Favre says it's all a rumor (1 Viewer)

[scott72]

Imagine that. A Favre thread and your ugly mug is all over it. I can't figure out if your blinded by your hate for Favre, or you're a closet fan. You truly sound silly always stalking every thread that comes up. Get a life..

Well, I must say that post is far from being excellent to someone, Scott. For shame!

Maybe if you ever had something intelligent to add my attitude towards you would be different. I don't expect it to change anytime soon. The constant whining and crying about Favre this and Favre that really gets old. If you hate soooo much, why feel the need to infiltrate every thread regarding Favre?

This is a collection of some of the earlier greatest hits from the favre is not a drama queen defenders of the earth.

hmm

Phurfur-You are listening to the media too much and not to what Favre says. Taking one sentence out of context and quoting it is what causes all this commotion. I think the problem lies in the fact that Favre is a good interview and makes the job of reporters easier. They are the ones that can't let go! Favre will not be back, bank it.

Sho nuff-People will continue to write about him and talk about him for a while....and as long as they do. Idiots on message boards will keep calling Favre a drama queen for doing nothing but mow his lawn and agree to an interview with an old friend who writes for a small newspaper.

QUOTE (Banger @ Apr 9 2008, 10:54 AM)

I'm a big Favre fan but enough is enough. Make a decision and stick with it.

Sho nuff-How has he not?

Good lord some of you are dense.

Sho nuff-Not really.

His retirement is just that...a retirement.

He is done.

He has informed the team of this.

He is at home...not preparing for the season.

Sho nuff- I think his chances of playing next year are slim to none.



you guys are such suckers!

Good column in the GB Press-Gazette:

Brett Favre’s “itch” has developed into a full-blown media rash over the past week-and-a-half.

Everyone in the Packers’ locker room is praying Favre returns

It would be foolish for anyone to say publicly he doesn’t want Favre back, but there is a substantial faction of younger players who are eager to play with Rodgers. Favre is at least a decade older than all but six guys on the roster. He dressed in his own locker room. He had minimal social interaction with teammates. Rodgers is one of the guys, and plenty of them are pulling for him to get his shot.

That's how I spell DIVA.And now you'll get some Favre fanatic try some circular logic saying he earned his own locker room yet argue that the Packers have a right to move on in spite of all that Favre has done for the franchise.

What? WHAT? Now, listen, if you want to say that the Packers have every right to start Rodgers, I totally agree with you. Favre retired. He said he was done, and the Packers cheerfully entered the "Rodgers" era, for however long they planned on that era to last, I don't know. I do know they won't settle for less than one offseason though.

But that is the only reason that is fair to say that the Packers organization should move on. Do the Packers owe it to Brett Favre to take him back? He rebounded his play last year and took the team to the NFC Championship. He helped turn the franchise around, and now that he's turned wishy washy posters want to forget about him. People are finally admitting that Favre's acted childish now that he's not their QB, where before it wasn't such a big deal that he's been uncertain about retiring. He's still not sure, what's changed? I haven't seen somebody get denied this much since Peter said he didn't know Jesus.

An interesting counter point to the Packer fans who state that "real" fans have all moved on to the Rodgers era: ever since the story broke, each Sportsnation poll asking whether or not Favre should play for the Pack this year Wisconson has consistently said Yes. So either it's only women and casual fans living in Green Bay or the truth is not as some have tried to paint here.

If I see another Packer fan say the Pack should take him back, trade Rodgers and see how the team does with Favre "for a year or two" so Brohm can start I'm probably going to vomit from laughing. Favre has had trouble deciding if he's wanted to play for years, trading away Rodgers on the hopes that he might come back and stick around for two more is outrageous. What if he gets frustrated with poor performance and quits halfway through the season? It's obvious that for such a tough guy, he's turned quite simple and I would not count on him to be able to keep his composure for a full season.

The only reason the Packers want Favre to stay retired is so they don't have to trade him. They're playing it awfully close to the belt now, with all the talk of "legacy" and subtlelly trying to remind Brett that retirement was what he'd asked for. It doesn't help them any to have him in the league, and that is the same reason now Favre fans are also wishing he'd stay retired. The team has moved on because it had to. The fans that have moved on because he has betrayed them now have to act like Rodgers is the one they want, instead of the hand that they have been forced to play. And to spite him, they say things like the Packer organization doesn't need him any longer. Ouch. The QB that turned the franchise around has officially become chopped liver.

