Are Eagles courting Brett Favre?

No doubt the Eagles have been biting their lip now for months.


They’ve been handcuffed by the NFL Lockout while the Phillies have continued their surge, spurred by the power of Citizens Bank Park, to the top of the heap of Philly sports.


This has been a burr in the side to the folks across the street at Nova Care Nation.


The Eagles are more than willing to rain on the Phillies parade. Anyone remember the timing of the Donovan McNabb trade, which just happened to fall on the night before opening day for the Phils.


But even I didn’t think the Eagles were this desperate.


Breff Favre? I mean really. Brett Favre.


Apparently that is one of the names being floated around out there to be the Eagles backup QB, since they likely will deal Kevin Kolb to the Cardinals just minutes after the new deal with the players is finalized.


Beat writer Bob Grotz has the details on the Eagles’ interest in the aging QB, who apparently once again is reconsidering his retirement.
