i have no problem w/ him playing. but be a professional and stop being a diva, crybaby, selfish, high maintenence drama queen.....aka clinton portis. if he wanted to REALLY play then go to training camp, mini camp and ota practices. i blame the vikings more than i blame farve. this is going to blow up in their face when he throws 4 picks and then cries about making the wrong decision.

Schefter reporting it's a done deal pending passing a physical. 2 years $10-$12M.

What a circus act he's become.

CRedskinsRule · 08-18-2009, 11:45 AM

so ya gotta ask, was he waiting for Vick to sign so he wouldn't get upstaged?

Considering Favre's ego rivals that of Matty I'd say you're on to something.

Maybe. Maybe he just didn't want to deal with training camp.

Exactly. Not only was he dishonest and deceitful about his intentions, he was a total puss about it too- skipping out on camp and a chance to get to know his new teammates knowing damn well he was gonna sign anyway.

Now he enters his time in Minnesota with an air of superiority. The guys in that locker room are friends with Sage and Tavaris, and have been working their butts off side by side with them in training camp. Now comes this old diva, who with no preparation or work whatsoever will unseat the other two QBs and simply fall into the starting lineup. Shitty for chemistry IMO.

I can't stand Favre anymore. It's a shame. I used to love the guy. I'm not gonna lie, I hope he falls falt on his face with this comeback attempt. He needs to go away.

I agree completely. Heck, he doesn't have to befriend his teammates or prep with new receivers, because he is the invincible Favre! (or so he thinks)

On the other hand, if they all gel, does that imply chemistry is overblown as a reason for success/failure of qb-wr tandems?

If he gives them abetter chance at winning the other players will not give a dang who is playing QB. I'd say give Brett a few weeks an it will be obvious who is the better of the three.