What a mess of a situation.

But I thought all of this was a rumor fabricated by the big, bad media?

Somebody does not comprehend things very well

if they think anyone has said the entire story is a rumor. I don't think even Brett was trying to say that.

Hmmm.... that would be YOU

No...I comprehend quite a bit more than some of you people.Some are trying to claim that I, or any of these packer fans (well, most of them) have been claiming that every bit of this story is rumor.

I have never...i repeat NEVER...made that claim.

You really love to play both sides then. If you aren't fielding that claim in each and every one of your posts where your sole argument is "unnamed sources" and noting Favre's texted statement that it was "just a rumor" then what are you doing?

No...I comprehend quite a bit more than some of you people.Some are trying to claim that I, or any of these packer fans (well, most of them) have been claiming that every bit of this story is rumor.I have never...i repeat NEVER...made that claim.

One person said that you're claiming every bit is a rumor. Instead, most would probably say that you're claiming a whole lot of this is just rumors. We can run through the list of comments that either explicitly or implicitly sent that message:

Where did "he" expressly say he IS coming back?

Yawn...sorry that I prefer to deal in facts rather than bash players because of rumors.

The post where King lists no sources as to why he believes that and only stated that he thinks Favre's agent "could" ask for him to be removed by as early as next week?

The problem is...many don't "know things"...but they are speculating based on a small tidbit of leaked information from an unnamed source.

Im not saying he did not say he had an itch...I have already conceded that...its the rest of the speculation that I am talkinga bout. None of them have verified those other statements. (not even Mort).

I have a problem believing most unnamed sources in this manner.

Link to who the sources were?

The point is someone just claimed that it was "sources close to Favre"...fact is we don't know if they were Favre sources or team sources...get it.

 

[billymays]

favre asks for release.

mortensen "rumor"

green bay

hello minnesota

 

[T Bell]

I asked this last year when Mortenson declared Eli out for a month when the Giants staff said he was fine and would play, which of course he was and he did. Can we make a rule that any "rumor" floated by Chris Mortenson not be posted until it is confirmed by three other sources, none of which are associated with him? The guy just makes stuff up. Seriously, of the last 4-5 big stories Mort has broken, all of them have turned out to be false.

[bcr8f]

The Tampa Tribune believes Bucs coach Jon Gruden will "be first in line" in the Brett Favre bidding if the Packers take him off reserve/retired.

Gruden got Bucs management to give up a draft pick for waffling QB Jake Plummer, so think of what he'd get them to part with for Favre. We're not sure if Gruden and Favre were at all close when Gruden coached the Green Bay wide receivers from 1994-1995, but they do have some history. For what it's worth, we don't think there's a better fit across the league.

I think he possibly has fueled some of it...but 90% of it (at least) is fueled by the media running with anything they hear about Favre because they know it will sell, people will read it, and people will discuss it.

This is trade/contract negotiation territory. It's best to avoid just about anything agents and most team reps say. I find all this entertaining but there isn't much substance here.

But bring on the Bucs and Vikings trade talks. This ought to be good.



The Vikings need a QB and Favre is available.

Sho nuff- I think his chances of playing next year are slim to none.



you guys are such suckers!

"These stories of Brett Favre even existing are vicious lies promoted by the Great Satan, this 'Mort', and they are only stated to harm the Green Bay Packers."

"These stories of Brett Favre even existing are vicious lies promoted by the Great Satan, this 'Mort', and they are only stated to harm the Green Bay Packers."

Priceless.

 

[ScottyFargo]

For what it's worth, Cris Carter on ESPN said today he is sure that Favre will return and play for the Packers this year.

And then on Friday, after Brett asked for his release, Cris said he'd play, but not for the Green Bay Packers.

Do you all not understand the word rumor?

It does not mean whatever that was leaked would not amount to be true...it meant at the time it was not yet confirmed.

