nope, nobody heard that.

i couldn't believe how much fun brett was having yesterday, at least according to every sideline reporter, the announcers, and the halftime show. also: that brett favre tribute they played annoyed the fukk out of me, especially when it did that super-annoying and all-too-commonplace bullshit of editing together a bunch of people saying the same thing (usually found in ads for erectile dysfunction or investment banks but here it was aged "legends" saying "we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful/we are all thankful").

Week 13 primer: Favre, Romo just wanna have fun

By Vinnie Iyer - SportingNews

You wouldn't be wrong if you said Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are the NFL's best two quarterbacks, regardless of whom you would rank first. Besides, the spotlight was on them again to start the season, as Brady had all these wonderful new receivers and Manning finally was a defending Super Bowl champion. But in the "inferior" NFC, two other quarterbacks are making a case there should be room for four at the top.

Brett Favre could have not thrown a pass this season, and his legacy would have already been legendary, but now that he's in an absolute zone that rivals the best football he's ever played, he's become a special class of his own. Then there's Tony Romo, the heir apparent to the other three as being a terrific, prolific passer for America's Team for many years to come.

Brady and Manning are all about meticulous film study and preparation, which leads to them being more business-like on game day. Of course, Favre and Romo work just as hard to get to their level, but they share a playground style that often defies Xs and Os. It's easy to see they're having fun out there, and that makes watching them fun for us.

So regardless of who wins this week's big matchup in Texas Stadium, let's hope we'll see Favre and Romo go at it again -- in the playoffs, and hopefully, Favre willing, next season. As for who should win this week, Favre's Packers or Romo's Cowboys, let's find out in the. ...

Game of the Week

Green Bay at Dallas. Favre and Romo come from the same gunslinger mold, so expect both to be aggressive and confident in throwing the ball downfield on Thursday night because it will take a good amount of points to come out on top. It's up to them to contain their emotions early, where a mistake can be costly against either playmaking defense.

Both teams bring a good pass rush, the Pack led by Aaron Kampman and the 'Boys led by DeMarcus Ware, but Favre and Romo have excelled at firing passes downfield before the pressure can get to them this season. The key then, comes in making plays in coverage, especially over the middle. That's where Favre loves throwing slants to Donald Driver and Greg Jennings, and Romo loves to lob balls to Terrell Owens and Jason Witten. That's another problem. The Cowboys' 3-4 will be thrown off when the Packers go to four- and five-wide sets, and the Packers' linebackers and safeties can't handle Witten.

So most of the big plays and points in this game will come through the air ... no surprise there. So it comes down to the running games and which team can put the game away in the fourth quarter. Although Ryan Grant is working well in the Packers' zone-blocking scheme, the bruising running of Marion Barber III will give the Cowboys the advantage late. It's a shame that someone has to lose this fun Favre-Romo duel, but don't worry -- they will meet again with more on the line in January.

Cowboys 28, Packers 24.

guys in the booth sure were quick to turn on favre when he went out, weren't they?

The Packers are conducting business like they expect Brett Favre to return in 2008 for his 17th season as its starting quarterback. A source close to Favre said this week while he can't know exactly what's going on in Favre's mind, the 38-year-old is having more fun this year than perhaps ever in his career, and that he'd be stunned if Favre doesn't come back next season.

brett favre

we should make a brett favre stylesheet option so all of ILX can look like this thread does

way to get slaughtered by the Bears Brett and company

el tomboto, can you plz change thread title back to 'brett favre is having fun'? ;_;

thanks for fixing this, btw

hey did you guys see how much fun he was having on sunday? he high-fived the ref, who was at first just like "uhh" and then even he broke out into a smile, because brett's enthusiasm was so infectious :)

"I have a lot to think about. It's been a fun year and winning has made it a good year," Favre told the newspaper. "For the first time in a couple of years, at this point, my focus is solely on Seattle and winning a playoff game at home."

dudes, favre's qb fun rating was therough the roof yesterday. lots of touchdowns? check. snowball fight? check.

you can always count on peter king...

If Favre retires (which I don't think he'll do, but I have no more information on it than the man in the moon), he's nuts. He's too good, having too much fun, and, when you read SI this week, you'll find out how much his game means to his 8-year-old daughter, Breleigh.

Do it, PLS

The local paper (from a wire feed no doubt) said Favre was "frolicking in the snow" on Saturday. That sounds like fun to me!

over/under on favre building a snow fort in the middle of a huddle next weekend if the weather cooperates?

future trivia q: last player to catch a favre pass: Corey webster

not having fun anymore

"Favre had spoken to Moss late last week and was willing to commit to more than just this season if Moss and the Packers could come to an agreement. But the Packers did not pursue Moss, who re-signed with the Patriots on Monday."

he butt hurt

CALOO CALAY

LOL

crying eagle with cheesehead too much for me. HAVE FUN, BRETT!

ckc ain't got no love for the slinger? no tears for lambeau?

today america has lost a patriot among the ranks of thomas jefferson and elvis

a true hero to all. in todays world where coverage of this multi billion dollar industry reads more like the wall street journal than a sporting contest the old gun slinger brought joy back to a small town trying to stay relevant in the land of the giants.

a film idea: we remake the classic john wayne western 'the shootist' into a modern day tale of football battle with the packers calling on favre to come back for one more game after aaron rogers rips his knee up in the nfc title game

also a true favre story: my friend was a ball boy due to secret suburban jew connections with the laurie and banner family. before the 4th and 26 game he was doing ball jew things when he heard 'hay kid throw me that damn ball' it was none other than the lord and savior himself and the two of them threw the pigskin around for a bit~

ok, my eyeballs are rolling around their sockets in independent circles after reading this.

Kinda fitting his last pass was an interception. Peter King must be devastated. He'll need someone else to fellate in his weekly column.

barring injury tom brady will be around for years, pete will be ok.

King can still fellate his Montclair Starbucks barista.

How long until Favre signs with the Dolphins? Or maybe the Vikings? Raiders?

up there having fun in heaven.

It is still March, I would not put it past the old boy to change his mind after a month of fishin'.
