Just My Type

BRETT FAVRE'S four-bedroom, three-bath house in Green Bay went up for sale, for $475,000 (given his number, I suppose the price had to start with a 4). A Packers fan should snap it up and turn it into a shrine. Here's how I'd work it:
• TAILGATE PARTIES. Any cheesehead on the Lambeau waiting list would pay to party there. Suggested rate: $44.
• A BACKYARD STATUE of Don Majkowski tearing an ankle ligament, to commemorate Favre's first start.
• THE CRAIG NALL HALLWAY, hung with portraits of all Favre's backups.
• THE GUYS from Favre's Wrangler commercial, always available for an impromptu game of touch football.
• A SPARE ROOM for Aaron Rodgers.

He Feels Their Pain

HERE'S A flip side to Kurt Warner's fear of injury: Ray Lewis's joy of hitting. He described to me the tackle that fractured the shoulder of Steelers back Rashard Mendenhall on Sept. 29: "The force was freaking incredible," he said. "After the play I wasn't screaming, 'He's hurt.' I was screaming, 'He's done.'" The Ravens linebacker said he'd take a hit like that over a sack or an INT any day. One thing he shares with Warner: a nod to the heavens. Lewis says after a big hit he recites the Lord's Prayer on the way back to the huddle.

THE FINE PRINT: TBS has announced that for the 2009 postseason, Frank Caliendo will be kept on a strict pitch count.
