Word. He's been my favorite player as long as I can remember. It'll be strange to see him in a Jets uniform.

touche, but having read ur previous post, i hope when u say those "fat guys" u have to realize the training they endure in the off season...my friend who plays football at uconn, i talk to the kid almost eveyrday, and hes not in the nfl or anything but the off season work they do there is unreal, like its job pretty much i have soo much respect for football players becuase of what they do to prepare themselves...and this goes for pretty much all professionall athletes.

Honestly dude? How the hell can Favre be your least favorite player? That's just fucking terrible... he is one of the few people in the league who plays because he loves football, and not for the salary. You can tell every time he plays. Don't understand how you can hate on that guy...

Most of the "constant action" is just bullshit kicking or knocking the puck around. Sometimes it takes forever to set up a play. Why not just set it up and get it on? That's the way football works. And when the action isn't on you can chill out and drink your beer, you don't have to worry about missing something. Nothing against soccer or hockey though, I played soccer through highschool and hockey through college, never football though, but I'd rather watch football, there's a profeshionalism and order to it that I find appealing, also the hitting.

I guess its different for people who play or have played football. It's a super fun game after all the conditioning, and hitting/tackling is awesome and takes tough work to get used to and good at. It's the greatest game in the world IMO besides hockey, if there was hockey still in my area I would definitely play. It's just so rewarding when you beat the crap out of somebody in football because it is truly tough hard earned work, grinding it out every play. Makes me wanna play again.

Thats how all sports fans are, they play and like it so they watch it. I highly enjoy watching football because i actually know whats going on and really like watching what plays what teams do, when, etc etc. Thats just me tho. It way more than fat guys hitting each other and an ok "respectable" quarter back, asian_alien...

I played soccer (the real football) in high school... probably the most fun shit ever.

You get to fuck around so much with the ball and just kinda have fun with whatever. Half the game isnt as serious as it looks. You just have fun the entire time, and theres TONS of times to rest and hang out.

and scoring a big goal? Let me just tell you... its almost as good as getting to have sex with jessica alba or someone way hot like that...

Such triumph..



It would probably be similar scoring a touchdown, or hitting a homerun... but then again... I played defense in soccer.. so scoring a goal was like one in a million.

I sit in the dairy state right now, wondering what the fuck has happened.  It went from everything being chill and him retired and a new start for the pack, to a huge ordeal in which he comes back from retirement and joins up with the jets.  What the fuck....

Yep.  It went from him ending on a solid season with the team he has become a legend with, to tip toeing back into the league and joining with a random team and then it's going to be him having two terrible seasons and then retiring on a shitty note.

This whole thing reminds me of Reggie White...  had many great seasons with the pack, retired, came back and tried to play with the Panthers, said fuck it, and retired again after a season back in the NFL.  RIP Reggie.

I think Favre should not have made his retirement choice so early, or should just stay at home.

My dad has had season tickets for the Packers since the day I was born and I have been to atleast one game a season since I was 3.  This whole situation just flat out sucks.

damn, the jets suck.  I wanted him to go to a decent team because it would be awesome to see him come and beat the packers, but probably not with the jets.

As a patriots fan I couldn't be happier, I wanted Favre to go to the JEST so bad. He is the single most over rated player in the NFL right now.

He has one good year in seven seasons, and suddenly he's going to turn around an awful Jets team? The media, in its typical fashion, glosses over the fact that said season is most likely an anomaly. Just look at the stats, they tell you everything you need to know. Over 50% of his passing yardage last year was YAC. His receivers comprised the best overall YAC gaining group in the NFL, better even than our accomplished group of pass catchers. Add in an excellent offensive line and a ground game that was dominant for the second half of the season, and you have a recipe for quarterback success, whether that QB was a journeyman or a legend. If you look at any of the statistics that evaluate contributions in terms of wins added, Favre was average at best.

I can't wait to watch Favre and Mangini butt heads as he throws interception after interception in typical gunslinger fashion. I only hope this doesn't give our secondary too much confidence, after we play the jets in week two they might just book their ticket to Hawaii.

Favre's time in New York will be rocky, and will ultimately lead to Mangini's exit and another rebuilding effort. I'll take the always forward-looking while still competing Patriots any day.

i think this was a pretty good move for the pack. they trade an essentially retired QB for a conditional draft pick. im not so sure favre will have a good year, after running the west coast offense every year for the last 17 or so years he has to learn a completely different playbook with unfamiliar personnel and management, pperforming at the level he did last year will be no easy task. i would love to see brett do well, it would be really awesome to see favre beat the pats, those dirty cheaters.but i am really excited to see how rodgers handles this packers team. i think he can have a good year, barring any injuries. it really would have been exciting to see brett favre play the packers though. oh yeah, if the jets trade favre to the vikings, they get 3 first round draft pics ahaha.

favre isn't that good. he has so many interceptions and as stated above almost all his pass yards were YAC. i do have respect for him though. correction, did.

i'm a jets fan, and while we do need a solid qb like favre, im not really sure how he's gonna mesh with the team. he doesn't have the same history that testevede and pennington had. the jets need a strong and uniting leader, and i'm not sure that favre can lead a team like the jets in heart and on the field. gotta hope for the best.
