real reason farve want to return

[MyGodWearsAHoodie]

Yes he holds the records for:

Most Passes Attempted, Career
Most Passes Completed, Career
Most Consecutive Games Played, Career (other than if you count punters)
Most Yards Gained, Career
Most Seasons, 3,000 or More Yards Passing
Most Touchdown Passes, Career


and is greatest accomplishment:

Most Passes Had Intercepted, Career

but since announcing his retirement he learned he is a mere 14 fumbles away from tying Warren Moon's record for Most Fumbles, Career. With such a record still out there just waiting to broken how can one not come back for another season.

Hoodie... shouldn't your avatar say "FLUSHING away the season...", not "flashing"?

You might also get a better quality rendition of it if you actually resized it yourself. Browsers do a horrible job resizing pics.

I didn't make the picture.  I think the flashing is a reference to the half-time incidents.  I did ask the developer for a New Jersey Jets logo.  I don't know why he added the rest.  I wanted a straight up Jets logo with NJ instead of NY.

"Flashing" doesn't jive very well with the picture of the toilet, though. You can't have it both ways and have it be a pun on both...

12 fumbles in one season ? That even sounds like a lofty goal for Farve. But if anybody can do it , Brett can.

I find this as funny as anyone else, and I'm not a Farve fan. Still, I can understand why the guy wants to come back. What can you look forward to after retirement? Look at Marino. He's pretty much making TV appearances to fill the void of being a quarterback. That's a pretty big career change, and I've got to wonder if that could be enough for Farve, or any other NFL quarterback who has been a legend throughout his career.

I don't blame Farve for wanting to come back. I blame him for making a circus of everything. This could've been handled easily. Now, whether it was Farve or someone giving him advise, this situation has turned into something that won't benefit either side. It's a shame he had to do this, because it will more than likely tarnish his image (rightfully so, though). I'm sure Brett thought this was the only way he would be able to get back into a starting role. Still, this is one of those moments he has to look back on the decisions he's made, and smack himself on the head. It would have been easier for him to go the the Packers first than the media.

Apparently he's bored out of his mind.  He probably doesn't make a good TV personality.  I'm thinking he should try being a QB coach somewhere.

If I remember right didn't Dan turn down a job with Miami because he liked the extra time he has with his family. Dan doesn't appear to have a void in his life, I am not sure of it. Yes I imagine it is hard to walk away from something you have done for a very long time. But like you said Brett has made a fool of himself by changing his mind for the millionth time. Brett has been doing this for years, the team ask for a dead line on his decision and he would take his time and never respect the teams request, but yet some how the Packers pressured him this year to make an early decision this year. Farve is smiling right now because he has everybody talking about him, and ESPN loves it. If Brett wants to come out of retirement then let him rejoin his team, and this time instead of him being greedy maybe he can just be part of the team and do whats best for it.

As much as I hate Favre for all the flip flopping, I think he'd be a great TV personality. Anytime he gets interviewed, he is very well spoken (except for a few crying incidents), and seems to be able to express his thoughts (unlike the NFL's all time leading rusher).

[Guru-In-Vegas]

^ You think so?

It seems to me like he has a big 'ol pinch of chewing tobacco behind his lower lip in the way he speaks.

If you ask me I love Favre...he is a normal type guy playing in a league with a bunch or fart huffing pansies (T.O. anyone?).  I hate how the media always shoves everything down your freaking throat (if I heard one more Patriot story last year I think my head would have exploded) and I find it hilarious how everyone is so much in an uproar about all of this.  I think Favre gets a kick out F-ing with people...especially the media and that's freaking awesome in my book.  Plus the little message under my avatar is true...he said that at the ESPYS.  As for tainting his legacy...what about Montana?  All the people who don't have a clue about QB's (which is almost everyone) still say he's the greatest QB that ever lived and people forget that he retired playing for the lackluster KC Chiefs.
