Source: Favre probably back in '08

Posted: Monday December 24, 2007 06:53AM ET

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.

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 25 December 2007 06:42 (sixteen years ago) link

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

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

omar little, Tuesday, 25 December 2007 17:51 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

j.q higgins, Sunday, 13 January 2008 14:55 (sixteen years ago) link

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

sunny successor, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:03 (sixteen years ago) link

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

brownie, Monday, 14 January 2008 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Roberto Spiralli, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 16:03 (sixteen years ago) link

"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

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.

leavethecapital, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:30 (sixteen years ago) link

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

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:48 (sixteen years ago) link

King can still fellate his Montclair Starbucks barista.

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

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:51 (sixteen years ago) link

up there having fun in heaven.

one month passes...

"Aaron has fallen into a great situation," Favre said. "And if that opportunity presented itself and they did call, it would be tempting. And I very well could be enticed do it."

jesus christ he's gonna murder aaron rodgers

omar little, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 22:53 (sixteen years ago) link

More like Rodgers gonna murder him!

Favre is the coverboy for Madden 09 for some inexplicable reason.

No Madden curse this year!

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun

In Favre's Mind, he's forever playing beach volleyball with Marco Rivera and Bubba Franks and Donald Driver under cheddar-colored skies, while Peter King in a speedo and green/yellow body paint serves him pina coladas served in bowls shaped like the Super Bowl Trophy. And Michael Strahan is cheering him on, shaking pom-poms and playfully pretending to fall down. And somewhere, off in the horizon, Mike Sherman is being eaten by sharks.
