Am I the ONLY one sick and tired of Brett Farve?

No you are not the only one.....he'd look great in a Minnesota Vikings uniform though....

He is rising quickly towards douche status.

I'm going to ASSUME you are referring to Brett Favre?

Mars23 said:

The real douches are the fans/media types who think he walks on water. Favre uses this to his advantage.

Favre was great when he let his play speak for him. This circus, as Uptown rightly points out, is hurting his legacy.

The guy won 1 Superbowl.....one.
I don't get it.

Graycap23 said:

Yeah, but he's a great player, first ballot HOFamer. Hey, Marino never won the SB, but he's one of the greatest QBs ever. I'm just tired of all the Favre golden-boy hero-worship.

uPtoWnNY said:

That's what I'm talking about. I can't listen 2 a game when he is playing. I turn the TV down.

Graycap23 said:

Who ?

Mach said:

I'll be glad when I can say that.

Graycap23 said:

that's more than most quarterbacks!

and:

* Most AP NFL MVP awards: 3 (1995, 1996, 1997)[66]
* Most consecutive starts by a quarterback (NFL): 253[4] (275 including playoffs)
* Most wins by a starting quarterback (NFL) regular season career: 160[4] (Regular season record: 160-93)
* Most career passing touchdowns: 442[67][68]
* Most career passing yards: 61,655[67]
* Most career pass completions: 5,377[69][4]
* Most career pass attempts: 8,758[4][3][70]
* Most career interceptions thrown: 288[67][71] Well, Reggie Jackson led in strikeouts!
* Most career games with at least three touchdowns: 63[46]

But I agree, listening to John Madden rave about him gets old

NDRU said:

He is/was great player but they go WAY overbaord when this guy plays. He won a Superbowl 11 years ago.

Graycap23 said:

True, but he's still playing great. If he sucked now I might agree more with you

NDRU said:

Guy is good, I mainly dislike him 4 KILLING the Bears 4 the last upteen years.

Graycap23 said:

I can understand that!

Graycap23 said:

I'd like to thank Favre for that INT in the NFC Championship game!


GO GIANTS!!!!!

Graycap23 said:

I get it. I fully understand what the 90's Packers teams would have been without him. You are right about the fans/media though. Specifically, the media. Those motherfuckers make you sick and damned tired of Favre.

This guy is driving me and his Ex-teammates 2 drink.

Do you live in Chi, Gray?

i live in wisconsin, this is the lead story on the news EVERYDAY!

bad enough when football is in season, but i look forward to not hearing about this dude on the off season. the way they talk about him, you'd think he resurrects the dead or something.

if he goes to the Vikings there will be a whole bunch of suicidal Packer fans. Which, really isn't a bad thing.

magnificentsynthesizer said:

I hope at least one Packer fan - my boyfriend - doesn't go suicidal over it. He loves the Packers, can't stand the Vikings. Even he wishes Favre would just retire already.

magnificentsynthesizer said:

I live in Atlanta but I'm well aware of the Chicago sports scene. I really wish this guy would GO away.

This just in.
ESPN just reported that brett farve farted at 8:00 am
this morning.

Yes i've been sick of this dude 5 years ago. I just don't get the lovefest
with the guy. And to think that there are a few analysts who suggest that
this guy is the greatest qb to ever play the game. I don't even put him
in the top ten based on the number of int's he throws. I don't even think this dude was better than troy aikman and i dislike the cowboys. I know i get tired of
turning on espn and every 5 seconds something about brett favre flashes
across the screen. One analyst whom i give credit for ripping favre is
stephen a. smith. He has been the only analyst with the guts to not give
him a pass and call him out with all his whining and selfishness about wanting to come
back and play. He made his bed so he should lie in it.

NDRU said:

That's the part that is often overlooked by the media. If some other qb's
threw that many interceptions, they wouldn't even be considered a hall of
famer or the best qb in the game. Favre do us all a favor and call it a day.
The nfl will survive without you and so will the packers.

Graycap23 said:

im glad you are so sick of him that you have dedicated another thread to being sick of him

horatio said:

Lol.....this is the same thread.

Nope. He's a crybaby. I wish he would stay gone. I've lost almost all my respect for him.
