Farve? The guy’s an old man, cut him a break! I respect his playing ability at this ripe old age. Being in a big sports town that is plenty vocal of the local players there isn’t a lot of time spent listening to Farve whine or watching his primadonna act.

  The Jets coach is a big an asshole as his father. And Sanchez is not ready for prime time. Spin it how you like, but the reason the Jets are a run team is because they have to be. Not that Sanchez won't become great. Right now he's about the level of a mediore back up in the NFC. Manning/Colts will make for a better match up against either NFC team.

And Indy, relax, your guys are gonna roll over the Jets.

Jan 20, 2010 6:18 pm

Shocker.  The old guy loves Favre.

Ice - you’re my friend - but Sanchez a Palmer wannabe? What are you smokin, can i have some? If i was Palmer, I’d wanna be Mark all day long.

  Bond Guy - Rex may be a pig, but he's MY pig and i love him. I love having a 400 pound coach with a 500 pound heart and pizza stains on every shirt he wears. He's da man   Governor Patterson of NY got on sportsradio this morning and predicted Jets 30 Indy 0  he's got my freakin vote.   The stars are lined up. There are too many things that are too far fetched that had to happen to get us to this point. And they all happened. We are a team of destiny. Just like 1969, when we beat.......da Colts!! ok, different colts, so what!   Indyone - you're my friend too, but your guys are toast. OK,OK, I'm having a pre game party and i'm drunk. Whatever happens on Sunday, just leave me the fk alone. I'm having fun with this and i deserve it. 40 years since the last Superbowl, and 26 years as a season tix holder. I deserve this. I need this. If they win it all this year, then go another 40 years before they do it again, I'll be 99 years old. Or NOT!. So leave me the f*** alone, I;m having fun

As a MN boy, I love this. It is hilarious to read the posts from Aug 09 on how much Farve will suck. I thought he might, too, who knew? But I was SO HAPPY in Aug cuz the Purple had been SO BORING for so long- at least it was not gonna be boring—and it has been AWESOME!!! What a story…286 games in a row is beyond incredible

  The Vikes sold their souls to the devil.  If you thought the last 30 years were bad, get ready for the next 30 years.

Sage Rosenfels was going to be the guy(he was a BACK-UP at the texans).. I think this move stopped the bleeding at the qb position and gave the Vikes time to find out if Tavaris can learn anything from Brett or if he is going to continue to be a game manager. And if he is they can address that in the draft this year or next or sign someone else..   In comparison look what the bears gave up for their guy, granted much, younger but still 1st and 2nd in 2009, and a first in 2010 and Kyle Orton(don't know much about him, seems to  be a career back quality)...and oh yeah ($$$)..   So in comparison the Vikes got a talented proven quarterback who has played in the same conference and division forever for $$(essentially a contract worker) and now have time to figure out their future(pick up Jason Campbell on the cheap) or draft someone..   Where as the bears are stuck with a young quality qb, but mortgaged the house to pay for the pool, and now have no WRs to throw to and also lost top draft picks..   Draft picks are always worth more than money.(ask Jimmy Johnson and Bill Belichek)

If the Eagles ever signed Eli Manning I would think we deserve 30 years in purgatory. That is where my opinion comes from. Karma plays a huge part in stuff like this.

Squash -Have you seen the Bears QB’s over the years ? Have you seen how bad Jerry Angelo is at drafting 1st Rd picks ? Have you seen that the Bears had absolutely nothing to build around before getting Cutler ? Angelo screws up every number one pick. EVERY SINGLE ONE. NOT HALF, ALL. Trading those picks for a proven commodity was a good move and still is. The Vikings needed one piece so Favre was a good and obvious move. Comparing the Vikings situation to the Bears is ridiculous. It shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same conversation.

  Not a single person on earth thought Favre had this kind of year left in him. Not even Childress. He made a move out of desperation and it paid off.

Indy, i tip my hat to Peyton.

We'll be back.

"The Jets coach is a big an asshole as his father. "

  The classiest thing that Buddy Ryan ever did was to say that he got rid of Chris Carter because all that he ever did was catch touchdowns.   I'll always have some degree of respect for him for using this line and taking the heat instead of telling the truth.

As hard as I’ve been on Favre, I’m starting to feel sorry for him.  The Saints are pounding the living sh*t out of him.  I’ll give him credit for answering the bell and coming back on the field (but he’s still a puss about training camp).

There it was. A Favre Special. If he runs 5 yards and slides the Vikings are in the Super Bowl, but instead he fires a pass across the middle for a pick. GAME OVER.

Now his offseason bullsh*t will begin..........
Jan 25, 2010 3:40 am

Yep, replay of his last game with the Packers–blows the NFC Championship with an interception and team loses in OT.  The whole team’s fumble-itis didn’t help matters.

Jan 25, 2010 3:54 am

Just throw it away…

time for the old guy to retire.
