I know how you feel, but you think Favre being in New York will lessen the coverage?
Favre Traded to N.Y. Jets
Finally the Soap Opera Ends. Maybe the Media can Finally Shut Up about him now? Please Give us a break from the coverage.

Yeah I know Favre going to the media capital of the world will be a hot story. But Come on. How many more years does the guy have left? This Season and maybe another one tops? I know this won't last too long. I don't think that he can help the Jets unless they can get to the Super Bowl This Year. Tom Brady and New England will have a little something to say about that in the AFC East.ladannen said:I know how you feel, but you think Favre being in New York will lessen the coverage?
Favre or no Favre,the JETS will always be the JETS !

Put a good team around Favre and he won't fail you. Put Favre on a mediocre team and you'll have a mediocre team. Sad to see a legend go out like this. Kinda reminds me of the Say-Hey kid playing for .... um.... the Mets?
As a long time (suffering) Jets season ticket holder, this makes absolutely no sense.
On the other hand, Pennington was no Pro Bowler and Clemens was nothing to write home about. After spending $100mm on Free Agents in the off season, why not?
Maybe they can almost be competitive.

Makes no sense? Pennington can't throw the ball thru a piece of paper and Clemmons ain't there yet. Makes perfect sense to me, and Green Bay will get back what Favre gives the Jets. I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out in both Green Bay and with the Jets!
I'm afraid it can only turn out bad in Green Bay. I envision a fan revolt at the first sign of trouble.bigwad said:Makes no sense?

At least Favre ain't back there hounding Rodgers. I can't imagine the pressure Rogers had in that first scrimmage. I hope that was a fluke due to that pressure and we Packer fans will be glad to see Favre gone in the very near future. Maybe Rodgers won't throw games away by trying to force things like Favre did. I'm excited to see how the Pack does, they have a very good team around Rodgers, and I hope it WORKS!!!!
I figured he would be traded but I really did not see to the Jets. I thought for sure he would end up being a Buc.
Now my question is what is Madden going to do since it releases Tuesday and can Favre make it through the season?

Sounds to me like GB (correctly so, given how poorly this was handled) wanted him as far away as possible. Read one report that if the Jets somehow send Favre to the Vikings, they have to give GB three first round choices.
EA released a statement a few days ago saying that Favre will be in the game as a free agent and can be placed on any team in franchise mode.Michael D'Angelo;1721003 said:Now my question is what is Madden going to do since it releases Tuesday
I actually heard yesterday (Wed) that he refused a trade to the Jets earlier in the week.He wanted to goto Tampa Bay.Fox said their trade was minimal & Green Bay refused it.He landed in Morristown at 0100AM & will be looking for houses today.
Faarrrrrr Verrrrrr Ahhhhhhh!!!!
Who's Brett Farve? Didn't he retire?
I wish the best for him, but not the Jets since I'm a Dolphin Fan. But I think he brought much of this on himself by retiring at the end of last season.
We all know how this country treats flip floppers.

Don't know how this will all work out... but a trade to Tamba Bay made no real sense if you think about it. Green Bay has "unproven" Rodgers so while there would be a perhaps ethical QB controversy, Favre was still "the man" there.
Tampa Bay, however, has a Pro Bowl QB in Jeff Garcia and they won their division last year with him... so it would be harder to oust a guy with proven experience than an unproven one... Tampa Bay would be every bit the QB controversy that Green Bay was shaping up to be AND in Tampa Favre wouldn't have loyalty/history with the team on his side.
Funny... I like when folks talk about Rodgers and say that "the first time he throws an interception" people will be calling for Favre and "Brett wouldn't have done that"... and yet, he was a gunslinger! IF Rodgers goes out and throws an other-team-interception-for-TD on his first pass of his first start... could anyone really really honestly say with a straight face that Favre wouldn't have done that?
The difference, historically, is that Favre would forget about it and drive down the field the next time... so people need to think about that with regards to Rodgers this year and look at how he handles the bad plays the next time out rather than scrutinizing every play looking for perfection.
Anyway, back to the topic... At least there's no real QB controversy in NY with the Jets, so of the proposed deals that made the most sense to both Green Bay and Favre. Granted, the Jets don't immediately become a playoff team just because of this trade, but they definately get better.
