This should put an interesting spin on the 2008 season. Not only will it make their team better, even if it's just for a year, he'd also be a great mentor for one of these young, up-and-coming quarterbacks trying to hot-shot around the NFL. I wonder if the Bears have called him yet? Perhaps the Lions? Minnesota? "Brett... it's Tuna... How's sunny Miami sound?"
