OFFICIAL BRETT THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

[Fritz]

To some people in here, has Brett done anything wrong. It is crazy, someone says something a tad negative and they get jumped on by the usual people. LOL

Kinda like the same people come in here and say nothing positive about the guy so that's where people like me, a favre supporter get sick of it. Thru week 12, these people didn't show their face in this thread. Now they take every shot they can. Talk about classless pussies!

Does that mean you're a classy dick?

1. Chris Mortensen went to Mississippi to do an interview of Favre thge week before SuperBowl XL.

If you believe that was the real reason he went down there, then there's this really cool, to be built bridge, in Alaska you might like to invest in.......

Considering that Mort was working oin a piece for SuperBowl week and Favre wasn't the only one he interviewed, Yes. And once again. Mort never asked him about retirement. Favre brought it up.

And you are not a classless pussy when you take a shot at TT every chance you get? Pot, let me introduce you to Ketlle.

Fritz, check your facts--the bridge never did get built!

I was going to say that ^, but didn't want to jeopardize my NYR.

I'm going to have to go and see if I can find the actual interview. Somehow, and I could be wrong, have been before, but I don't remember it that way.

To be honest I only started showing up in this thread because people kept bumping it to the top and I am more interested in the will he won't he retirement drama than his play in the season. My comments are meant to be light hearted and things everyone can enjoy. It is no secret that Favre has been talking about his retirement for the last ten years, even though most football players don't start talking about it until the year or the year that they do retire. Favre likes the attention and we all give it to him, so can we blame him?

At last count, I have 11 books on Brett Favre (all gotten as gifts....my daughters are at a loss now)......the great majority he didn't have anything to do with. How about the multiple TV specials that made him 'A Legend', '4-Ever'?
That was my point awhile back..........he is what GB, the media, and we the fans created.

My take on Favre is that he'll retire. BUT, the Jets are projected way over the cap. If he sits tight until the Jets are required to get under the cap this spring they'll have to cut him.


That leads to the speculation that he's want to join Bevell and Childress if he could. If he feels like he's healthy enough then he might try and do that.

My take? I'd be fine with him for the first 8 games until he started wearing out, then somebody else has to take over. Minnesota has some interesting offensive potential which he might be interested in. If Rice gets healthy, he and Wade are well suited for the short slants and such that he did so well in Green Bay. The offense in Minnesota suits him but the dude is old and he ain't got much left.

I'm not sure about this.

I am

Then again, I ain't always right!

[HarveyWallbangers]

To me, if he progresses, Rice will be more like Cris Carter. I know many say you want a fearless and bigger guy catching slants, but to me the best guy running slants is somebody that is quick and runs crisp routes. Jerry Rice being the best example. Greg Jennings being the latest example. I'm not sure Wade is quick enough or Rice is crisp enough in his route running.

No, Rice admitted he couldn't cut most of the year after he tore his PCL (I think it was his PCL)

. I agree, quick cuts are a must. He has great hands and IF (I admit) IF his route running improves with his health he'll be good. Wade is a great YAC guy and is good on slants now.

Neither one of the two is as explosive as Jennings though. TT has to get an A+ for that pick.

[MOBB DEEP]

This thread is off to a fairly good start for an endless thread. Maybe once Favre retires once and for all we can get some people to report on when he mows his lawn and stuff like that.

The flaw here is that Woody Johnson desperately wants Favre for another year. They will get under the cap WITH Favre on that list. IF Brett tries to pull that stunt again, the NY media is going to make him wish he was still having his ass kissed by the MJS.
