As of half, I'll be charitable and go with, "Exposed."

I really didn't like that interview. Not looking good for 1 more year, eh?

He is getting surgery on his ankle tomorrow (New Years Day) ? Sounds like he wants to play next year.
Where would I rank Favre right now? Okay, here we go. I say 10. My order:
1. Peyton Manning. 2. Tom Brady. 3. Drew Brees. 4. Carson Palmer. 5. Marc Bulger. 6. Matt Hasselbeck. 7. Philip Rivers. 8. Donovan McNabb. 9. Tony Romo. 10. Brett Favre. 11. Ben Roethlisberger. 12. Matt Leinart. 13. Vince Young. 14. Chad Pennington. 15. Jay Cutler.
That ought to get the arguments started.
Now, Favre threw for the seventh-most yards in his career with Donald Driver and a bunch of John Does playing wideout. His tight end, Bubba Franks, has fallen off the face of the earth; he played like he should have been on the side of a milk carton in 2006. Favre was sacked 21 times in 657 dropbacks, so he certainly still has the escapability that a quarterback needs. You think he had a bad year? I think you're wrong.

desertBrew said:I think the SI guy was talking about 06 since he said "right now" productivity not future prospects, potential etc. I'd have it pretty close to that except for Romo and Favre I'd probably switch. Romo and Young could have been honeymoon stuff. Or put Young where Romo was. Romo came in like gang busters and then became quite "common".
Dude said:LOL...unreal.
Oh, I don't know..your FATHER dying might be a good reason. Cheese and rice.

It's you packies that just don't get it. That post was written in response to Favre putting on the waterworks for HIMSELF and HIS career. It was after this past season ended, and he was being asked if this was it for him, and his response was to cry and whimper what all you cheeseheads see as manly, steel tears. To the rest of us, it is just sad.Dude said:I know...comments like that crapola just make me shake my head.
It must hurt SO bad for the "haters" to loathe a Hall of Famer so much. I just don't understand it.
Fiery Sword said:His family issues have nothing to do with the criticism. If I lost my job, I wouldn't cry to the world about the fact that my 26 year-old, signle mother cousin and friend was just diagnosed with cancer (true). Same thing with Favre. I guess Favre is just more emotional, and unstable, than me. Enough with the pity.....he's a crybaby.
I will stand by my comment that I've seen him cry on TV more than ANY other athletein ANy pro or college sport. We'll have to go down to Little League to find an equal.![]()
