favre_01.jpgAs much as the sports media loves to hate on guys like
A-Rod, there are also several guys out there that they just love to shower with affection. Derek Jeter immediately comes to mind-you would think that the guy has never made an out in his career. Curt Schilling is a pretty loved media darling, but his has taken a bit of a backlash of late. But no one comes close to resembling the disturbing obsession-barely hyperbole--that some in the media have for Brett Favre.


While it is hard to root against the guy, and while his story so far this year has been pretty amazing, it's safe to say that it has not deserved the following verbal shows of affection from the past month or so.

Thanks to the Media Circus for keeping track of these--presumably without throwing up.

7. Chris Berman

"And you know what? I don't care whether people are Packers fans or whatever, I'll reiterate what we said, rooting for Favre is like rooting for America."

I'm going to have to disagree with him. Only in pro wrestling are guys like rooting for America. Once Favre can carry an American flag onto the field with "Real American" blasting and the crowd chanting "USA! USA!" is he like rooting for America. Plus, the bigger question becomes, which player is like rooting for the Arctic Circle?


6. Chris Berman

"I think with Brett Favre, the smile that he still has, it must have been the same kid running around in Kiln, Mississippi, it's still the same kid, except he's running around often in the cold and the snow in Green Bay thrilling everybody. Congratulations Brett!"

So the 2007 Green Bay Packer football season is a combination of Rookie of the Year and Big, set in Mississippi, and there is a guy smiling a lot in snow.


5. Terry Bradshaw

"I mean, we don't see him do a thousand commercials so when we see one like Wrangler, I say he must really like those jeans. He must wear them. It's refreshing."

Right!


4. Chris Berman

"Brett Favre is going to be 38 October 10th. October 10th should be a national holiday."

Is he suggesting to replace Columbus Day with Favre Day? I see the comparison between the two. By the way, the best way to fix national holidays would be to move President's Day to the day after the Superbowl.


3. Jay Mariotti
"The rebirth of Favre is bad news for Bears fans. But it's great news for football, sports and, when you think about it, life."

If there is anyone to speak about analogies for life, it's Mr. Jay Mariotti.


2. Bill Plaschke

"The number one site in football thus far has been Brett Favre running down the field into the arms of his receivers. It's wonderful. America loves that. This team can play. Brett Favre is back. This guy has captured America."

Only Brett Favre can both be like rooting for America and capturing America. Also, it might be a bit stretching it to say that he has "captured" America. Only about 1/3 (maximum) of the country watches the Superbowl. If every one of them were in love with Brett Favre, he would have only captured a third of America.

"He's never changed. Please don't Brett. Not at this point. We know you won't."

This particular quote sounds like one that could have been thrown into that Bruce Springsteen "Secret Garden" remixed with Jerry Maguire lines, or perhaps a Full House episode-"She's never changed. Please don't Steph. Not at this point. We know you won't. Now go play with Comet."

I'm a BUC fan....I know...I know! Ever since Brett competed against the Bucs...years ago....I have had complete admiration for the guy! If a guy my age can have a hero...it's Brett Favre. That guy is lights out! ESPECIALLY at his age getting slammed around by these 300lb linemen. I'm impressed!!!! Very Impressed! I don't care how many times he changes his mind...I'm happy to see him in the NFL and best of all....WINNING!!
Hilary, January 18, 2010 12:01 PM
WOW! Imagine that, an NFL football player that wants to keep playing, break records and win a superbowl? WTF is he supposed to want to do? I mean really?! If he were on any other team right now...or back with the Packer's nobody would be bitching!! It would be the greatest thing to ever happen...blah blah blah! And Greggy...if you are going to say that he acts like a two year old..at least spell it right.
Greggy, January 7, 2010 12:01 AM
Brett Favre is a drama queen. If he's not in the spotlight then he cries for attention... I am retiring, I'm not retiring, I don't care about records, oh please mr. coach don't take me out of the game so I can stay in and break another record. Favre has become everything we thought he wasn't. He is not the god of football. He is not the only good quaterback to play the game. He is not the only NFL player that loves to play the game, other players just don't act like to year olds. He has proven that it is all about himself. He just wants to break records, and win the superbowl. He could careless about what team he is on. He only cars about himself. Yes he raises money for charity, but that doesn't make him a good role model.
David, December 16, 2009 01:12 PM
Favre is still Da' Man! 27 td's only 6 ints 11-2 with a passer rating of 107. All at the age of 40 is amazing!

