LT, the new Favre?

With Ladainian Tomlinson becoming a Jet, the comparison between him and Brett Favre is inevitable. Both are future hall of famers, and were replaced by their teams that they had helped to carry throughout their entire career. In both situations, each player found a new home with the Jets, who hope(ed) to squeeze the last of the talent that each player had left toward their benefit.

The comparison took a more direct turn though, as Profootball talk reported that LT went to Favre for advice on his predicament. Some believe that Brett Favre was attempting to coax Tomlinson into joining the Vikings, however that is somewhat unlikely as the former cheesehead has yet to state whether he is returning for next season or not yet (Hint: 9 to 10 chance he will).

What is particularly strange about this is that after speaking with Favre, LT later went to join the Jets. Did Favre recommend New York as a good place for Tomlinson to find a new home for the time being? Though he signed a 2-year contract with the Jets, will this all lead to LT leaving New York in the 2011 season to seek revenge against the Chargers? Is Brett Favre the secret head of the NFL Players Association? Could this all be some evil plan by Al Davis to have LT play QB for the Raiders? Only time will tell
