Combine all that with his freakish ability to throw from weird angles. Has anyone in the history of the NFL been able throw across the body, going the other way, throwing to the other side of the field the way he does?

Originally posted by MadtownPackerI get Sunday Ticket so I have never bothered to download games. Im sure some lowlife around here can help you though.Originally posted by Tarlam!Mad, where can I download games?
Hmmmm, the great debate: which is better sex or having Sunday ticket?
I love being able to flip to any game and check how my fantasy players are doing. I get to kick back and watch my beloved Packers. I guess I have to vote for Sunday cause after all, it lasts longer!

Anyone prepared to do so, please PM me. Mad knows my private details and Bretsky has spoken to me on the phone. That's obviously not 1000% verified, but, it's more than many of you guys and gals can claim!
SEND ME SOME FILM!!!!
God, I hate begging, I always dribble out of the corner of my mouth when I do.

Re: Sunday Ticket
Well I pay $200 for 4 months of Sunday ticket. How much love will $200 get you? Not 4 months for sure.Originally posted by PacknutHmmmm, the great debate: which is better sex or having Sunday ticket?

Sunday Ticket is the only way to fly. I would get it even if I could see all the Packers games for free.

Tarlam, the favre throws that I think others can't make are as follows:
Reveiver runs a route, gets open for a brief instant, but DBs are closing. the "window of opportunity" to complete the pass is very small in both time and space. The ball has to be a laser. If inaccurate, its intercepted or knocked down, If it takes too long getting there, the DBs have closed or recovered and are in position to intercept or knock the ball down.
In those situations, most QBs don't even throw, because they know that by the time the ball will get there it will be too late. Favre simply unleashes a rope that gets there, leaving the DBs scratching their heads.
You have to see it to appreciate it, especially preseason practices where you can be close to the action. Favre can throw the ball 30 yards without it seemingly ever getting more than 8 feet off the ground. He throws so hard with so much rotation that the ball actually whistles as it spins. Most QBs need more loft on throws that long, and their throws take MUCH longer to get there.
That's the kind of throw that only Favre, Elway and a select few others could make, and Favre maybe even more so than the others, including Elway..

"They caught a lot of breaks," Falcons linebacker Edgerton Hartwell said. "A tipped pass for a touchdown, another tipped pass for a touchdown. A blown coverage for another touchdown. ... Thank God for the preseason, it doesn't count."
Heh, okay Ed...a BLOWN COVERAGE is not a lucky break - that's you guys not doing your job. Just had to get that straightened out
