GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers have reached an agreement to trade quarterback Brett Favre to the New York Jets, the team announced late Wednesday night. Terms of the trade weren’t immediately available.
The Packers had been talking with the Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers since deciding earlier this week that the team and the three-time MVP couldn’t co-exist. The Packers decided to move forward with Aaron Rodgers as their starter after Favre announced his retirement in March.
“Brett has had a long and storied career in Green Bay, and the Packers owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude for everything he accomplished on the field and for the impact he made in the state,” Green Bay officials said in a statement.
“It is with some sadness that we make this announcement, but also with the desire for certainty that will allow us to move the team and organization forward in the most positive way possible.”
Jets chairman and CEO Woody Johnson issued a statement early Thursday.
“I am looking forward to seeing Brett Favre in a New York Jets uniform,” Johnson said. “He represents a significant addition to this franchise, and reflects our commitment to putting the best possible product on the field. Mike Tannenbaum and his football administration staff did a great job of navigating this complex process. I am excited about welcoming Brett, Deanna and their family to the Jets organization.”

Gender Benders
Unlike Eddie Murphy...China doubleChecks before buying
Via The Guardian
For more than a year, officials in Beijing have been designing a special laboratory to determine the sex of any athletes taking part in this year’s Olympic games. “Suspected athletes will be evaluated from their external appearances by experts and undergo blood tests to examine their sex hormones, genes and chromosomes for sex determination,” says Professor Tian Qinjie. The tests will not be conducted on every female athlete, but will be required if serious doubts have been raised about an individual competitor - invariably one competing in the women’s events. “The aim is to protect fairness at the games while also protecting the rights of people with abnormal sexual development,” he says.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) introduced sex testing in 1968 at the Olympic games in Mexico City, after the masculine appearance of some competitors, many pumped up by anabolic steroids, had started to raise questions about the gender of athletes in female events. Unsurprisingly, gender-determination tests were seen as degrading, with female competitors having to submit to humiliating and invasive physical examinations by a series of doctors. Later, the IOC decided to use a supposedly more sophisticated genetic test, based on chromosomes. Women usually have two X chromosomes; men an X and a Y chromosome. So, according to the rules of the test, only those athletes with two X chromosomes could be classed as women. However, many geneticists criticised the tests, saying that sex is not as simple as X and Y chromosomes and is not always simple to ascertain.
It is thought that around one in 1,000 babies are born with an “intersex” condition, the general term for people with chromosomal abnormalities. It may be physically obvious from birth - babies may have ambiguous reproductive organs, for instance - or it may remain unknown to people all their lives. At the Atlanta games in 1996, eight female athletes failed sex tests but were all cleared on appeal; seven were found to have an “intersex” condition. As a result, by the time of the Sydney games in 2000, the IOC had abolished universal sex testing but, as will happen in Beijing, some women still had to prove they really were women.
Transsexuals, who have had a sex change from male to female, can compete in women’s events in the Olympics, as long they wait two years after the operation.
Holy shit! I always thought that this was some sort of Hollywood created thing. I guess not.

Manny Ramirez Trade Watch
The 5 Minute Version
10:52PM - “The Red Sox don’t deserve a player like me….their goal is to paint me as the bad guy” - ESPN Deportes reports Manny said that to them before the game.
10:58PM - CNNSI is reporting that the Marlins are trying to bang out a last minute deal with the Boston Red Sox for Manny Ramirez. I can’t imagine that the Red Sox would trade Manny….this is retarded.
11:06PM - Mike Lynch says that the comments Manny made to ESPN Deportes ruffled feathers, but won’t get him traded.
11:07PM - Nice Try Manny
mutiny
see you fucking later manny
So the Boston Herald has finally said what some of us Red Sox fans have been secretly thinking for the last 3 years or so…Manny Ramirez can go–and we won’t give a shit….? Yes.
Buckly Nonethless
Let’s see if today is the day the Red Sox [team stats] will reclaim their dignity and toss Manny Ramirez [stats] out on his arse.
