Glazer: Favre helped Detroit gameplan vs. Pack

[Deputy Nutz]

Charles Woodson: "I don't respect that...to seek a team out, because you know I guess you're trying to sabotage this team, you know I don't respect that.....there's no honor in that."

^Woody knows whats up

Jenkins: "I just think it's kind of messed up how he left here. Hasn't talked to Aaron (Rodgers), wished Aaron good luck or anything or like that but he's called everybody else, called Tony Romo and stuff like that.....he could at least show a little more class, a little more respect to Aaron in that regard. "


These guys are PISSED.

Woodson didn't claim Favre did anything, so I guess he would be pissed if he knew for fact that Brett Favre actually contacted the opponent of the Packers and he would be right for being betrayed.

Jenkins brings up some valid points, but come on, the way Favre ended in Green Bay you can't really expect him to have a whole lot of contact with anyone in the Packers lockerroom, especially the guy who the Packers pefered. Jenkins sounded like a petty fan.

True. Down go his posters and pictures in my room. I have no respect for him anymore and I hope he does horrible this year.

I'm leaning towards believing it right now, but glazer REALLY has to bring us a little proof. If not he is a coward and a prick. Making an allegation like this with one unnamed source is simply wrong...even if he 100% believes the source.

If he can drop this bomb with little verification what is to stop someone from doing worse. What if a player on the Lions really hates favre so he called glazer under anonymity and made this up. We need a little more than one unnamed source or glazers should have sat on it.

I disagree. It's no secret that he has beef with TT, but to throw his entire ex teammates to the curb like this, I dunno. There has to be more to it.

Agree. And why do all these articles say "sources report"? Who are the sources? Glazer needs to either tell the whole story or shut up. For all we know, the "source" could be a poster from PR.

The above statement about Brett having a beef with TT reminded me of something I read recently. Remember the brothers with the bringbackbrett website? They were selling t-shirts "Fire TT". I read that 3 or 4 weeks ago Brett wrote them and asked them to stop selling the shirts. (assuming it was because it was connected to the bring back brett stuff and using his name)

No matter how he felt about Packer management, I just can't see him doing something like this.

In any event, it would be nice if people would wait until all the details surface before they start wishing horrible things for him.

The sports tonight reported that a second team has confirmed talking to Favre about the Packers offense. The reporter said there would be more on the story tomorrow.

If true, this could get ugly, and could really damage Favre's place in Packer history for the time being. Over time it will be forgotten, but it could take a long time.

that was a legal issue...if brett didn't write that letter he would have had a hard time stopping others from using his name for profit later...it had nothing to do with him being decent, or doing the right thing. that being said I do want to see how glazer responds to bretts denial

What show is that exactly? No offense, Ive never heard of it...HBO perhaps?

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think the story sounds very fishy.

I doubt there will be any satisfying conclusion, the story will just fade away with no definitive word. Favre's reputation has been besmirched a little bit, like with any accusation. But the story will be forgotten.

Poor Brett. Interceptions always the recievers fault. Reporters all out to get him. Fans wishing (insert extreme drama) horrible, horrible things on him, ooohhh *fingers tingling*.

We might as well hang him on the cross, call him god the son and write a holy book about him since he's down here taking gods wrath for all of us.

[Bossman641]

I don't feel like going back and looking up everything, but hasn't Glazer been correct on just about everything "Brett" he has reported? I believe he's always been one of the first to break th stories and has also been right on them.

[sharpe1027]

The Lions have yet to deny it. If it was NOT true, wouldn't they immediately shut it down?

[Partial]

I've given it some more thought.

I don't agree with Brett. It would be a totally different story if he gave his own team info. It'd be a different story if they sought him out even.

But to seek out another team, thats bush league.

I'm sure Sharper gave all the Packers hand signals to the Vikes, but he was on their team. He didn't call up the bears and give them the information as well.

Evidently Jason Wilde has confirmed this is in fact true. I am far too preoccupied with school to find that though.

I am not sure they care about Favre's legacy - but you would still think they would do the right thing.

I found this all difficult to believe at first. But I am getting a bad feeling about this that it is true. Given his Van Sustren interview and the 5hr meeting with MM where Brett wouldn't stop talking about his feelings and the past when MM wanted to talk about how BF would fit into the current picture.

Good grief Brett, what the hell are you thinking? This entire mess is so much reminding me of my divorce. She gave up, I divorced, she changed her mind, I was already dating a lingerie model, she rammed her vehicle into mine, etc.

Who would have thought NFL's 'iron man' was such a sensitive and insecure kid?

[sharpe1027]

Nah, wasn't even considering Favre's legacy. I meant that the Lions look worse if the story is true. They were given every (unfair?) advantage to win and still can't pull off the victory. Pathetic. Not to mention it is more ammunition for all the Detrioit fans that are already fed up with a horrible team.

If it was not true, they would be best served to shut it down immediately.
