Brett Favre- The Movie

[Gunakor]

Favre fucked the Packers over

How exactly did he fuck over the Packer team? Even going back to the beginning if he wanted to be a complete jerk he would have showed up on the practice field and caused ALL kinds of media craziness. He didn't do that.

By openly sharing information with the Lions. It doesn't matter that the Packers still won. It is the fact that he did it that is pathetic.

You know nothing about football first there is no proof he discussed anything of value and second I have yet to see one former player or coach on any network who is dissing Favre because of this, many have said if he called them he would look bad but otherwise there was nothing wrong legally or morally to what he did he owes the Packers absolutely nothing as many of you have so loudly explained neither do they owe him anything such as respect or a starting job. Certain people in the media can't stand to have him out of the news they need to grow up just as all of you and sometimes Brett also.

There is a locker room of current players who are dissing him over this. Read Woodson's comments?

And there is proof that the Packer game was at least part of that conversation. Favre admitted it, so there is no disputing it anymore. It happened. As many have already said, including myself, it does not matter the substance of the Packer related part of that conversation. The mere fact that it took place is enough. What should have happened when Millen asked for advice against the Packers is Favre should have told Millen that he has many former teammates over in Green Bay whom he respects and is loyal to, so no advice whatsoever - ABSOLUTELY nothing rather than next to nothing - and then went back to the topic of going hunting. The Packer part of that conversation should only have lasted long enough for Favre to tell Millen that no advice would be given.

And let me explain the moral violation here. Favre sharing info about the Packers to the Jets in preparation for a game between the Packers and the Jets is just fine. I'd expect it and even encourage it, whatever you can do to give YOUR team a better chance to win. Favre sharing info with the Lions about the Packers is crossing the line because of the fact that Favre and the Jets do not benefit from a Lions win over the Packers. Favre is not a goddamn Detroit Lion. There is no reason for him to do it, other than a petty vendetta against Ted Thompson and/or Mike McCarthy. Problem here is, a Packers loss is felt by everyone within the organization, not just TT and MM. Donald Driver would have suffered a loss, and it might have had something to do with Brett Favre's betrayal of his former teammates alongside his former coach and GM. No, it's not illegal. But it's unsportsmanlike as hell and extremely immoral.

Well said. I toally agree.

Don't forget the initial denial that he did it; I think that's significant in this case. Just like when he denied the reports that he was considering a comeback, and then soon after announced his comeback. Do we really think that he hadn't already decided at that point and overnight decided to change his mind? What was up with that? Why not just be plain and say, "I'm still thinking about what to do."

The best part is: Even if this did happen, Keyshawn pointed out a very good point: If the conversation occured int hat Favre gave insight into the packers offense, that it actually is very common. In fact, Keyshawn used himself as an example. Players sharing information on former teams is extremely common, and just part of the game.

Besides, when the lions got shelacked by 23 points, does it matter? Even if it happened, which Favre denies it did, who cares? It doesn't make me respect him any less. He felt slighted by the packers. He has every right too feel that way.

Given the situation, I might too. I don't know how sharing information is sabatage when your not on the team anymore. It happens on a daily basis.
