Filed under: Jets, Packers, AFC East, NFC North, NFL GamblingNow that the drama between Brett Favre and the Packers is over, let’s take one last reflective look at the past few months, the unprecedented enormity of it all, and how we arrived at this place.

Done?

Good, now: let it go. The past is the past. It’s time to look to the future. Everybody will be keeping tabs on the goings-on in Green Bay and East Rutherford this year, whether out of allegiance, curiosity, or thirst for waging your dollars on the uncontrollable actions of others.

Bodog’s got a whole new set of action if there’s no limit to your gambling pursuits. Some highlights:

Over/Under, Favre’s touchdowns: 25.5
Over/Under, Favre’s interceptions: 15.5
Over/Under, Jets wins: 8 (-155)
Over/Under, Packers wins: 8 (-135)
Odds that Mike McCarthy, Ted Thompson, or Mark Murphy will lose their jobs before the 2009 season: 3/2 (one of them), 9/4 (two of them), 5/1 (three of them), 6/5 (none of them)

Keep in mind, this stuff isn’t determined with probability in mind, only what will draw the most bettors. That being said, I’m taking under, over, under, push, and banking on all three of those guys keeping their jobs. Degenerate gamblers, weigh in!
