oh for the love of God here we go again; does this rally frickin surprise anybody ? Is this actually news ? Who gives a shit at this point.

Not that anybody in here would want to hear anythig positive about Favre...but here it is.

Brett and Deanna Favre recently flew in and came about 45 minutes from my home to visit a family with a very sick young one per their request. I heard about it last week but didn't bother posting it in here because those who still have some liking for him have left here.

The experience was posted by somebody on youtube if anybody cares about anything positive

Favre exuding class toward the Packers once again...

http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/columns/story?columnist=wilbon_michael&id=5941769

What a dick.

I was starting to warm to Favre a little, especially after seeing him get beat up so much lately. Not after hearing this.

[Joemailman]

Favre still has negative feelings toward the Packers. A lot of Packer fans have very negative feelings toward Favre. Fair enough. But when Favre makes a comment reflecting his negative feelings toward the Packers, does that make him a dick? Any more of a dick than the people who feel he got what he deserved when he gets injured?

[Bretsky]

Just because his dislike for GB has been out of the news lately does not mean anything has changed.

Favre is bitter toward the leaders of Green Bay and does not want them to be successful; water is wet. Maybe the former will change someday but it isn't happening anytime soon.

If you want to dislike Favre for being bitter to Green Bay or TT and MM, or for being a douche...or all of the above that is your decision and I can respect that.

But I'm shocked if any of this would surprise anybody

Favre is a text sending, flip flopping, int throwing, over the hill, stayed one year too long, piece of monkey shit!

hoosier, I didn't write this...sometimes the quote works, sometimes it doesn't.......

On Monday night, you may have noticed Brett Favre wearing a fifth No. 4 in addition to the four that he already adorns on his purple home jerseys. You may have also noticed that the number was backward. This wasn’t a mistake, in fact, there is a very good reason behind it.

It all started on Friday, when Favre and his wife Deanna flew to Milwaukee to visit with a young fan named Anderson, who happens to be dying from a brain tumor. Brett was excused from practice and meetings by head coach Leslie Frazier in order to visit with the young man.

The Favres spent three hours with five-year-old Anderson and his family before heading back to the Twin Cities.

“Great family… Packer fans.” said Favre. “Kind of a conflicting household because this young man, Anderson, had become a Vikings fan as well. And since the brain tumor, he started writing his fours backwards.”

Before Monday night’s game, Favre decided to honor Anderson by wearing a towel with his number on it.

“Right before the game, Deanna sent this towel down with this backwards ‘4’ on it knowing that I would know what that would be about…that was in honor of him.”

What Favre needs is a PR person, and it doesn’t even have to be a very good one. Basically, someone to control his mouth; kind of like Holmgren with his playing.

Yesterday, why couldn’t he have just said that he was playing because that’s what he is paid to do, and that’s how his dad raised him………but it’s always got to be that he is doing it for the fans or for his team, blah, blah, blah…..oh the martyr Brett.

That's really smart PR. I wonder if Ari suggested it...

[mraynrand]

The good thing is that there are still two games left in the season. I know it's highly unlikely at this point, but Favre could still get knocked out of up to two more games. Keep hope alive!

[Pugger]

He is the starting QB of a divisional rival for most likely 2 more weeks so there is nothing horrible about dissing him. Wanting injury upon him is way over the top but he will be long gone and back on his tractor in a few days, hopefully for good.
