FAVRE: Good Vibes Thread

[Fritz]

Wouldn't it be cool if Favre, Deanna, Ted, and Mike all went on Dr. Phil?

Ted: "It hurts me when you talk like that, Brett."

Deanna: "Don't listen to him, Brett, he's a liar! I saw him with Aaron Rodgers before you retired!"

Dr. Phil: "Is that true, Ted? Were you seeing Aaron before you broke up with Brett?"

Ted: "Well, yes, but we were only seeing each other because of work. That's all it was, really."

Brett's eyes fill with tears.

Brett: "I . . . I so want to believe you . . . but I just can't any more. It hurts, man. It just hurts."

Deanna hugs him.

I was trying to start a perfectly good feud with PB about Favre's hair, and you guys mess it all up.

But I'm not backing down. I don't care what the spigots say. Favre looks like a moran (thanks, Nutz) with that close-shaven look. He'd look oodles better with a long grey pony tail.

Or maybe a mullet. I'd be willing to compromise that much. I'm a rational person.

I don't know what the rest of this hullabaloo about retirement and deadlines, but I can tell you this: A source inside the Favre Family Beauty Salon told me that if he were to grow his hair out to a ponytail or mullet as has been suggested by some supporters of terrorism, that Favre would look less like Fabio and more like the Crypt Keeper.

Yes, you have heard it here first, part of Favre's short crop haircut was to support his wife, but also was a Matt Lauer attempt to conceal some "shortcoming" in the follicle department. I don't even think the most venomous Favre pineapples would want that. Stay tuned for more scalp coverage. Brought to you by Propecia.

Ha! That sounds like more Mortenson/Werder ESPN crap to me, PB!

Didn't you even hear? Chilly told KFAN just today that there are no team rules about haircuts and facial hair. If Favre wants a ponytail, he can have one.

I smell Dick Cheney's involvement in this, too.

Fabio? C'mon. Who you trying to kid? Favre with a ponytail would look like any number of good, red-blooded middle-aged American men who want to remind the world of how tough they used to be, how rebellious and devil-may-care they were before they became Dads and faithful husbands, before that bald spot started spreading out.

He gets himself a Harley and rides into Minneapolis with it, and it's all good.

But BRett's pilot has now refuted this post Deanna rufuses to let Brett gow his hair out to a ponytail or muillet. He goes on to say that Brett is angry and will appear on Greta Van Sisteren later this week to air his grivences about Deanna his hair then.

Maybe T2 could travel to Hattiesburg and stand under Brett's window with an iPod iLife speaker set and play a Peter Gabriel song in commemoration of what they used to have together?

Or Brett could write the pineapples a sonnet:

Alas! 'tis true, I have gone here and there,
And made my self a Jet to the view,
Gored mine audibles, sold cheap jeans most dear,
Made old offences of Mangenius new;
Most true it is, that I have looked on DVD
Askance and strangely; but, by all above,
The endzone camera angle is best
These bench backups scare my heart with youth,
And McGinn proved thee my best of cannon.
Now all is done, have what shall have no end:
Mine appetite I never more will retire
On newer proof, to try an older fan,
A god in pads, to whom I am confined.
Then give me welcome, next team my heaven the best,
Even to thy pure and most most loving spigots.

When making a cultural reference, it is best to actually reference the person correctly.

Re: Favre

I guess that's where we differ. I don't view Ted Thompson as "The Packers" anymore than I viewed him as "The Seahawks". He's just like the players. It's strictly a business to him. It's a job, no more no less.

Here, may-be you'll understand the hypocrisy behind your opinion with this analogy. If Teddy got fired tomorrow do you really think he'd turn down his next job offer out of loyalty to the Packer organization and it's fans? Hell no. And if by chance, he got a job as the Bears GM or Vikes GM do you really think he would'nt savor the chance to beat us?

If Ted got fired tomorrow, does Brett just quit? Or does he keep trying to beat the PACKERS? Does he just lay an egg in that game because he no longer has a beef with anyone on the team?

Re: Favre

I can understand those backing Favre and wanting him to play purely for the entertainment value it provides. This is the viewpoint Mobb has. This is also the view the article provides, "Favre is still in the top half of QB's, it'll be fun to watch, let him come back." It's hard to argue with that logic and I can't disagree with it.

As a PACKER fan though, I can't understand anyone backing Favre because they want to see him stick it to TT or because they want to see him do well and win a SB. That is in direct conflict of what a Packer fan should want.

This BS of Favre is'nt a Packer anymore so as a Packer fan you have to hate him is INSANE! It's a very childish and in-mature attitude. How do you throw out all the fantastic things Favre did as a Packer and what he meant to this organization just because he wants to continue to play?

Don't get me wrong. The LAST thing I ever thought I'd see in my life is Favre as a Viking. It's almost as bad as Favre playing for the Bears. However, the real truth is the only loyalty that exists in sports is a fan's loyalty to his team. To the players, it's nothing more than a business. It's a job plain and simple. Not one of them gives a flying fuck about what uniform they are wearing.

It should not matter to one Packer fan what Brett Favre does or who he plays for anymore than who ANY other player plays for. As Packer fans, we need to worry about one thing and only one thing- The Green Bay Packers.

Nobody has said because Favre ain't a packer you have to hate him.

BTW, labeling anyone childish and "in-mature" is kinda hilarious coming from you:

1. Your posts define irony on that issue
2. You can't even spell immature correctly
3. You label yourself as Cerebral, yet you have trouble spelling, making logical arguments, and create bs strawmen all the time.
4. Your avatar is of 3 naked women....many would find that quite at odds with being cerebral and mature...infact, many would label that childish.

That's about as close to a Partial post as you've ever made ... or that I remember.

Favre wants to play regardless of what TT does; he only knows football

You guys are confusing; this has nothing to do with Favre

Is it anti homeristic to say I have just as much or more faith in MM as a coach that I do with TT as a GM ? I don't get it
