LOL! Well said!

I'd be happy to wreck the Vikings' 2010 season for $10-15M. :)

That's not right, an incompletion results in a 58 yard field goal attempt.

He -should- have ran though. I think he would have gotten the 5 yards back, and given them a chance at a -long shot- 52 or 53 yard field goal.

What he tried to do was complete a desperation pass to put them in much better field goal position, knowing that even an INT would not hurt them, so long as it wasn't returned for a TD.

So again, Brett Favre is hardly the reason the Vikings lost.

If by "wreck it" you mean lose in OT in the NFC Championship game, i am sure that most Vikings fans would be happy for him to "wreck" their season that way next year too. :D

Heck, most Packers fans seem happy with a first round wild card loss and finishing 2nd in their division.

Yeah, the Vikings incredible record for the past 10 years has shown that!!
I guess you just have to know about football , and of course played football to ever understand Favre. And the teams he has been on never ever had a stand out receiver, yet he still kept them in contention all those years. I guess you would have thrown for a million yards and 8 td's in that game. N.O. knows how lucky they are.Too bad for them it is only going to last a couple weeks :D.

I just ran across this on the net:
-----------------------------------------
God asks Peyton Manning first: “What do you believe?”

Peyton thinks long and hard, looks God in the eye, and says, “I believe
in hard work, and in staying true to family and friends. I believe in
giving. I was lucky, but I always tried to do right by my fans.”

God can’t help but see the essential goodness of Manning, and offers him
a seat to his left.

Then God turns to Aaron Rodgers and says, “What do you believe?”

Aaron says, “I believe passion, discipline, courage and honor are the
fundamentals of life. I, too, have been lucky, but win or lose; I’ve
always tried to be a true sportsman, both on and off the playing
fields.”

God is greatly moved by Aaron’s sincere eloquence and he offers him a
seat to his right.

Finally, God turns to Brett Favre: “And you, Brett, what do you
believe?”

Brett replies, “I believe you’re in my seat.”

Hahahahahahahaha!

Is Favre still the corporate spokeman for Remington?

He can't be all bad. :)

Grog 01-28-2010 12:34 PM

Maybe I didn't make my point. I love watching a hard hitting game. I'm just saying that when a team decides their best chance of winning is to go out and intensionally wound the other teams quarter back, so he can't play, is just wrong. Like baseball, you watch a game to see the great players do their thing, not get walked every time they are up to bat, or maybe the pitcher can hit him hard enough in the head to take him out of the game, good plan.

As for punching the ball. It just reminded me of my daughters first basket ball season. All they did was try to take the ball from each other. Whistle, jump ball, whistle jump ball....... boring. You see a lot of missed tackles because of ball punching attempts.

All is forgiven That was better explanation.

It's sports, Grog. They're all dirty. Basketball has flagrant fouls that could kill a normal person. How about what Pete Rose did to Ray Fosse -- during a friggin' pointless All-Star game.

In auto racing they ram their cars into each other. In bike racing they ram their elbows into each other. In soccer, they slid a guys legs out from under him.

Sure, it's bad, but then it's what people expect now.

I just wish football would get rid of "the wildcat." I hate that play.

AFC-911 01-28-2010 06:23 PM

Speaking of stuff football should get rid of, the breaking the plane for the touchdown. I hate it when they reach the ball over the pylon and call that a touchdown...What crap.

On topic, it sucks that I have neither Favre nor the Packers to root for. But I do hope that Indy demolishes the Saints.

m21sniper 01-28-2010 06:26 PM

I seriously expect that you will get your wish.

My gut tells me Indy +20.

Kinda what we already knew.

NFL: Crucial hit on Brett Favre during NFC Championship Game should've been flagged - ESPN

NFL:
Crucial hit on Favre should've been flagged

71T Targa 01-29-2010 07:22 AM

Very unusual for the NFL to come out and say a bad call was made or a call missed.

Evidently it's not unusual when that call involves Brett Farve...

In rugby we had to literally touch the ball down with obvious control. I'm so small that guys would just pick me up to prevent me from falling to the ground forcing me to pass or hand off!:mad:

His initial comments were clear as a bell.

Whats so true about this is though we loved brett when he was here we also overlooked his short comings including having his own locker room with private entrance that no one really outside of wisconsin knew or at least commented on.

All the local MN people are talking about about his retirement and that brett will make his anouncement shortly I wonder which team has got em on the hook now?

lukeh 01-29-2010 12:50 PM

Kurt Warner just retired. Doesn't he know this retirement stuff is a 5 year process where he needs to change his mind every few months, have his family email ESPN writers to let them know he just told Archie down at the barber shop that his arm still feels good and have his agents throw some feelers out there just in case. I mean you can't just tell your team that by the end of the week you'll let them know if you're going to retire and then actually tell them that week. Warner must be off his rocker.
