KDubK414 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Meanwhile, in Green Bay tonight Aaron Rodgers makes his first start as QB with GB. Hopefully next week, I will be getting my Favre Jets jersey, as he is my favorite NFLer of all time. I'm still a Packer Backer, but will be a Favre fan till I die as well.

ShinyHubCaps Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Brett Favre doesn't "fire" footballs when he throws them. Footballs are so afraid to be held by him that they fire themselves out of his hand at the first possible instant.Seriously...that's what this whole debacle is going to turn into...a whole 'nother Chuck Norris type thing.Incredulous Brett Favre jokes have been around a long time before his retirement fiasco.

Sport Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Just incase anyone forgot to get their copy, Madden 09 was released overnight.Here's a shot of EA's new downloadable cover featuring an updated "Jet Favre".Now, does this mean that soon EA will release the game into stores with the Jets cover and that soon the cover with Favre as a packer will become a collectors item?

Gothamite Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Don't know - do video games have second printings? At what point have they exhaused current supply and make more? Because they certainly aren't going to pull the thing from shelves. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they certainly aren't going to pull the thing from shelves.Normally no. Video games have initial printings and that's it, unless the game is updated tremendously (think a collector's edition DVD). Besides, EA already said it wasn't changing the cover and was offering the new sleeve insert as a courtesy for fans. Plainsman Parking Lot.

baseballking99 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Brett looked pretty good today. I'm happy about that. He's been practicing pretty well too. I've been going to the training camp everyday to watch and its clear that he is better skilled than the other three QB's. I don't see why everyone is anticipating a bad season.

Cujo Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 I hate to bump this (okay, not really ), but just as last year, daily Brett Favre news is beginning to pick up again now that the season's over.Jets running back Thomas Jones told a local radio station, "If somebody is not playing well, they need to come out of the game. You're jeopardizing the whole team because you're having a bad day. To me, that's not fair to everybody else. You're not the only one on the team. So when you get to the wire and somebody is just giving the game up, I mean, it's just not fair."Then to pile on, a veteran Jets player (quoted anonymously) described Favre as a "distant" teammate who, when at the Jets' practice facility, spent his down time away from teammates in an office specially designated for him. "There was a lot of resentment in the room about him. He never socialized with us, never went to dinner with anyone". So to recap: Now that the season's over and Mangini was the fall guy for the Jets' December collapse, everyone is throwing Favre under the bus -- thus letting him know he is pretty much unwelcome in New York for the 2009 season.
