    Brett Favre just got more interesting that ever. The first ever quarterback to be able to beat all of thirty two National Football League teams, he is currently with Minnesota Vikings, and the last, and definitely high in his list of teams to beat, the Green Bay Packers, which they have beaten, so Favre can now definitely say that he is the only NFL quarterback to have beaten all of the NFL teams in the league.

    During the game with the Packers, Favre felt awkward at times. His first scoring toss was an uncomfortable body bump with Ryan Longwell, who was also a Packer player in the past.
    When the Packers, who were on a two on two score, stuffed Peterson with a newly planned defense technique, they were able to hold him down to twelve yards in the second half of the game.

    Even rookie player, Clay Matthews joined in the tackle and was able to rip the ball out, and tying the score at fourteen points.

    Favre felt that that type of performance could have still been improved, but then again, the outcome was still good.

    Favre justified comments made about his decision to retire, and saying that the reason he did not push for his retiring is for him to be able to seek revenge over his team, the Packers.

    When asked about the game, Favre said that he felt the same intense feelings he had when he played the night after his father died. It was an strong, intense and emotional game then, and he felt the same way now.  After his father died in two thousand three, Favre played on a Monday night against Oakland, and he performed one of his best games ever. He was able to throw for three hundred and ninety nine yards, and scored four touchdowns.

    CARSON, Calif. ? David Beckham, the star player for Galaxy team is now practicing with his team although he is still under observation for his inflamed right Achilles tendon. But this injury will not keep him from playing against the Chicago Fire on Friday night and with postseason coming, the team is now ready to fight it out with him.

    After the team?s last Thursday?s practice, Beckham is now 100 percent ready and he does not see any reason why he would not be in the game. His everyday training has put him in shape and it does him good too. Although the practice was hard for him he does not see any problem for tomorrow?s game.

    Since 2005 when Los Angeles won the Major League Soccer Cup, the team is once again on the edge of qualifying for another MLS trophy. Beckham came to the team in 2007 and this is the team?s first chance on victory for the postseason since having him.

    However, Bruce Arena, Galaxy coach said he will remain very careful with his approach  and will still observe Beckham because his star player is still under assessment and still checking on how he will react with his training. The whole team though is expecting he will be able to play because they have seen his improvement as compared to last week?s practice. Every member of the team is expecting Beckham to do his part although there will be lots of cautions with how he can handle his injury.

    If DC United loses their battle against Chivas USA on Friday, Chivas will definitely have the most chances in reaching the MLS playoffs and will qualify for Saturday night?s game. For the record, Chicago and Los Angeles have both 41 points each. However, Mexican star and Chicago Fire midfielder Cuauhtemoc Blanco will not be able to play with his team this Friday because he has not yet recovered from a strained left hamstring.