Debra Congram, November 23, 2009 06:11 PM
You guys are a riot, you cranky old armchair critics - you keep arguing for Favre to go away because he's everything you aren't - rich and athletic and famous, not willing to retire because he loves his job. And look at him now - you guys must be going nuts! Favre looks more wonderful every week, still having fun playing football, which is why Americans who really love the NFL love Brett Favre, including lady football fans like me. Favre is a man's man, head-case or no, and he makes it fun to watch football. Enjoy the rest of the season, guys - I will for sure!
Jeff Jakups, November 15, 2009 02:11 PM
It is true that he has cheated on his wife, so don't laugh. He cheated on his wife when he would go up to his cabin in Crivitz wisconsin. He cheated on here and got kicked out of local bars.

Yeah, dude. Like Matthews I wonder about guys who have mancrushes, expecially in the world of sports. He does seem to make a big deal about how sissy soccer is which sometimes can show a guy who protests to much if you know what I mean.
Nealio, January 31, 2009 01:01 PM
Chris Berman provides hope for people who have no talent, no cognitive-intellectual capabilities, nothing truly to contribute to our culture, our nation and our world. His constant comments berating soccer with impunity--whether you agree or disagree, you can't deny that it IS the world's most popular and a very lucrative sport--serves as a case in point. He is master of over-the-top horseshit and self-importance. He's the sports version of Chris Matthews. All mouth, no class.
rick, December 30, 2008 02:12 AM
he used to have class (or so we thought) but now we know better. now go away. This time for good.

I'm sick of Favre and have had enough!!! Pennington has meant more to the Dolphins this year then Favre has to the Jets yet Favre gets all the hype. I hate people that get pissed when you root against Favre, I've never rooted for Favre he is everyone's generic "favorite player." Enough already!!!

gosh. people really need to get other themselves. brett favre is the best. always will be. hey if your a true football fan, you love favre.this is really funny how people try putting down brett and he keeps proving everyone wrong.don't hate him cause you ain't him.brett favre is the man, love him 4ever

Gary Linger, August 3, 2008 04:08 AM
It's so refreshing to see a media personality not gush over "Father Time" aka Brett Favre. Everybody makes such a big deal over Brett but the guy is not above the game of football. Sure Brett had a great year last year but what about the two or three years prior to last? One big year does not make Brett Favre timeless. People tend to forget that both Boomer Esiason and Phil Simms had a vintage year prior to their retirements and nobody was glorifying them and thinking they should continue their careers. I guess not jumping in a receivers arms hurt their image with the media. Neither of those two QB's mentioned could be considered lifeless drones!! Brett needs to swallow his pride and his ego. Aaron Rodgers has earned the right to be the man in Green Bay. He sat patiently while Favre flirted with retirement throughout his time in Green Bay and never complained. The Packers thought enough of this young man to draft him as the heir apparent to Brett and they are doing the right thing by allowing the guy a chance to prove himself. Brett can't hold the Packers hostage by making everything about him and allowing the organization to move on. Green Bay on the other hand needs to release Brett if they don't want him. Brett does have the right to come out of retirement and the Packers should not keep him from being able to play. If Brett does not go to a team with a good offensive line he will be mediocre at best anyhow. Let this circus end because we have been entertained long enough!!!

Fontes Mickey Ears:

One Super Bowl? Granted, they lost the 2nd one, but my point is you should do your homework.

As for the '96 Packers being lucky against NE? And the Packers went 13-3 that year. Great offense, great defense.

