    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Good, no, great one PB.

    I kinda liked "Here's a late score, Sodom and Gomorrah still tied at 69".

    Rand didn't get your ratio there, but I guess it was just some scientist shit I wouldn't get anyway.

    “He’s been taken up!”

    “Nope. There he is!”

    Not really. 108 billion total lives over history versus two biblical characters who never dies because they were ‘taken up’.

    OIC.

    I liked your joke better when I didn't understand it.

    It’s funny. And a good Harry Caray impression. The Steve Stone voice needed work, but who would even care about that?

    Brett says he did not no show anyone. He doesn't know where auditor came up with two speaking engagements missed.

    https://madison.com/wsj/sports/footb...2db6966b2.html

    Favre said the fees were for advertising work, public-service announcements and one public appearance and that he never accepted payment for services he did not perform. He learned of the scandal from his longtime agent, James “Bus” Cook, who contacted him after news broke earlier this week.
    Taking Brett at his word, the obvious explanation is that the org that was paying him made inaccurate or misleading claims about his involvement.

    He got $1.1 million. Why would you commit fraud and give it to someone else with no “reward” for doing so.

    If it was for advertising work, public services announcements and one public appearance shouldn’t there have been a contract or receipt of the work contracted for? I can’t think of any client or business I work for, that an agreement with that dollar amount wouldn’t be contained in a formal contract or a written agreement of some type.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    I doubt you need a contract with Bus and Brett. I suspect that kind of thing could be handled by phone or email. Dates and confirmation of payment. I just think that it may never have been Favre's understanding that he was being paid for speaking engagements. That part could be one sided,

    It could still be related to the volleyball court or Prevacus or some other scam. My money is that Prevcus is the link because the Few family and Davis were investing public money in it outside of the $1.1 mil Favre got.

    But they also could have been using Favre as cover/publicity for how active they were. And same as the idiotic expenditures on golf and concert tickets, getting Favre to attend an event might have been its own reward.

    The auditor said that Davis did not seem intent on any one scam, just running his own mini empire.

    From the point in his career when he began routine interviews with the media, I have felt he says whatever he thinks will further his own objectives, and he convinces himself that it is the truth. He sometimes lives in his own version of reality.

    Its a hypothetical. I just think the items on the receipts for the money are not the interesting part and likely can be explained away. And the difference between one party or the other describing them don't seem interesting to me. I could be wrong, it might lead to something

    Why each party got the money and the connections between them are where the action is, it would seem to me.

    It’s a mistake to think Favre doesn’t know what he’s doing. “I just want to play for a team that plays against Green Bay. Minnesota plays them twice.”

    I’m torn on this

    On one hand I’d like to thing Favre isn’t dumb enough to do something like this, or so money hungry to do it

    On the other hand, I know he’s not the brightest bulb in the drawer, and I’ve heard tons of first hand stories about just how frugal he is with money and how he and his extended family don’t like paying for anything and want everything given to them for free, even though they have plenty
