I was never a fan of Favre. He reminded me of Fran Tarkenton, always scrambling around to find an open guy. I get that quarterbacks sometimes have to scramble, but much of the time, it was as if he ran no plays and the playbook was reduced to "I'll scramble until one of you gets open".

The NFL is dead to me now, so who cares what this D-bag says?

He says that Colin left the NFL willingly, but is that the case? I thought he was let go and no one wanted to pick him up.

What Tillman did vs what Kapernick is doing is not even close to being the same. Tillman acted to defend the country, Kapernick is trying to tear down the country. Favre apparently took to many shots to the head cause his reasoning is very faulty.

Hey Brett, you’re supposed to donate your brain to the concussion study AFTER you die.

“Kapernick is absolutely no way comparable to Pat Tillman and only a stupid moron like Favre could even think that.”

What do you expect from Favre anyway. This is a guy who was texting photos of his junk to women. He isn’t every bright.

Favre was just involved in a financial mess. Potential criminality..It suddenly faded away. I already know what Terry Bradshaw will say. He’s on those awful pre-game shows. The NFL is dead, whether Fauci takes his jackboot off them or not.

Brett Favre was one of my favorite players in his day. But this is a stupid hot take. Kaepernick ‘gave up’ a career which was rapidly in decline an is still getting big endorsement deals still, getting paid for being a radical activist. Tillman was killed serving his country. Hardly the same thing, in fact it’s an insult to Tillman to even try to compare them.

Boooooooo, Brett Favre. First time I’ve ever booed you but you earned it.

Uh... no. Tillman is/was a hero. Kaepernick is a zero.

Night and day difference.

Speaking of which, Brett Favre e-mailed a picture of his package, unsolicited and unwanted, to a woman.

Brett Favre should be a registered sex offender.

I’m sure the cheeseheads would still think his $hit is ice cream.

Good research! What a sell-out loser. When the SHTF, people like Favre will sell us out. The Bible predicts this in advance.