No consistency compared to Manning, Kelly, and Marino? Um, look at his stats. Marino might compare, Manning will some day, but Kelly? How many years in a row do you have to throw for 3K yards to get some credit? And his TD numbers before the Packers started sucking?

As for the championship thing...how many SBs did Marino win? How many has Manning got Indy to (with top-notch teams each year)? And how does a team effort, such as a Super Bowl win, translate directly to a QB's overall greatness? You destroy your own argument by bringing up Trent Dilfer's championship.

And none of the QBs you mentioned have the number of MVPs, wins, or TDs Favre does. Sure, he's got the most INTs...but considering the record was Blanda's before yesterday, you can't say that means the record holder sucks. Get over it.

If rooting for Favre is like rooting for America, does that mean that people in other countries hate the Packers?

And if so, does that mean that much of the world are Bears fans?

William, October 9, 2007 09:10 AM
You guys are crazy to be bashing Favre. 3 straight MVP awards in his prime and you all make it sound like he was just an average player? And think about this when comparing his throwing records: Manning (in a dome) Marino (nice weather) Favre (freezing cold / wind / rain / snow). Yes that's right he owns the touchdown record while playing his career in Green Bay. Manning is an amazing QB but I guarantee his numbers would be significantly lower if his home field was Lambeau all these years instead of the climate controlled QB paradise called the dome.

Now let's talk about Favre owning the consective games played streak. He once played WITH A BROKEN THUMB ON HIS THROWING HAND and went 3-1. And you guys bash him? Amazing. And don't forget he played all those years before the rules changed to protect the QB. He took shot after shot for years and kept getting up and making plays. That's why peple love the guy...he has the mentality of a linebacker and one of the best throwing arms in the history of this game. How can you not love that combination? Sure, the media puts him on a pedestal. That's no reason to completely turn on the guy and rip him apart. Remember, he doesn't write the scripts for the broadcasters, he just goes out and plays the game.

Don't have such short memories regarding the accuracy of his passing. He's had only 2 years in his entire career where he threw more picks than TD's. There were many years when he could thread the needle into double coverage with rocket passes that amazed everybody. No question, his best years are behind him and he has to throw safer passes like slants these days but hey...we all get older right? I for one hope he continues to have a great year and then retires on a high note. I hate to see legends of the game hang around to long because it distorts people's memories of how great they really were...and for evidence of that just look at all the people ripping him apart on this very website.
Fontes Mickey Ears, October 9, 2007 08:10 AM
I love the TD/TO ratio that was posted earlier in this. 1.01 TD's per INT+FMB is amazing.

Farve has taken the Packers to one Super Bowl, and was fortunate enough that the team they met had a statue for a QB and whose main recieving threat was a slow TE. On top of that, they probably don't win without Desmond Howard.

It's crazy how he's just given a spot in the pantheon of great QBs of this era. He hasn't had close to the championship success of an Aikman, Young, or Brady, or the consistent statistical success of a Manning, Kelly, or Marino. He's lead as many teams to Super Bowls as Trent Dilfer has- that should tell you how much stock leading a team to a Super Bowl should be given.

Half of you people wish you had Brett on your team.Maybe your team would have won a SuperBowl.I do agree the Bears still suck and the Cubs will never win anything bigger than what they did this year nothing but a trip home.

You know, it is funny. I am from Ohio, I'm a Browns fan, and i too love Brett Favre. I can't explain it. I don't know about some of the over dramatic, curiously fruity things that some of the 'experts' say in the media, but I do enjoy watching him play well. Maybe it's because of the things he does wrong, making him more of a normal person, like you and me that makes him so appealing. The lousy interception he threw to Urlacher the other night is a stupid mistake I would make if I were in that game, but he (usually) bounces back to do something great. He needs to learn how to spell though.

Wild Joe, October 8, 2007 02:10 PM
Favre may have tied the altime record for most ints, but he has thrown over twice as many passes as George Blanda, who is ahead of him.
Rich, October 8, 2007 12:10 PM
I just wish Farve would go away and take Roger Clemens and that big fat joke Chris Berman.

