Guest TerraTor Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I am saying this tonight as I was predicting with friends in the offseason. Brett Favre will quit during the season. They will pull some injury BS or whatever, but he's done and goes out tarnishing a stellar career. ____________________Where it all started _______________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I am saying this tonight as I was predicting with friends in the offseason. Brett Favre will quit during the season. They will pull some injury BS or whatever, but he's done and goes out tarnishing a stellar career. I hope you're right, but I don't know if his career is as stellar as Sportscenter fellatio would have everyone believe. Some lowlights: -Most INTs in history -Most Fumbles in history -Gave away the sack record to his friend by laying down on the ground -Held the city of Green Bay hostage for multiple years while he toyed with playing another season -Essentially did the same thing to the Jets -Did the same thing, again, to the Vikings -Purposely orchestrated his departure from GB, and a one year stint in NY, just to get back at his team while playing with Minnesota -Admitted abuser of pain pills -Flip-flopped after actual retirement and a tear-filled interview at Soldier Field -Possibly contributed to the early retirement of Barry Sanders, who had to share an MVP with Favre despite running for 2000+ yards -Has thrown more stupid INTs and choke-jobs than any QB who has played in the NFL -Ostensibly cheated on his wife I've thought for many years that Favre is a fake nice guy, one who exudes everything you expect in public, but is actually different from his "aw shucks" persona. Besides, the Jenn Sterger incidents aren't the first like this in Favre's career; it's been well known for some time that he and Chris Berman have swapped fluids.

defiantgiant Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I am saying this tonight as I was predicting with friends in the offseason. Brett Favre will quit during the season. They will pull some injury BS or whatever, but he's done and goes out tarnishing a stellar career. It sure seems like he will. I was telling my brother (who's a big Packers fan and hates Favre) this before the season - Favre doesn't have to implode for the Vikings to be in deep trouble. He just has to have a normal Brett Favre season. Statistically, 2009 was a ridiculous outlier when you look at his whole body of work - it wouldn't matter if he were 31 rather than 41, the odds aren't good that he repeats that performance for a second straight year. There's just no way he's throwing 4000+ yards, 30+ TDs and single-digit interceptions twice in a row. And if he regresses toward the mean and has an average-for-Favre season (which looks like it's happening already) that team is a LOT worse than they were last year. Through four games, he's on pace for a very Favre-like 3400 yards, 20 TDs, and 28 picks. In other words, a season like the one he had with Green Bay in 2005, or with the Jets in 2008. In OTHER other words, a season where the Vikings get 13 fewer scores and 21 more turnovers from their quarterback position. And I think TerraTor's right: if Favre legitimately struggles this season, I think he quits on his team. Especially if he knows that the tendinitis in his throwing arm is going to keep hampering his effectiveness. I mean, it took the promise of a new team, playing under his old coach in his old offense, AND a shot at revenge on the Packers to bring him back after 2008. And then he nearly retired again, after the best season of his career and a playoff run. Minnesota already went out and got him the wide receiver he's always wanted to play with - what more can they offer him to keep him in the game if the Vikings are 3-5 or 2-6 at the halfway point? If it starts to look like they're a long shot for the playoffs, I think Favre shuts it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackerDog Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Per sources I've spoken to personally in the Green Bay area, this is absolutely nothing new for Favre. He's been a well-known womanizer up there since his career started. Remember he was best buds with Chewy when that little hot tub incident happened and Chewbacca was accused of rape. Not a laughing matter. It was pure dumb luck that Bert Favor wasn't there that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
