Brett Favre to mentor Cam Newton??

[madinmaryland]

What's next for Brett Favre? Whenever Favre returns this week from assisting tornado victims in the devastated town of Hackleburg, Ala., former Carolina Panthers DT Brenston Buckner has another mission suggestion for the iconic quarterback: Help rookie quarterback Cam Newton be everything he can be for Carolina's Sept. 11 season opener against Arizona. After all, Favre said last week that he might try his hand at coaching or some TV analyst work down the road. With the NFL lockout preventing Newton and other rookies from working with coaches or teammates, Buckner told USA Today that Favre would be another mentor to help accelerate Newton's learning curve the way Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon and quarterback guru George Whitfield, Jr. already have.

1. Why not?

It would be a smart move, provided Favre can teach...

2. Thier first meeting, Bret: "Now Cam, you've shown you're an a-hole, but

3. So he can learn to throw picks into triple coverage?

That tends to be things most QBs avoid.

And not for nothing, but WTF with all the Favre news? He'll coach! He'll be an analyst! He'll mentor Cam! He'll do whatever, just as long as his name is in the headlines!

He remains unbearable.
