    Its really interesting to read how people found out. Seeing that this also happened late night I was sleeping...Im assuming im not the only one who found out and went bonkers!

    So, I found out this morning when i was getting ready for work and I put on NY1, they have this special for 5 minutes called "In the Papers"...then the woman says "On the back page daily news has JET FAVRE"...I literally was putting my pants on and i dropped them. Then did the fist pumps with both of my hands, sorta like Favre does after throwing a bomb lol

    when and where did you guys find out? and what happened once you found out?

    I was on the PATH Train this morning and happened to glance over at somebody reading the cover of the Post. I thought I was dreaming.

    I woke up around 2 AM, and put on sports center to get baseball finals, and found out. Couldn't fall back to sleep for a few hours.

    I was sleeping next to my fiance and my dad called and woke us up at 4:30 this morning. She is a Packers fan, so this should be interesting (she had a Packers t-shirt and jets panties on when she went to bed, maybe it was a sign...)

    I turned Mike and Mike on this AM, and saw "Favre Traded to Jets" right off the bat. Greenie was sitting there bouncing up and down like a kid on christmas morning. It was a beautiful moment.

    Was in the office. Logged onto PFT 4 minutes after they posted the news. Ran home and stayed up until 3:30 watching NFL Network coverage.

    I went to sleep around 10:30 with the TV and light left on in my room and woke up close to midnight to see that as the "Breaking News" on Sportscenter...

    Needless to say, I didn't go back to sleep until around 2:30.
