The Patriots lack sportsmanship. I have never disliked a team more than I dislike the Patriots. And I am sure that if Favre were on the Patriots he would not stand for it. I hope they don't win the Superbowl. I hope no Patriot gets the MVP. And I hope this season is a black mark on the legacy of every Patriot play and coach. As far as Brady being the best QB ever, I don't believe it. He is very good, but any QB would look good with that O-Line. I have never seen a QB get the kind of protection Brady is getting. And while his numbers are staggering, he is padding his stats. That makes whatever records Brady sets this year an embarrassment rather than an accomplishment.
YOu've got a lot of hate there, but I just wanted to show you what Favre did two weeks ago, when they beat the Vikes 34-0. Did Favre "not stand for it", or run it up the gut every time? Nope. Up 20-0 in late int he third quarter, he passes for an 8 yard TD to Martin. Does he stop there? Can he sit w/ a 27-0 lead? Not a chance, he came back with a 17 yard strike to marting with about 6 minutes left.
So, Favre will stand for it, as will any QB in the league. We can't compare it to any other blowouts, because the Packers don't have any. Every professional should want to compete. Scoring is the object of the game. If you aint going to try and score, get out of the game.
At that point, he was done and Rodgers came in to run the offense. When/ About 4:000 left, or later than Brady has been in there. Yes, the Pats are doing it every week. I think that's what bothers you more than anything.

TD Ruvell Martin, 8 yd pass from Brett Favre (Mason Crosby kick is good), 2:24. Drive: 10 plays, 69 yards in 4:59
4th Quarter
TD Ruvell Martin, 17 yd pass from Brett Favre (Mason Crosby kick is good), 5:38. Drive: 9 plays, 96 yards in 5:54
To sum it up. Contrary to your assertion, Favre has and does stand for this, whenever he gets the chance.

One of them was even a one yarder. Clearly could have been run in. What is significant aobut this year is that ihere was talk of Marinos record, that's now Mannings, being broken. Favre finished w/ 49 IIRC. Just showing you, Favre stands for the blowout too.
Was there any let up? Nope, next week we see the same thing against Detroit, when the Pack wins 31-3.

Now, is this a foolish waste of time? Absolutely. I'm just showing you that your iguy did the same thing Brady does. Play hard when in the game. That's what one is supposed to do.
