Letterman: Brett Favre Jokes

On Thursday, David Letterman devoted a portion of his monologue again to taking some jabs at Brett Favre.

The jokes come so easily.

DAVID LETTERMAN: When it's this hot, you have to check in on the elderly, check in on the elderly. Don't let them go out side. As a matter of fact, here's what I'm talking about: Today, Brett Favre had to practice indoors.

(Letterman acts as if his arm is in pain, moans and groans.)



How 'bout this Brett Favre guy? He retires, then he unretires. Then he retires, then he unretires. Then he retires, then he unretires. Then he retires again and unretires. Now he's playing for the Minnesota Vikings, and it's not easy at this guy's... He's getting older. I'm not saying he's old but he is getting older. And before joining the Vikings, he had to pass a rigorous physical, rigorous physical, and also a Death Panel, had to pass a Death Panel. So, you know what I'm saying?

And now, and now other players are starting to talk about this. And I love it when the professional football players get into little hissy fit catfights, you know? Former Vikings quarterback Fran Tarkenton called the Brett Favre story a circus. He said it's a circus. That's what he said. It's a circus. And I said, 'Well, you know, that's a little unfair to the folks at Ringling Bros.' Really, when you think about it, isn't it?
