Rome Thinks Your Favre Fetish Is Epic Fail.

I know you Favreopians all love Jim Rome, but are probably burning your Starting Lineup figures in effigy right now, considering how he did your boy in the jungle this afternoon. And it wasn't like any of what would have been Favre's new teammates were taking up much for him, either. Like Jared Allen.

Pimp in the Box

Is That a Door I See Cracked Open?

*Sigh*

With this exchange, it's comically apparent this time is going to wind up no different than the last. Asked whether he would change his mind, Favre said: "Very unlikely. I really believe this is it. I truly, truly believe it's over. But if someone calls Nov. 1, who knows?"

We know, Brett. That's who. You're. Not. Fooling. Anyone.

It's Over! Again! Until it's Not! Again!

Oh, come on. Like you honestly believe THIS IS IT? With this guy? I'm not holding my breath. Not when the little boy heart still beats on his gunslinger sleeve and while he still draws legendary breath. Until then, enjoy.




OK, I aped this from Deadspin. Those guys are great.

And Here We Go Again!

Sources close to Favre say he's "conflicted." Where have we heard that before? 18,000 or so times? Please, Brett, do everyone a favor and end this galactic charade of media-seeking attention. We have ample evidence that this isn't about your shoulder or your conflict so much as it is about your interest in not practicing. We know: the fire still burns like a day-old volcano taco.

God help us

Jared Allen Is Getting Annoyed

Twice now, this guy has come out telling the Legendary One to crap or vacate the seat. Anyone else giddy at the prospect of Favre signing with the Vikings and watching them implode when they get off to a slow start?

The Golden Boy Does Not Appear To Be Down with the Gunslinger

You know, when the guy whose tarnished reputation has prevented his hallowed number from being retired by the Packers starts ripping on you, maybe it's time to start paying attention to that little thing called legacy lest you tarnish it. Oh, that's right, Brett'll worry about his legacy. So don't you bother.

Lemme guess the myopic response: "Who's Paul Hornung!?"

He Doesn't Hold Teams Hostage

Another one for you myopes who believe Favre is simply a gunslinging, leave-it-all-on-the-field, emotions-on-his-sleeve, unchoreographed, red-blooded workman like you liken yourselves to be.

Ooooooh, That's Gotta Hurt

This guy apparently is not under the magical influence of one Brett Lorenzo Favre. I mean, come on, a comparison to Britney Spears? Ouch.

Prima donna

Categorize Under: "No Sh*t, Sherlock"

Thanks for the newsflash, genius. Of course you're "running out of time to make a decision," given the fact that the Vikings' season starts September 13th. And, no, they won't move the date to give you more time.

Of Course He Will

Did we honestly think Brett Favre would make up his mind in time for the Vikings to make honest decisions about their season and their quarterback position? Ummmm ... no. Know why? Brett Favre is only interested in playing on Sundays. I know I know. He's a legend and legends don't need practice.

Well This Is Starting to Feel Like an Infection

It's being rumored that Tavaris Jackson will request a trade if Brett Favre signs with the Vikings. How many former teammates and potential future teammates does it take for Viking management to get it that this guy is a cancer waiting to sink their knorr pointed toward Miami?

Tavaris wants out?

Well We're Movin' on Up!

And if the rumor and speculation weren't enough, now comes word there's been a hefty down payment made on a condo in a Minneapolis suburb in the Legend's name.

As Far As I know, Brett Favre Is Still Retired

So says Uberagent and snazzy dresser, Bus Cook. But the rest of the non-lying world knows better.

And I'm Sure the Myopes Will Say: "Well, Who's Jerry Rice?!"

Seems like even Jerry Rice thinks Tavaris Jackson's a better option than the "Aged One." And, btw, Jerry Rice might very well be the best receiver of all-time, and even though he didn't know how to retire, at least he wasn't a mental midget and could make up his mind in a matter of days that he wanted to play again, not years.

Brett Favre Just Plays for Love of the Game, Right?

Hmmmm ... why is it that the Brett Favre he "wants" us to see in these interviews and such is not the real Brett Favre?

It's all about the money
