Not to hijack, but I also seem to remember some sort of customizable webpage that you could enter players into (Tomlinson, for example) and it had an accompanying writeup about how he had suffered an injury and was either out for a long while or the rest of the season. Anyone familiar with...

The way this latest drama has transpired certainly speaks to ego, whether you want to acknowledge it or not. There's a big difference between a guy retiring, having second thoughts, and coming back to a team to play. Is that how this latest mess unfolded? I thought not.....TT refused to kiss...

Of course he doesn't want to play for a crappy team. We've seen instances in the past of how he handles adversity when it comes to losing. It is ironic, though, since his whole larger-than-life persona has been built on wails of, "He just LOVES the game! He plays like a kid having fun out...

...and in doing so it's quite evident that Favre wants what HE wants and nothing else, regardless of what collateral damage it may cause others. I liken it to dealing with an insolent 2-year-old, whining and crying over and over and over until she gets her way. The parents either hold their...

:kicksrock: It was only hidden to those who worship the man/team, it seems.....

No, he's not in that realm, but the bottom line is he's acting like a spoiled brat with a serious sense of entitlement here. People don't like that.

...but instead an unabashed Favre/Packer fan. Can't see the forest for the trees, it seems.

Not without a healthy dose of enabling by the man himself......

And the truth lies somewhere in between. Amazing how polarized he makes people isn't it?

But, as your original post reads, it seems that he's the leading reason for getting GB to the playoffs (the effort and play of his teammates notwithstanding), but when he makes mistakes in the playoffs, there are other bigger errors made by others which minimize his gaffes. It comes across as...

Uh oh. A certain someone will be rushing in here to defend Brett's honor in 3......2........1.......... :yes:

So Favre was the main reason for GB's success, but a footnote in their failures? Uh, that's not a very balanced (or objective) view there, sir.....

I think people have moreso soured on Favre because of how he's gone about certain aspects of this "comeback." Could it be some of his teflon coating has finally chipped away? People do have their limits, after all, and him acting like so many of the other spoiled athletes that are out there...

So, in their zeal to put the screws to Minnesota, did they step on their collective crank and open a different can of worms here? And does the charge now become more of a, "Well, we think they talked to Bretty, but we, uh, don't have any specific proof. Can you check their phone records based...

Buddy of mine in the TB area said that one of the local sports radio stations there is reporting Favre to the Bucs could be announced sometime this afternoon or early tomorrow. No other details, though, so take it for what it's worth......