Enjoy it...or should I post some "owned" icon.

at you thinking you've got such an inside grasp on the nuances of Favre's decision-making as to whether to return that you could discern what was rumor and what was fact, and when. It seems to me that you got caught speculating, turned out wrong, and are now on this ridiculous crusade to clear your name. Let it go.

Where do I claim to have any inside grasp.A bunch of things were posted last week that were rumor...I called it as much. I did not claim they were not true...did not claim anyone was lying. Just stated it was rumor at the time.

Speculating? I did no speculating...in fact, I was saying it was a rumor to those that were speculating.

Maybe you should go back and read that definition again.

I will ask you a direct question.

Last week, when Mort and others were reporting about Favre...was it rumor at the time...or a confirmed fact?

I doubt you will give a simple yes or no answer though.

Sho Nuff...you made a bold call that could've gone either way. You were wrong. It's really no biggie. I highly doubt it's referenced in your eulogy.

The thing is...I was not wrong.Nowhere did I claim since last week that he was not coming back...that he had not talked to McCarthy.

I stated facts...that what was being said was a rumor based on unnamed sources. That we had to wait and see how it played out.

I think people just love to jump on things like that though...its hilarious at all of the denial and hate towards factual statements...

Would it be better if I stated others were proven right in their speculation? Sure...they were...does not make what I stated wrong at all...as I did not oppose their opinion...just that it was at that point opinion about a rumor. Nothing more.

We all know why you wanted the reports dismissed as simple rumors. It was the same reason that Favre himself tried to call them rumors, deflection.Seriously, I'll give you credit for being stubborn, but you can give it up now. I understand the frustration of supporting Favre through all the B.S. for the last several offseasons, so take whatever comfort you can in bashing him now. It's his fault, he turned you into this.

No, you were only posting that he wouldn't come back to play in every other thread since he retired. Back in March. So he made you wrong, like, a lot over this. OMFG I just caught that! Did you really, really think that and then type it out? GOOD GOD.

Wanted them dismissed...not really...just made the factual statement that they were rumors. At least you admit what I was saying, eventhough you are spinning and trying to claim you knew what I meant.Can you answer the question? I did not figure you would.I will only bash his waffling since March.

You must think this is an argument you can win because you called them rumors because they were unverified by a named source. What was your point in trying to be consistent with calling them rumors? Did you not know that we all could consider them as rumors? Well, thank you for the vocabulary lesson, I now know exactly what a rumor is. That's an accomplishment you can take pride in in the face of the fact that you were wrong.You wanted it discounted. You demanded to know the names. You pointed out Chris Mortenson as being incorrect about Eli Manning's injury last year.These are the actions of a man in denial. And now that you know the score, you want Favre benched, or traded to Miami where he will finish his career in obscurity. Who's being real here? You really don't think you're as transparent as cellophane? Get over it.

Where did I post that he would not come back and play in the last week once these rumors started? Please quote it.No doubt I am wrong about saying it back in March...never have denied that. But that is not what this crap is about...its about your spin after the fact and blasting me for calling a rumor a rumor.

Yes...people love to jump on things like this on message board and twist the meaning.

Someone speculates...someone else claims its a rumor or opinion...immediately people jump and try to argue that the 2nd person in this example was calling the first person wrong or taking the other side of that opinion. Its not what happened. Its that simple.

No denial at all. Simple factual statements that you cannot refute.

I don't care if I win or not...just exposing your ignorance.Umm...they were rumors because they were unverified...that is the very definition of a rumor...what about that don't you understand?Apparently you don't know what a rumor is since you claimed the statements I made in this thread and in others over the last week were all wrong.I asked the names when people made a claim that it was a source close to Brett (when that had not been stated by any of the reporters at the time). Again...take something in context.I pointed out that not all rumors are true...that Mortenson has a history of indeed being wrong...meaning very simply to let it play out.Now that it is a fact he is wanting to return..I am not handing him the reigns to the team.Looks like you need to get over it...you post an awful lot about Favre for a Vikings fan who claims to not even want him on your team.

Ummm...my statements were factual when they were spoken...the others were speculation that turned out to be true.For some reason, you think only one side can be right in this.

Nowhere did I claim the reports were false...if you think I did so...find it...post the quote and link and I will gladly admit to being wrong...until then, you are on the losing side of this argument with your claims.
