If Favre responds to all the furor, look for him to confess to being mystified and hurt at all the criticism. After all, he was only complimenting Aaron Rodgers! He'll say he can't believe how vengeful and spiteful some people can be - all he ever wanted to do was play and have fun and do his best, etc. He's hurt by it all and wishes people would understand he was just complimenting his successor.

If Dom Capers were running Brent's defense, it'd be called the "Mississippi Country Boy" defense.
