Re: Dave Myers: Favre’s legacy belongs to him- AMEN!
tandread84: vicodin slinger would mean he's selling it.. Vicodin injector is more appropriate...
Wrong, he was slinging it down the old hatch... Remember he was picking it out of his puke?
Quint: Anti-shark cage. You go inside the cage? [Hooper nods] Quint: Cage goes in the water, you go in the water. Shark's in the water. Our shark. [sings] Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain. For we've received orders for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore shall we see you again.

I think "crawdad slinger" would be a more appropriate term.... Or vicoden slinger...
Funny in a way I'd have to admit. At same time its sort of crude. Ptisme please offer Brett a sincere apolgy ok my friend?
You know I deleted that last line then retyped it... I apologise:)

A legacy is what winds up being handed down--for good or bad.
Resentment isn't the emotion I feel, but the severing of the relationship--and the messy break-up--enables a person to see things more objectively.
It must a bit like having a long-term girl friend end a relatioship by moving across the country. Your memories of how she bought you neat gifts for your birthday and her sense of humor is tempered by the revelation that she was getting it on with the neighbor guy.
You resent that Favre is going to play for the Vikings, come on admit it, there is no crime in that. Objectively please? I know I'm not being objective, as I know you are not being objective. Becaue if it's not resentment, it's downright hatred and that's not healthy.
Robert, my feelings for BLF--a mixture of disgust and betrayal--may color my view of the man, but the opinions that I have of his career have been largely unchanged since March, 2008. While I view him as a top five QB, he has too many flaws to be GOAT. Now part of the reason I harp on that is that a few folks on this board have so mythologized and romanticized his career--and you hover dangerously close to that territory, Robert--that they are unable to see him warts and all. BLF didn't walk on water. He didn't rescue the Packers from the morass of the 70's and 80's all by his lonesome. He made some big mistakes on the biggest stages. He came to GB with a gunslinger mentality that aged Holmy when he was coach here. Unfortunatley, if you have a discouraging word to say about the man and imply that he may have brought some of those post-season failure on himself, you get labled a heretic by the practictioners of the Holy Church of BLF.
You tend to minimize his playoff screw-ups--and that's part of his legacy, along with the brief shining playoff run in '96. People tend to make excuses for him and rationalize the failings. Bottom line, Robert, if I had all of the great QBs in their prime available to me and I had one week to get ready to lead a team into the greatest game of my life, I would take Montana, Starr, Unitas, and even Otto Graham or Tom Brady over BLF, and that's why he can't be GOAT to me.
I know I have said this many times before, but cheesecityfool you are an angry old man who truly gets pleasure from kickin a man when he is down. You throw in a few select reasonable statements here and there to try to camouflage your true feelings and intentions. However, truth be told you love cheap shots. You love tearing down good thinsg and good people who are loved by many. I truly feel bad for you. It must be a very loney exsitance to turn out such a bitter person.
Ace I'm much more reasonable and less driven by my emotions than you are. I can easily list 20 or more moments of joy that watching BLF gave me, but I doubt that you could list ten mind-numbingly stupid game-killers that he pulled.
Is BLF "down" now? I thought he was going to ride off into the sunset with the Queens and a Lombardi trophy tucked under his arm?
Face it, Ace. You worship the ground he walks on. He can do wrong for you, ever. When it comes to BLF, you'll always lead with your heart and not your head.
You are so wrong my friend. I am only here to correct the lies and mistruth's you spread. If you were not a bitter old man, you would just stop posting garbage every chance to you get. I perosonally have appealed to you to give it a rest. You instead increased the amount of hate you are throwing around.
Yes Brett is down. He got thrown to the curb by the team he loved. Since he cannot right himself with the Packers he wants to try to do so somewhere else. You the angry man that you are would deny him that too if it was up to you.
Ace, they guy retired, and I take him at his word that he wasn't forced out. Furthermore, I'm sure that the Bus Cook propaganda machine wouldn't have permitted him to be forced out. You can't do the things he did--let the Packers make personnel moves to compensate, not show up to OTAs, not work with a personal trainer, not preprare and study film, trash the organization in public--and expected to be welcomed back.
He got to play last year and if someone is fool enough to hire him, he can play this year, too. It's just that he shouldn't pretend that he doesn't want it stick it to Packers for the last two years by wanting to play for the Queens.
I'm not spreading hate, I'm just here to counteract the worship of him on this site.
As my Grand-daddy once said, "Don't get into a spray fight with a skunk." Except he didn't exactly use the word "spray."

I heard on the news just now that Brett Favre said he wanted to get as far away from professional football as possible.... So he wants to play for the Vikings:)
I have to use this at my ballgames tomorrow night. Excellent, deserving of a ROTFLMFAO!

You are a hate monger pure and simple. Camoflauge it as best as you can, but it is what it is.

ptisme: tandread84: vicodin slinger would mean he's selling it.. Vicodin injector is more appropriate...
Wrong, he was slinging it down the old hatch... Remember he was picking it out of his puke?
this, if true, proves my point of it being something much stronger than vicodin... puking in general from vicodin isn't happening often. And even so, the pills, if anything left in the vomit would not hold any potency at all. now morphine, oxycontin, and other strong medicine just might.

Flounder was a legacy. Look what that got him.

You may be right... Not my cup of tea...Though most of my patients have chronic pain and many are hooked on vicoden... Not sure we'll ever know though....

Re: Dave Myers: Favre’s legacy belongs to him- AMEN!
BLF wanted OUT of Green Bay and IN to Minneapolis after the 2007 season. But after he "retired" TT wouldn't give him his release. BLF had to take a year long detour in NY before he could get what TT wouldn't give him = his unconditional release and out of his present contract. Now he can go to the Promised Land and wear Barney purple. All BLF has to do is get his arm healed so he can reunite with Bevell and get the royal treatment again like he did when Shermy ran things at 1265.
