Favre goes to the place he least wanted. Nice way to end a career - with a crappy team. Should of taken the 20 mill to relax.But I guess Allen pulled a Friedman and lowballed the packers. Now the bucs have a pissed off Garcia as the QB, nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him behind that OL will be insane.Way better situation than the Bucs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a couple of texts the second they started reporting it. Favre was one of my favorite players for a long time and I'm a diehard Jets fan (what can I say...I like Green when it comes to football) but I just don't know how I feel about this...that alone makes me weary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB Bulls Posted August 7, 2008 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 883 Reputation: 0 Days Won: 0 Joined: 01/17/2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Unbelievable how the papers keep getting all these trades wrong. That's the 2nd time in a week they said a big time player was coming to one of our teams and it didn't happen. I guess they don't check facts anymore before they print them. WTF? Why even bother looking at the papers or their sites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted August 7, 2008 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 3,307 Reputation: 12 Days Won: 1 Joined: 01/26/2002 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Because the papers are trying to "scoop" each other. That's when small-time reporters like Ira Kaufman end up out on the ledge, swearing to anyone who will listen that Favre will end up in Tampa. Then the deal doesn't happen and he looks like a total idiot.Personally I think the Packers tried to stick it to Favre in the end. It sounds like they took less from the Jets than what the Bucs offered, just so they wouldn't have to deal with him playing for another NFC team. And also the Jets are not as good as the Bucs, offseason improvements be damned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad wasnt gonna cut it after all the injuries. Clemens seemed like a career backup. We got Favre!If we dont make the playoffs we only give a 3rd rd pick. Platoffs 2nd and SB 1st. If Steve Young likes it, I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
