Favre may be having fun, but having to read any more about this hick-Hamlet motherfucker is most certainly not any fun.

Bill Magill, Friday, 11 July 2008 20:47 (fifteen years ago) link

J0rdan S., Friday, 11 July 2008 20:47 (fifteen years ago) link

"jesus christ the local news d-bags are going to fucking go NUTS about getting favre to play in chicago."

Glad I'm not there anymore to hear that. No way the Bears sign him.

Bill Magill, Saturday, 12 July 2008 16:41 (fifteen years ago) link

luckily i haven't been around a tv except for the one that was on behind the bar at the show i went to last night. i glanced up and sure enough, local talking head was shown with favre in an inset next to him.

chicago kevin, Saturday, 12 July 2008 19:08 (fifteen years ago) link

It looks like the Packers are calling his bluff. There is no way they are going to let him go to a divisional rival.

leavethecapital, Sunday, 13 July 2008 00:14 (fifteen years ago) link

Yea, Favre has the right to unretire, but seriously now who is more indecisive than this guy? The timing of this just stinks, especially given the fact that he supposedly entertained the idea of staying in March only to change his mind.

Move on with Rodgers--hell, he probably takes care of the ball better at this stage, judging by the very little flashes of potential I saw in the Cowboys game.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Sunday, 13 July 2008 02:13 (fifteen years ago) link

He may have the right to unretire, but he also has 3 years left on his deal with the Packers. It's almost like a non-compete agreement in the real world: if he wants to come back, it's with the Packers or whoever they want to send him to.

And before anybody starts with how NFL contracts mean basically nothing, let me say that this is one of the few times I side with management in one of these situations. This guy is seriously fucking with them.

Bill Magill, Sunday, 13 July 2008 15:41 (fifteen years ago) link

Agreed. Dude is almost as bad as Magic Johnson was....

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Sunday, 13 July 2008 18:11 (fifteen years ago) link

I am sympathetic to Magic, he didn't get to leave on his own terms. Turns out he didn't have to go, but Farve is just a douche who can't make up his own mind.

Bill Magill, Sunday, 13 July 2008 19:51 (fifteen years ago) link

The crowd of more than 100 chanted "We want Brett," and carried signs reading, "Favre for President" or "Favre Forever." Many in the parking lot wore No. 4 jerseys, tossed footballs and grilled.

J0rdan S., Monday, 14 July 2008 07:02 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm sure Favre is really upset about the people in that crowd (and I bet there are a few) who have recently been laid off.

Bill Magill, Monday, 14 July 2008 14:21 (fifteen years ago) link

The brothers, from the Milwaukee suburb of Pewaukee, started making random phone calls Saturday from the Green Bay white pages urging people to attend Sunday's rally and visit their Web site www.bringbackbrettfavre.com.

they showed this on the wgn news this morning, it was about 85 people, mainly older women and young kids. the "signs" were mostly written on pages torn from a loose-leaf notebook. it was pathetically hilarious.

chicago kevin, Monday, 14 July 2008 15:52 (fifteen years ago) link

The funny thing about this whole story is the fact that Favre isn't really that good.

By Chris Jenkins | The Associated Press
3:26 PM CDT, July 14, 2008

MILWAUKEE - Brett Favre finally is speaking for himself: He wants to play but doesn't feel welcome in Green Bay, so he's asking to be released.

The quarterback's first substantial comments on his latest retirement decision reversal come in an interview with Fox News on "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren."

"I am guilty of retiring early and there is a reason for that," Favre said, according to an excerpt provided to The Associated Press before the Monday night broadcast. "And the major issue is 'Why did he retire?,' and 'He asked for a release because he doesn't want to play in Green Bay.' That's not true. And I hope people are hearing this and saying 'OK, that clears it up."'

According to Van Susteren, who spoke to the AP by telephone Monday afternoon, Favre said he was "never fully committed" to retiring and felt pressured by the Packers to make a decision, a notion Packers general manager Ted Thompson and coach Mike McCarthy tried to dispel in an interview with the AP on Saturday.

"Ted always wanted Brett back," McCarthy said. "We always wanted Brett back."

Favre told Fox he understands that the Packers want to move on -- but if they're doing so, they should let him go.

"Them moving on does not bother me," Favre said. "It doesn't. I totally understand that. By me retiring March 3rd, I knew that could possibly happen. All I was saying is, you know, I'm thinking about playing again."

