OFFICIAL BRETT THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

[Patler]

What??? A football player played with a black & blue bruise?

Well, I don't know about that. I am not a doctor and do not play one the internet, but the only time I have seen a hamstring look like that was a tear.

And I have seen an ankle like that before and that was a ligament tear.

The thing we are missing is context. The only other injured appendage I know of that currently has pictures on the internet is Dwight Freeny's foot.

That was my point exactly. The fact he has large black and blue marks means little of nothing. Could be something real serious...or not. I've seen goaltenders with black and blue bruising from armpit to wrist from taking shots on the inside of their arms. I've seen black and blue ankles from puck impacts, and saw one with a huge black and blue bruise on his hamstring from getting turned around and taking a slapshot to the back of his leg (he, as many, wore little to no real protection over his hamstring).

However, in an apparent attempt to bolster Favre's tough guy image, Bus Cook did little more than make him a target for jokes and sarcasm. Favre had an image 3 years ago that athletes (and their agents) drool over. It suffered a bit in the Packer situation and scrambling attempts to rebuild it seem to be doing more harm than good.

Yes. Context and a diagnosis. Maybe there will be more surreptitious visits to Dr. James Andrews and diagrams in the Minneapolis papers.

Those can't possibly heal before,...oh...about the end of August, can they???

the bruises don't bother me as much as the ankle

about 7 or 8 years ago i landed on the side of my ankle after trying to block a shot in basketball. i came down on the side of another guys foot, rolled my ankle, and the little knob on the side of the ankle is what hit the floor and what i landed on.

that knob when from being a little bit smaller then a golf ball, to being the size of a baseball within an hour.

i couldn't put weight on it for over a week, none at all. i couldn't run on it for 4 or 5 months. and i couldn't walk or run pain free for over a half of a year. and i have a pretty high pain tolerance

his ankle is about the size of a softball judging by that picture.

a have to imagine its messed up pretty bad

Favre is a puss.....I send Pop Warner kids back onto the field with worse than that. So is Freeny.....cut the little toe off and get back out there!

You almost did it right, the [url] tag should go first and the [/url] tag should go second. The "/" indicates "stop doing that", which in this case is "treat the preceding as a URL".

Someone call the cops on this sick sonofabitch.

[Cheesehead Craig]

The local news media here in Minneapolis won't show the pics or discuss them as the source isn't credible given it's just some guys blog. To play devil's advocate, there's nothing on those photos to prove they belong to Favre other than this blogger saying so.

I've sprained my ankle worse than that any number of times and somehow everyone expects me to get up off my ass and take care of them when I do. Where's my $12 mil? I've also noticed that the older I get, the easier I bruise....

Maybe you should mouth off less... KIDDING!! KIDDING!!

[Joemailman]

I guess we can all just be thankful Favre didn't have a groin injury...at least most of us are thankful.

And thankful that he did not decide to show the world what a pain in the a** he can be

Wouldn't really be very hard to make up the list.

[MadtownPacker]

Shadow you really gotta be such a bastard? Huh old timer? Those who dont like Favre got the last laugh, simple as that. This forum should return to a place that talks about the draft around this time. You guys dont have anything knowledgable to say anymore? I can get this info from drunk homeboys at a party. Come through with that nitty gritty shit like back in the days cuz this is tired BS from both sides of this debate.

You got any Packers news/talk Shadow or you just got BS?
