Ah, the ESPY’s, the sports world’s answer to the Oscars, the Emmys, the BAFTAs, so on and so forth. Anyway, as superstars, has-beens, wannabes and the like made their way down the red carpet, several marginally relevant characters were interviewed about the prospect of Brett Favre making his triumphant return to, well, some NFL team.

First up, Aaron Rodgers, who offered the predictable, “it’s not my concern” response, which sounds about right. More than that, Rodgers was very respectful of the whole bizarre situation, even though he has every right to be pretty upset with Favre’s inability to make a freaking decision.

Packers teammate A.J. Hawk, with his George Jefferson suit and Steven Seagal do, also stopped to give his thoughts. And finally, Matt Leinart was consulted for his opinion, because, really, no awards show would be complete without him or Nick Lachey going on record about … . Plus, he has some experience with being unable to beat out a grizzled veteran for a starting job.
