    he's been lights out so far, but I still think the Vikes season ends on a bone-headed Favre INT. that's the way it always goes.

        I must say I found his seemingly indecisive pre-season "I'm retired...wait, no, I'm not" biz more than a bit tiresome...seemed like he was a few seasons past it, just plain scared to let go and retire, and was making an ass of himself.

        However, seeing some of those throws he made in the Vikings/Bears game...fuck!! There was one throw that actually made me say "holy shit!" aloud; just a case of being THAT fucking good.

        I guess success is the best way to silence detractors. If he leads the Vikings to a Superbowl and a win, well, he still was a bit of an ass leading up to the season, but said Superbowl scenario result would tend to quash all of those criticisms.

            votes, Williams got 14, Young got 7, Cedric Benson(notes) got 4, and Brett Favre got 4.

            Can someone explain to me exactly what Brett Favre(notes) "came back" from? He played last year. He played miserably over the last five games of the season and cost the Jets a playoff spot, but he played.

            Then he spent the offseason faking a retirement, and being an attention-whoring prima donna who needed an entire organization to bend over backward to accommodate his every whim ... but is that the sort of thing that makes a comeback story? Yeah, he also had some arm surgery, but offseason surgery isn't exactly a rarity in the NFL.

            It's an insult to the real comeback stories that make sports fun to follow. If you're just a jerk, and then you play well, that doesn't qualify as a comeback. It makes you a jerk who's good at sports.

            Let's use "Rocky III" as an example, because it's your classic sports comeback story. Rocky was destroyed by Clubber Lang, felt responsible for Mickey's death, lost all confidence in himself, and through hard work and inspiration from his friend Appollo, then came back to beat Lang and regain the title.

            By the standards of the four people who voted Brett Favre as Comeback Player of the Year, Rocky III would have been better if Rocky had just given the finger to a bus full of nuns, burned down an orphanage and then beat up Mr. T.

                  He got 1 mvp vote. Will he melt down in the playoffs ??? I say no unless they face the Pack in the championship game. The pressure would be huge to not screw that game up !!

                    Favre's career NFL stats relative to the next-closest QB ... Fascinating!

                    Get these career statistical hallmarks (and note just how far ahead of the competition Favre is from the No. 2 of each category!!!) ...

                      If you're gonna give those stats, you've gotta give this one too...

                      Most Passes Had Intercepted, Career

                      317 Brett Favre

                      277 George Blanda

                      268 John Hadl

                      That said, I hope Favray goes off today vs. the Cowgirls....

                              Good point, but I never said that Favre was a great quarterback ... I just thought the stats on Favre's own self-promotional Web site were amazing ... That's all ...

                              This is the "What the Fa[vr]e?" thread, afterall ... I didn't start this thread, but I'm guessing that the intention of this thread was to express amazement at the GREAT things Favre has done, not all of his amazing screwups, LOL! ...
