Brett Favre has had a lot of visits to doctors in his 20 years in the league, but not too many of them have probably been to the eye doctor. The 40-year-old Minnesota Vikings quarterback complained of a weird dryness in his eyes yesterday, AOL Fanhouse reports, and got a ticket to the eye doctor's as a result. "I mean, all morning they have been as dry and brittle as a couple of potato chips," Favre told the site. "I've been dealing with this lately. I've tried a few things, but nothing has worked. So, we're going to get them checked out. Now, I can still see good." Along with the injury to wide receiver of Sidney Rice and migraines of Percy Harvin, this eye problem could be another good excuse for Favre to turn to if the Vikes can't match the stellar season it had last year.

This is a good thing. When Brettfavre goes back to throwing picks wildly as only a "Gunslinger" (TM ESPN) can, he can't blame his eyesight!
