I am so tired of the Brett Favre BS. Just retire finally.

Love how he plays but a big fat DITTO on that.

I really can not stand when sports figures refuse to leave the game.

Agreed on all the parts. I am a Lion's fan by default. But I will always be a Broncos fan

It is a little tiring, but the media makes it a much bigger deal than it really is. The man has earned the right to change his mind and there will be a team waiting if he does. Let the man play, he is better than atleast 4 or 5 starting QB's in the league right now, including, but not limited to: Vikings, Packers, Jets, Raiders and Lions (pending Stafford). :-)

I don't like how he hijacks a team every year making them wait and not allowing them to get their team in order. It is right up there with players who refuse to play until a team restructures their contract.

The Lion's I think aren't going to start him just yet they will let Culpepper play a couple games until he gets "hurt" then put stafford in
[Reply]

At this point he is not better then Aaron Rodgers. Compare their stats from last season. They Packers made the right decision on letting Favre go. Rodgers is the future and the better player now. Packers D is what needs fixing.

Patriots should be back in the hunt for the Lombardi trophy this year. I wish they had picked up some players that might be with the team more than 1 or 2 years (really how many years does Shawn Springs have left in him?). Also, they really needed to improve the pass rush by getting Jason Taylor or Julius Peppers and that didn't happen. Despite those short comings they're still one of the best teams in the NFL if not the best.

:-) The media is to blame for things like this. I imagine it would be very hard to leave the game, especially knowing a pretty darn good team would like to pay you millions to give you another shot!

Go Vikings :-)

Just thought I'd let you know:


Former QB Kosar files for bankruptcy, owes Browns $1.5M
June 19, 2009
CBSSports.com wire reports



MIAMI -- Former NFL and Miami Hurricanes star quarterback Bernie Kosar has filed for bankruptcy protection in Miami.

Kosar's Chapter 11 filing Friday lists assets between $1 million and $10 million and liabilities of between $10 million and $50 million.

Kosar owes almost $1.5 million in "unsecured debt" to the Cleveland Browns, who he played for from 1985 to 1993. Kosar also owes his ex-wife Babette $3 million and $725,000 (from a personal loan) to the owner of the Cleveland Gladiators of the Arena Football League. He owes a bank more than $9 million for bad real estate deals.

The 45-year-old Kosar got divorced in 2007 and last year saw his steakhouse go out of business.

Kosar, who also played for Dallas and Miami, retired from the NFL in 1996.

This doesn't surprise me. Most professional athletes have no clue how to control their money. Who knows how much of that money was blown to booze and pain killers.