Boy oh boy. Can we talk more about Notre Dame or the SEC division in college football. Can we talk more about the Yanks for baseball, lets not forget Lebron and Tiger in their respective sports. As much as I hate everybody I just talked about, they get it done((for the most part)). That is why the media loves em.

Bilroni, October 8, 2007 10:10 AM
Brett Favre is a Joke! The guy does nothing but throw screens and slants this year, and everyone is praising him for it. Aaron Rodgers could make every throw that Favre has made this season. Favre is also the king of 1 to 3 yard TD's on 1st down, and says he loves the Packers but wont them know until the last minute if he is coming back. He is a stat whore, a drama queen, and he also happens to be a jerk. Good for him, he got the TD record by throwing 1 yard TD's, but whey doesn't anyone mention the fact that he is one INT away from being the all time leader in INT's. Yeah, great job Brett.
Bill, October 8, 2007 08:10 AM

Brett Favre will be sent to Iraq to end the war, to Africa to end hunger, he will end the Jew/Palestinian conflict, he will cure AIDS, he will land on the moon and then he will top it all off by buggering John Madden on Monday Night Football. By the way, he set the all time interception record last night, Berman. Mention THAT in your nightly homoerotic ode to GOD in cleats.
tHANk you, October 8, 2007 08:10 AM
Finally--someone who shares my feelings. Dear god, please let it go--he's a daxn football player. Why has the media insisted on making him into a god-like super hero? I can't stand him--or Berman, or Madden, or Bradshaw, or any of these felatiating idiots.

I notice ESPN didn't mention the fact that he has thrown more interceptions than any other human being.

i hate when i screw up a punchline with a typo... the Berman quote should say HAPPY.. not happen... i suck

oh.. and one more stat about farve and turnovers - if you include ALL fumbles, not just fumbles lost... he's at 1.01 TDs per "balls that left his hand in other ways than incomplete/complete passes"
This Guy... one more, October 5, 2007 06:10 PM
Hey, Packer Backer...

while reading your post about diggin up stuff on other great QBs... something struck me as odd. Why did you include Danny White into that mix? A moderatly sucessful QB in the 80's for a not so great Cowboys team... he never lead the NFL in any stat in a season and is not in the top 50 in any major stat catagory... i'm just wondering because i just thought it was pretty weird...
this guy, October 5, 2007 06:10 PM
OH.. and it's entirely possible for him to reach his 350th career turnover (INT/FUM) this season... Factor in fumbles lost into his numbers... and he, over his ENTIRE career... averages 1.2 touchdowns for every turnover... yikes..
This Guy, October 5, 2007 06:10 PM
Hey Jaws, I'm with you. At first i though Rob was just kidding ala "Bill Simmons" usual JSF comments, but as i read on... he is completely serious! I'll give him a little credit... Farve is semi-entertaining to watch... i mean the guy is about to break the INT record!!! Who doesn't want to see that? The media gets a ginormous pants rock (and knowing Berman, he walks around saying "Is that a banana in my pants, or am i just happen to see Farve? WHOOP!!!") when Numero Quattro takes the field. If you cant see that, you're mildy blind, deaf and dont speak English. The only thing i can think of to explain this phenomenon is Farve goes door to door in the GB area and perfoms some sort of weird magic/hypnosis/sexual favor on every person. Then makes special roadtrips to various sportswriter's homes to perform the same "act" on them. Thats the only logical explination. I mean... the guy is a really average QB thats managed to stretch it out over a 15 year career... 61.2 completion percentage, 85.3 QB rating... okay okay.. slightly above average... minus the 1.5 TD per INT stat. That is bad.. really bad...

Packer Backer, October 5, 2007 08:10 AM
Okaaayyyy...I'm thinking this Top-7 is getting WAY more serious commentary than it deserves.

