The Fall of Brett Favre

Dumb moment: A former football legend refuses to fade away, choosing to self-destruct instead over the course of an entire season. Hey Brett, you could always audition for Jersey Shore.

What happened: We all know what happened to the reputation of Brett Favre this year, but if you've forgotten, a bit of advice: when you Google it, make sure you don't do an image search. Either way, the old gunslinger who just couldn't hang up the spikes signed up with the Minnesota Vikings for the 2010 campaign, and in a season wracked by scandal and injury, finally retired from the game with not just his body broken, but his reputation in tatters.
