That hurts just to look at

Favre’s last pass for the Falcons was an INT.
Favre’s last pass for the Packers was an INT.
Favre’s last pass for the Jets was an INT.

No, bruises are not why Favre throws interceptions. Bad judgment is why Favre throws interceptions.

For all the millions this guy makes, I’d take a bum ankle.
Who says this is valid info anyway? No sympathy from me if it is real.

>>That hurts just to look at <<

When the NFL makes it clear to the refs who they want to win, that is what you get. The refaints realized the refs were not calling roughing the passer calls and were cheap shotting the entire 4th quarter and into OT.

The fix is in. If the Colts don’t get and stay at least 14 points ahead, the refs will hand the SB to the refaints, just like they did the NFC championship.

Brett Favre= Great QB on the field, when he’s not making horrendously stupid throws . Huge drama queen off the field.

Nasty... Favre’s a tough guy. Should have handed off the last play. Hope they check him for possible DVT blood clot formations.

How do we know this is really Brett Favre’s leg and hammy?

At the end of that game I am quite sure, that Farve had no idea which city he currently was in.

I will never forget that interception, I made the best parlay in my life on the Vikings to win and the combined score to be over 56 points! What an idiot! That was classic boneheaded Brett Favre alright. Not only could he have toughened out a run in one of the most important plays in his career, there was a man wide open on the right side of the field!

I think there is a more provocative explanation for Favre’s mistake. It isn’t chalked up to injury or stupidity, but selfishness and always trying to be the center of attention by making the huge play. Unfortunately for Favre, that cowboy mentality has harmed his teammates as much as anyone. We have seen it for years on the field, and we have seen in the last two years when he had no regard for making organizations wait for a decision on his return while you know he savored the hype from the media.

Favre is worse than an idiot, he is a selfish idiot.

He doesn’t deserve to be put in the ranks of coolheaded QBs like Montana, Aikman, Manning and Brady.

I didn’t care who won that game, but the final minutes were horrible. Didn’t the Vikings get a five yard penalty that put them out of FG range? Then Favre makes his poor decision on third down and tosses the INT.

But the worst thing of all is the stupid NFL overtime rules. There is no way a game should end after only one team had a possession. Each team should have the same number of possessions until one team wins. Period.

But, if anyone loves those NFL rules so much, advocate it for baseball. If the visiting team scores in the top of the tenth, game over. First team to score in extra innings wins. In basketball, the first team to score in OT wins.

I’m a Favre fan. He had a great career, I hope he decides to play again next year. After that, the Hall of Fame in nearby Canton, Ohio!

Gonna be fun watching him calling games too. Favre and Bradshaw together? That’ll be a hoot.

How you beat Brett Farve is no secret. Hit him. Hit him early. Hit him often. Put him on his behind every time he drops back and passes. The man is 40. Hit him often enough and by the 4th quarter he’s rushing his throws and his timing is off as a result. Then he beats himself.

Don Meredith must be laughing somewhere out in Santa Fe; the modern qb is much too protected by the refs.

Farve is a great and entertaining QB. He threw a stupid/bad pass. It happens.

Excuse. Dwight Freeny played with a torn ankle ligament. Other QBs have played with broken bones.

The Saints game plan was perfect- put Favre on his back as much as possible.

where were these taken? it looks like the bottom one is a kitchen.

just odd. and why not show Brett’s face in the picture.

I’m not saying he didn’t get beat up in the game, but this is just weird and more excuse-making by the master of “it’s all about me, but it’s not my fault.”

His injury made him throw it?