Van Susteren, who is from Appleton, Wis., and is a Packers shareholder, said Favre made it clear he would not return to the Packers if he wasn't the starter. And while Favre said the Packers asked him for a list of teams to which he would accept a trade, he wants to be released to make sure he ends up on a competitive club.

Thompson said the team wasn't going to release Favre, but he could come back in a "different role than he was" because the team is committed to going forward with Aaron Rodgers.

Thompson and Packers coach Mike McCarthy wouldn't discuss the possibility of trading Favre and said they hadn't received any trade inquiries as of Saturday.

Thompson and McCarthy gave AP a detailed description of their dealings with Favre throughout the offseason, including an episode a few weeks after Favre's retirement where the two were prepared to fly to Mississippi to seal the deal on a Favre comeback -- only to have the quarterback change his mind again.

Favre's interview -- which was receiving top billing over an interview with John McCain in promos for Van Susteren's show that aired during the day Monday -- is the latest development in what is looking more and more like an irreparable schism between one of the NFL's most revered franchises and perhaps its most beloved quarterback.

Thompson called the situation "gut-wrenching" Saturday.

"I mean, it hurts," he said. "I'm not talking about physically hurting, but the sensitivity. We understand where the fans are coming from. This is a hot-button issue that surpasses anything I've ever gone through."

According to Van Susteren, who spoke to the AP by telephone Monday afternoon, Favre said he was "never fully committed to smoking the joint at the big tree behind the science building" and felt pressured by the his friends to make a decision, a notion his friends Teddy and Mike tried to dispel in an interview with the school's principal on Saturday.

J0rdan S., Monday, 14 July 2008 21:29 (fifteen years ago) link

My God, how many years now has Favre played the retirement cock tease with Green Bay? I swear this might be like the sixth or seventh season in a row.

I think if I was Green Bay's GM, I'd be a dick and tell Favre's agent that the only way he is going to get traded is if he can get a first round draft pick outside of the division in exchange. I'm sure that dork Snyder that owns the Redskins is freakin itchin to make a deal.

Motherfucker, this guy!

eh?

I'm a Bears fan-leave me alone.

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 15:20 (fifteen years ago) link

I basically agree with Mr. Magill, especially if you're talking about the period between his last Super Bowl appearance through 2006. He didn't always have the receivers he needed, but plenty of underachieving and poor performances. He was fantastic last year, though.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 18:41 (fifteen years ago) link

Brett Favre is the emoest motherfucker I can think of.

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 19:05 (fifteen years ago) link

I'll admit he was great last year, but he sucked in the Giants game. It almost seemed like he gave up.

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 20:12 (fifteen years ago) link

I think I would've given up on that game after maybe 10 minutes. It looked like hell post-Eagles reunion.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 20:22 (fifteen years ago) link

I think Tom Coughin's face fell off in the first quarter.

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 20:37 (fifteen years ago) link

look i think he's a bitch too, but he's still one of the top 5 in the league - and in a league where completely average QBs are still a very valuable asset, a top tier dude like him is worth a lot imo

cankles, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 23:26 (fifteen years ago) link

i can't suggest he's teh suck because i am a bears fan as well and i know all too well what it means to be dependent upon some weak sister as a qb

omar little, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 23:29 (fifteen years ago) link

two teams in the brett sweepstakes accd'ing to mike francessa source: 'skins & panthers.

compensation of something like a 2nd rd pick or 1st if he plays all 16 games or some jazz

johnny crunch, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 01:20 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah, he was that good for most of last year. The question now is, how long can he sustain it? He's going to be thirty nine soon. What does he have, one to two good years left? Take a shot if you like, but I think this will be the football equivalent of the Mets' signing of Pedro Martinez. One good year, then pffffftt!

leavethecapital, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 02:49 (fifteen years ago) link

Favre forced to wear those horrible Panthers unis!

i always hoped teal would die with the '90s

omar little, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 18:59 (fifteen years ago) link

I've reconsidered and would take him on the Bears. This is a "win now" league, there is no building for the future. But with the Bears' luck they would get '05 Brett, not '07 Brett.

Bill Magill, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 19:02 (fifteen years ago) link

bill yall will have gale sayers back before you get favre

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 July 2008 19:03 (fifteen years ago) link

Your're right, there's no way he's staying in the Norris, other than with the Packers.

Bill Magill, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 19:10 (fifteen years ago) link

someone please photoshop brett and new team colors on this?
