"Two men enter, one man leaves" . Favre was on fire with 4 TDs in the NFC Divisional Playoffs against the Dallas Cowboys...
...while Dallas Cowboy QB Tony Romo never got off the ground.Best quote after game: "We don’t care what Keith Brooking says," chimed in DL Pat Williams. "He was about to get his ass whupped on our sideline over there."
To all the sports yappers who picked Dallas, I'm still waiting for your mea culpa. I've heard two guys actually admit they picked Dallas after the fact.
For the "hottest team in the NFL", crowned by the media as the winners of the Vikings/Cowboys NFC Divisional Playoff game yesterday at Minnesota before it even played out, Dallas laid a big deuce. Ask my cousins what a "deuce" is. The Vikings dominated in every aspect of the game. Brett Favre set more NFL and personal records, throwing 4 TDs and ended the game with a 137 QB rating. The Vikes' D sacked Dallas Cowboy QB Tony Romo 6 times. Sidney Rice had 3 TDs. Just an unbelievable game...it felt like a championship game, to me at least.

Some notables: Favre became the first 40-year-old to play in AND win a playoff game. He added to his all-time consec. streak record (for non-kickers) at 308. 19 straight playoff games with a TD (NFL record that he already held). 43 playoff TDs - 2nd to Montana who has 45. Vikings = 6 sacks is a franchise record and their first NFC playoff berth since 2000. Sidney Rice tied a record of 3 TDs in a game - this guy is pretty special.

Uno Favre.
Dos Favre.
Tres Favre. The 40-year-old showed that age means shit to him. But passion does. Win or lose next week against the Saints, it's been a great year of watching Brett with the Vikes. I've become a fan - of the team. And more than likely, will continue to follow them whether or not Brett returns. As for the Packers - until GM Ted Thompson is running that team, they are dead to me.
