FAVRE: Good Vibes Thread

[MOBB DEEP]

hey SC (or some1 else), where the heck is madtown?

i been away for a while (as cpk says, i only surface to slurp lord favre) and dont know if he threw in the towel tryna keep this place reputable...

He sold the place and vamoosed.

thats hilarious SC

are u serious tho?

i recall him being exasperated in a PM he sent me during FIRST farve fiasco; askn me to be a promoter of peace...,lol

Gunakor,why on earth should Brett feel any loyalty to GB? GB certainly showed Brett no loyalty. I strongly disagree with you that GB did more for Favre than he did for them. There is absolutely NO loyalty in pro sports anymore. So why blame the player?

GB showed Brett no loyalty? Really?

SIXTEEN SEASONS he played here!

Brett would have no SB ring if Ron Wolf hadn't traded a first round pick for him to get him out of Atlanta. Brett would not be living in such a luxurious estate as he is if not for the $100+ million dollars we paid him. He probably had the most fun he's ever had over that time too, having built a great many lasting personal relationships with players and coaches within the Packers organization. And you can't figure out why he should feel any loyalty at all?

Not kidding. Joe the Administrator is our new owner. I'm pretty sure Madtown told him to keep a very close eye on you.

Re: Article

Is there a better candidate for the starting QB job already in Minnesota?

There is not. And that in itself is an indictment of the entire Viking front office. When a 39 year old who has been unable to finish seasons strongly and is coming off an arm injury, is you best hope for a deep playoff run, then you have misplayed your hand.

SIGH.....

I think it was a mutually beneficial arrangement where both parties prospered.

[SnakeLH2006]

Seriously...Not to sound Noobish, but who's this Favre guy anyway?

[MOBB DEEP]

great point, tho, that time heals all wounds; guess he's banking on that with the ardent packerbackers who want him to fail and care more about his "legacy" than they should.....

"Handoff to Peterson" should be the favorite phrase of Minnesotans this year.

In your opinion, whats a good remedy?

it appears there's no "decent" solution then unless favre just swallows pride and stays retired

You nailed it.

Why should he stay retired if he wants to play?

People say Favre is crazy for continually changing his mind. I think the fans are far crazier for thinking he should make choices to fulfill their wet dreams.

I'm not going to get into this one again Harlan. I really, REALLY don't think he's coming back just because he wants to play. This has nothing to do with my wet dreams. It has to do with respect for the game and the team that made Favre what he is, which is MUCH more than he was before 1992. He should not feel the need to seek revenge, and since he does, he should just swallow his pride and decide not to seek it anyway.

I don't think he's coming back just for the love of the game, but I'm not sure he's coming back (or "thinking about" coming back) just to screw TT either. If that was his only motivation, I don't think he would have done the Joe Buck interview, which seems to be part of Favre's strategy of playing hardball with the Vikings ownership.

Just is the wrong word to use in either sentence. He's not just coming back for this or just coming back for that.

Part of him is seeking revenge, and that is still wrong IMO. He shouldn't feel the need to, even a little bit, given the mutually beneficial relationship he had with the Packers for 16 seasons. As messy as the divorce ended up being, it still should have been left at that IMO, ironically for the same reasons that Favre supporters use to continue to support him - 16 great seasons as a Green Bay Packer.
