Brett Favre To Appear On Dancing With The Stars?

Now that Brett Favre has finally retired from the National Football Leaguge, he can now worry about the more important things in life.

Mainly, possibly being a cast member on ABC's twelfth season of, "Dancing with the Stars".

We get more from Sentinel Sports Now:

Brett Favre could be serious about retiring from the NFL this time if the latest Favre “buzz” news is true.

Word is spreading fast on the web that Brett Favre is a potential contestant for Season 12 of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, set to air March 21. Dancing with the Stars has become a popular launching pad for retired or soon-to-be retired NFL stars seeking careers in the public eye. Chad Ochocinco, Emmitt Smith, Kurt Warner, Jerry Rice and Warren Sapp have all been contestants on the show.

There’s no official confirmation yet from either Favre or ABC’s camps yet.

If this is true, it might be interesting how the show would deal with the sexting scandal if he does become a cast member.

However, if Favre does become a cast member, I'm just waiting for his take on the Viennese Waltz.

Kurt Warner to "Dance with The Stars", Maybe?!?

Former NFL quarterback and Jesus-Alum Kurt Warner is embracing his retirement from getting hit by professional football players by heading for a possible stint on the hit ABC show, "Dancing with the Stars".

We get more from the Washington Post:

Meanwhile, "Idol's" biggest rival, ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" is enjoying the view from its position of stability and strength. The show, which beat "Idol" in the weekly ratings several times this past season, has just cast retired NFL quarterback Kurt Warner to be among next season's competitors, a source with knowledge of the casting tells the TV Column. It's the dance competition's very first NFL quarterback.

Dancing with the Stars has had numerous NFL players from Emmitt Smith, Chad Ochocinco, and Jerry Rice.

All I have to wonder is, "How Jesus Get Down?"

Chad OchoCinco Eliminated from Dancing With The Stars

For those of my readers on the West Coast, I apologize if you hadn't heard the results yet but Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco and his partner Cheryl Burke became the 100th couple eliminated from the history of the show Dancing With The Stars.

He ended up in the bottom two for the second consecutive week and could not make it into the final three.

We get more from ABC.com:

Ochocinco came into Tuesday's results show in last place, with 52 points out of 60 for his two dances. Judges' scores are combined with viewer votes to determine which couple is eliminated each week.

Ochocinco and Burke were coy about their relationship throughout the season. Fans speculated the two might be more than friends when the football star bought the pro dancer a flashy diamond ring one week and a delicate diamond pendant the next.

They continued their coyness Tuesday. Burke characterized their relationship as a "special friendship that will always mean the world to me." Ochocinco said that what the couple built during dance practice will "continue for a lifetime."

He thanked Burke and the show's cast, calling his experience on the show "awesome."

"I enjoyed the journey," he said. "I met some wonderful people, and I got some great criticism that's only made me stronger, man.

"In my eyes, really, I've already won."

Ah, that's sweet to say the least but hopefully, OchoCinco learned something from this experience and he should continue to dance to the beat of his own drum.