For years now, the team has been suffering in silence as Manny more or less spits in their collective faces. He has been a master of the phantom injury. He often has patrolled left field with a embarrassing casualness. He has been, in general, a clown, and Fenway Park [map] has been Bozo’s Big Top.
And, always, the Red Sox have looked the other way. This was because they didn’t want to “lose” their Hall of Fame-bound slugger. And in terms of end results, this outrageous enabling by the Red Sox has worked: You can’t argue with two World Series championships in four years.
The Red Sox also recognized they were fighting a losing cause. The fans - that is, those who are card-carrying Manny apologists - love the guy. You so much as raise the slightest bit of ire about the Clown Prince of Baseball, and you are dismissed as a Manny Basher.
But now it’s time for the Red Sox to be big boys about all this and either continue with the enabling . . . or, and let’s say it again, toss Manny out.
Literally. Throw him out. No, wait, that would be violent. And we don’t want to be advocating violence here. That’s Manny’s job - you know, tossing 64-year-old men to the ground and all that.
So escort Manny out to the pavement, right out there on Yawkey Way, and tell him to take his whiny agents and sycophants with him.
It doesn’t get any worse than this, Sox fans. The New York Yankees pulled into town last night to begin a three-game series against the Red Sox, whereupon Manny pulled up lame. He was in the lineup, and then he was not in the lineup. Ramirez already pulled himself out of the lineup the other day in Seattle, now he did it again yesterday.
This time, the Red Sox sent him out for MRIs - on both knees. In other words, the Sox called Manny’s bluff.
Surprise, surprise: The MRIs showed nothing. But common sense tells us Ramirez is playing the Red Sox, and all their fans for suckers. The guy has an 11-game hitting streak, during which he is hitting .487. And he says he’s been playing with a sore knee. Yet after taking himself out of the lineup, he stepped into the batting cage under the first base grandstand and proceeded to rake the ball. Until Manny pulled the curtain on me, I was standing there watching the Clown Prince.
Francona, who met with Red Sox owners John Henry and Tom Werner before the game, later tried to explain that it’s more or less a routine to clue in the owners about MRIs and the like.
Nonsense.
Managers don’t meet with owners every time a player needs an MRI. But you do meet with the owners when there is concern that your star left fielder is tanking it.
But Francona, to his credit, didn’t try very hard to defend Ramirez. Asked if the club feels Ramirez’ contract situation is playing a role in these absences, he said, “I’m not going to tell you what happened in the meeting. We’d have invited you.”
Three weeks ago, three days ago, Francona would have been outraged by that question. He’d have been angered by the mere suggestion that Ramirez would put money ahead of baseball.
Maybe Francona was just tired. Maybe he was ticked off that Yankees starter Joba Chamberlain has decided that his fastball is a dart and that Kevin Youkilis [stats]’ head is the dartboard. Maybe the skipper was upset that last night’s umpire, Marty Foster, submitted the worst officiated game in the history of organized sports. (On that subject: Major League Baseball has a moral obligation to watch a replay of Foster’s effort last night.)
Or maybe Tito’s just sick and tired of this Manny-being-Manny nonsense.
We know Sox general manager Theo Epstein is tired of it all. Asked about Ramirez late last night, he said, “I have no comment - for now.”
Let’s hope that the loose translation here is that Manny is going to be fined if he is not in the lineup today.
Better yet, let’s hope that the Red Sox simply throw Manny out.
Manny has a choice today: Stand in front of the Wall, or behind it.
Still awake? Yes…I know Buckley sucks. I probably read 25% of that article. But honestly only the title needed to tell me what I’ve known for the last 3 years. See you later Manny. J.D. Drew will happily bat behind Pappy–better yet stick Pappy behind Drew.
Send you’re “I’m on Manny’s nuts” hate e-mails to the address above. I personally ( a nobody ) can’t wait to see this guy run out of town. Just like he said in his interview with Gene Lavanchy (is that how you spell it?…Channel 7?) “I’ll make 20 million dollars anywhere…so I’m not worried” — yes…those are Manny’s words.
Fuck Him. See you later buddy.
