I'm guessing it won't be the Curious George Lullabyes and other Stories soundtrack...

Maybe the monkeys theme song might belong, kinda goofy like this thread. Also for when it goes insane "I am the walrus" by the bettles would work.

Well, well.

Favre claims he was just misunderstood. That he meant nothing but sincere praise for Rodgers and the organization. That he is gracious and complimentary.

This year has been tremendous in part because that douchebag is no longer in the NFL.

Once again. I tend to cut him some slack on this one. I thought he was dissing McCarthy if anyone.

I'm not surprised Favre is claiming he was misunderstood, I'm just surprised he didn't claim it sooner.

Perhaps then Mr. Favre should explain why he did not win the Super Bowl with the Vikings, because that team too was better than any team he played on in Green Bay, including the Super Bowl teams and the team he last played on in 2007

From 2009:

If Rodgers should have won it earlier, shouldn't Favre have won in 2009?

So Rodgers fell into it, and to believe Favre, it wasn't that big of an accomplishment. Yet, it (winning a Super Bowl) was something he didn't feel up to even with that supposedly loaded roster returning for 2008. By his own words, it was too much pressure for him. From his retirement interview:

So trying to win a Super Bowl in 2008 or 2009 was too tough for him, too much of a challenge for him with all his experience, but something that Rodgers should have stepped in and accomplished as a first or second year starter?

Truth be told, Favre saying that his current team was the best he had ever been on was virtually an annual event for many years in Green Bay. Favre also routinely talked about how difficult winning was in the NFL and that winning the Super Bowl was an extremely difficult task. For him to now degrade the 2010 team's accomplishment in anyway is simply the babblings of a bitter old fool, in my opinion.

Good post.

We've been wrong about Favre for all these years. He's not Hamlet at all.

Favre seems ego-smitten by two things.

1. AR succeeded him. The Packers won the SB while Favre was still on the Vikings with an unsettled grudge, a tarnished reputation and (small) penis pictures floating around the web.

2. The way the Packers were willing to just move on. Favre is so emotionally reactionary right now, he's cutting off his nose to spite his face.


It makes you wonder; is fame and fortune the ultimate punishment on Earth. Is it the demon so hidden, the poison so sweet, you cannot escape without being destroyed? Favre probably should be a sympathy figure with his misery, but he's so damn offensive, he can't even get that. He's too proud of course, but sheesh Brett, let it go.
