsburgh Steelers. But it seemed he was not happy for playing for the Steelers and was even absent from the Steelers’ celebration parade in 2006. Three years later, he did not feel anything sad for Steelers’ failure to make playoffs, but wished he would have been with the New Orleans Saints to win the Super Bowl XLIV game.
As it was already too late to add a Saints style of Terry Bradshaw jersey into the champion team’s locker room, Bradshaw said he would like to show his respect in another way, which is to hand the George Halas Trophy to the champion team’s captain, Drew Brees. Well, it was still impossible for Bradshaw to have right to do such things, he just said it, and saying is always an easy thing for a TV show host to achieve. However, many people doubted if Bradshaw meant it when he said it, as we never heard of good words from him on the Saints before they managed to reach playoffs.
As a result of the comments, Bradshaw now have more haters from the Minnesota as the comments were made before the Vikings played against the Saints for the NFC champion. Bradshaw seemed disliking the Vikings and their starting quarterback Brett Favre and had previously said something bad of Favre. Well, he himself never expects love from Vikings fans, or any team’s fans, as what he wants most is simply attention, the more people to discuss what was said by him, the better.

Terry Bradshaw might be right in Roethlisberger trade
Remember what former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw said of current starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger a few days ago when he heard of the troubles Roethlisberger was involved? He might be right in predicting Big Ben’s career future as the Steelers do receive offers from other teams about trading for Roethlisberger.
Roethlisberger was investigated and not charged with allegedly sexually assaulting a 20-year-old Georgia woman, a second legal issue he was involved into since last year’s lawsuit filed by a Las Vegas hotel worker. Shortly after knowing about the lawsuit, the former Steelers starting quarterback wearing No. 12 Terry Bradshaw jersey made his attitude clearly to be critical. He said Roethlisberger was ruining his career and the Steelers had good reasons to release him or start trade talking with other teams. Bradshaw also offered some advices that he said would help embattled Roethlisberger rebuild his image in public.
Well, Bradshaw might show his talent in analyzing things happening in football by saying that. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Steelers received quite a few calls from other teams asking about possible trade for Roethlisberger. What makes it more intriguing is that the team has not ruled out the possibility of make the trade happen in real sense. Everything could happen and it is not necessary to be for Roethlisberger’s good, just thinking about what happened to troubled wide receiver Santonio Homes, who was traded by the Steelers to the New York Jets and was said to be cut if trade turned out to be impossible.
