... such short notice? Wizardry, we say. More importantly, does this mean anyone lucky enough to attend a Jets home game this year will be privy to, "J-E-T-S, Brett! Brett! Brett!" chants? We certainly hope so. The one positive thing to draw from all of this is we can finally rest easy now that this Favre ordeal is over with.
