Brett Favre to the Indianapolis Colts?: Indy Owner Teases Fans

The Indy Star, a local Indianapolis newspaper, is reporting that Colts owner Jim Irsay is in Hattiesburg, Mississippi right now. Irsay posted on his Twitter account saying (sic) "Brad,I'm in Hattiesburg...is it right or left at the Firechief?"

The messages are obviously directed at Brett Favre, but the quarterback's agent said he hasn't spoken with his client in a few days.

This news comes as just yesterday Irsay sent a tweet saying the franchise may be looking for a veteran quarterback just in case Peyton Manning isn't ready for Week 1.

How ironic would it be that Favre's main competition to break his consecutive starts streak, Peyton Manning, would miss a start and Favre would be the one to replace him?

Manning has started 227 consecutive regular season games. Favre's record ended at 297—321 if you include the playoffs.

With the Colts hosting the defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers to kick off CBS' national TV coverage on Friday night, Irsay wouldn't be in Hattiesburg for a vacation. Especially since his franchise player is injured and looking for a replacement.

Oh yeah, what more perfect scenario would it be if Favre's first game as a Colt would be against his old team, the Green Bay Packers?
