I thought if he was having surgery, he WAS done?

I'm pretty sure his arm is totally fine for a life outside of football (no pain or anything), but if he wanted to throw a football successfully, he had to have the surgery.

Yep...as we heard earlier up here, that ESPN article says the surgery will completely sever(!) the tendon in his throwing arm, thus eliminating the pain. (John Elway once went through the same thing, but naturally.) Surgery to actually repair the tendon would take much longer to heal, and Favre doesn't have the patience.
(And according to the Pioneer Press in that same article, Favre's already skipped one appointment with every wrestler's favorite doc, Dr. James Andrews. Geez...this guy can't even keep his word on going to the DOCTOR.)
Godd*mn zombie redneck.
