Am I the only who doesn't care about him and thinks he's completely overrated?

If you think you're getting bombarded nationally, we're getting completey carpet bombed locally. I'm really tired of hearing about it.

Alot... Rofl.

This kind of stuff is the reason why the only thing football related I watch is the drafts and the games... Everything else is worthless, IMO.

I dont follow football that much but I saw his interviews on Greta Van Sustrens show. It seems like he should have stayed retired once he made that decision. Bitching about your former team and employer where you had such a legacy seemed stupid to me

I got tired of the 24x7 coverage a long time ago.

My son and I were watching a baseball game on ESPN this past Sunday night and they interrupted the game so we see every exciting minute of his plan landing. I was tired of it all before then, but it was at that point that I began to hate him.

Of course, it's not all his fault. The media shares half the blame too. Where did they get this ridiculous idea that I give a rat's patootie and need them to shove Brett Favre down my throat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in order to make it through my day?!?!?!

Enough already.

Up here in Canada, we get daily updates on the Brett Favre story, and around just as many (if not more) about Mats Sundin. I like both athletes a lot but am sick of their indecisiveness.

Speakin of Jive, I just read the Bores have surfaced as a possible trading partner again. I can imagine all the Bores fans heads would explode if they saw #4 behind their center. They'd know they had a better QB than they have ever had, but then they'd have to admit he was a great QB. Most of them probably couldn't handle it.

For how much Favre killed us in his prime, I can totally see him killing us again if he donned the Navy and Orange in latter years.

But, I don't see it happening. The Bears do not have $12.5 mil in cap space. Favre would have to restructure his contract and be willing to pay for significantly less if a trade like that were to happen. Plus, I can't imagine rooting for Favre. Can you?

Now there are websites saying a trade to the Bucs is a done deal. It would be kinda nice to see Favre roast Gard's hopes.

Well, at least if we end up with Aaron Rogers as our only starting caliber QB, we can count on Grossman/Orton making him look good.

The only football player I know are the ones that play at my school, but I'm a big fan of Brett's last name.

I think if the Packers end up trading Favre to the Viqueens, Thomspson will have signed his ticket out of town in the next year or two. That's a slap in the face to every Packer fan alive. Right now, best case is trading to the Bucs I think, although I'd rather see it be an AFC team.