What prominent NFL QB has NOT had some sort of controversial incidences off the field? Hell, they could probably dig up some crap on Manning, Montana, Young, Marino, White, Staubach, Namath...the list goes on and on. What about Bradshaw? C'mon, you can't tell me that he wasn't having a good ol' time with Burt and his crew while filming Canonball Run!!!

Jeeeeee-sus H freakin' Christ...Favre is just another multi-millionaire sports icon who can do whatever he wants. This is NOT Russia...wait, this isn't Russia, right?...Is it?...no?...good.
Mark D, October 5, 2007 07:10 AM
Please please please.... will somebody frame Farve for picking up a hooker while snorting crack out of her crack? That might be the only thing to put this ESPN-wide mancrush on Farve to an end...
On second thought, they'd probably just hire him to replace Michael Irvin. Maybe we ought to make it a male prostitue instead?
the truth, October 5, 2007 07:10 AM
I didn't know that many people read this site. Good work JSF you guys are all growns up. For you Farve fans I have a tape of Farve taking pain killers than peeing in a 12 year olds butt! If you don't cough up $17.00 Canadian I'm posting it on You tube!!

Favre's not a family man. He cheats on his wife constantly.
Packer Backer, October 5, 2007 05:10 AM
Favre "bangs Leslie Visser"??

Comet says that like it's a BAD thing.

Painkillers...c'mon, we all experimented in our mid-20s, didn't we?!!

Failing to mentor Rodgers...well, Rodgers DID go to Cal on the SHORT Bus!!

BTW, if Tony LaRussa doesn't come back here as mananger, will Saint Louis have a tougher time attracting big time rock & roll acts like REO, Bruce Hornsby, & STYX?

Greatest finish to a post ever goes to Alex!!!! Well done.

I can't help but think that when Brett isn't wearing his uniform or a sweet pair of Wrangler jorts, that maybe he drapes himself in a bit of leather. Leather pants , or even possibly a leather vest. It would definitely explain the Bherhhmann obsession.

The only true national holiday fix would be to change the Fourth of July to Independence Day and make it the first Monday in July.

Can you imagine the VP Fair building momentum, anticipation, and excitement over the first two days then climaxing with REO Speedwagon, funnel cake, and kick ass fire works on Monday?

That sir, is the essence of America.
alex, October 5, 2007 04:10 AM
Yeah, Major... Like Rob said: "STOP HATIN AND START APPRECIATING!!!!!"

Go Favre! Fvavre! FVAvAVre! VAfAVREF!
Comet, October 5, 2007 04:10 AM
Yes. I could see how hot she was going to be at an early age -- much better than Uncle Jessie's leg, that's for sure.

And I'll tell ya, I don't get the love affair with Favre, at least, not to the extreme that this article illustrates. Do you humans forget that he abused painkillers, failed to mentor Aaron Rodgers or bangs Leslie Visser?
The truth, October 5, 2007 04:10 AM
Is Comet getting ready to mount Michelle?
Rob, October 5, 2007 04:10 AM

In Plaschke's quote, I believe the word you're meaning to use is "sight," as opposed to "site."

I can't help but think that the only "site" Bill Plaschke might visit is his own!
Patrick, October 5, 2007 03:10 AM
Berman's obsession really is bizarre. It comes across to me that he's so proud and so intent to prove to everyone that he's boys with Brett. He's the master of Favre-imonies.
Ernest, October 5, 2007 03:10 AM
So every time Berman interviews Brett Favre, does he drop to his knees and slurp before, or after, they start talking?
That Guy, October 5, 2007 02:10 AM
I did not know that Grandma ma was from Papa New Guinea. I did not know that I was this lame either.
J. Madden, October 5, 2007 02:10 AM
None of these guys come close to capturing the essence of Brett Farve, who really must be the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Q. When did Brett Favre know he wanted to be a football player?
A. When he was fouvre or fivre.

Pascual Peres

Perez elected to sign on with the Expos as a minor league pitcher only after he was the last cut in an audition to become a back up dancer for the R&B group El Debarge.
