The hate on the treatment of Favre is hilarious. You guys.. Favre getting this 'special' treatment has been pretty much the same since his Super Bowl/MVP years with your team.

Now the shoe's on the other foot, you see.

As far as how many times I've seen a ref help up a player.. I can honestly say about a handful of times (not including last night, because I missed all but maybe a quarter, due to work).

A lot of Packer fans, if not most of them, have been sick of the Favre treatment for years. Not many complained publicly about it, though. When it's your own guy, usually you are just quietly embarrassed.

At least he deserved most of the praise during the second half on Monday night. It gets really sickening when he's having a bad game and they keep praising him anyway.

His first quarter averages weren't all that bad..

By my count (source link ), Favre went 5 of 9 (55% completion) for 36 yards (4 yards per attempt) and one fumble (BTW, that fumble led to 3 points.. Not 7).

Those aren't great stats.. But 4 yards per attempt is all you really can ask for. What killed the BRETT FAVREs was the run blocking. I love the play calling (3 rushes in a row multiple times), but the execution needs to get better.

I muted the games when Favre was on the Packers too. There are only so many slurping noises I can listen to before I want to vomit. The shoe isn't on the other foot, Formo -- not for all of us. For some of us, we're relieved you get to deal with it. I haven't watched a full Vikings game all year (not even our two), and it has been wonderful.

Speaking of missed penalties........in the Packer/Steelers game. One of the steelers slamed one of our LB'ers in the back, right where the play was, and there was no flag. It was SO obvious. I THINK it was Barnett that was hit from the back. And the play was pretty much over, Barnett had stopped, and this guy came in from behind and just slammed him.
I was yelling at the TV. I couldn't see HOW they missed that.

Goodell loves the Stillers... They've gotten away with MURDER this year (not just against the Pack/Vikes, either). Just league favoritism.

Sucks to be you.. lol

I don't mind the knob-slobbering. I'd rather hear Jaws/Chuckie praising Favre over Buck gracing FOX viewers with his high and mighty play-by-play every day of the week.

You guys don't like it because it confirms what most people don't like to admit. Brett Favre is bigger than the Jets. He's bigger than the Vikings and he's bigger than the Packers. He is always the biggest story in the game he is playing. Good or bad, the newspapaers, the talk shows, the pre game, the off season. It all revolves around "is he coming back" or "what can he do for this team or that team" or "what do former players think about him".

Reggie White, Jerry Rice. Probably 2 of the 5 or 10 best players of all time. When they retired, barely a blip on the radar when they went to other teams late in their career or retired. Face it, He IS bigger than the game.
