Garb Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 You do know that Brady was on the cover of last weeks SI, right? All teams should just tell SI to go to hell when they come calling. I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hopefully this gives Peter King a stroke. well, he already figured out how to spin it http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/peter_king/09/09/mail/index.html?eref=T1 MMQB Mail: Why Favre might be kicking himself; more Brady fallout Story Highlights Had Favre listened to Goodell, he might have been a Patriot Cassel's situation is far different from Brady's in '01 Brett Favre very well could have been on the Jets' opposing sideline this Sunday. Scott Cunningham/Getty Images The Patriots are at the center of the NFL universe again, for lots of reasons. Five questions, one very insightful E-mail from a Central Michigan Chippewa, five answers: 1. Is Brett Favre jealous this morning? Reader Jon Hall, of Alpena, Mich., the interested Chippewa (that's the Central Michigan nickname, and not many people who did not go to a Mid-American Conference school would know that) writes thusly: "Here is an interesting scenario for you Mr. King. Suppose Brett Favre took the commissioner's advice six weeks ago and stayed semi-retired until the season started. This way he could be traded to a contending team if they lost their starting QB. Favre could have been a Patriot as early as today and would be throwing touchdowns to his boy, Randy Moss.'' You, Jon Hall, are the e-mailer of the year. This is a sensitive week, this being Jets-Pats week, with Favre leading Gang Green against the dreaded rivals to the northeast. So you won't find Favre touching this concept with a 10-foot goalpost. But my very, very strong opinion is that had Favre stayed retired, and if Brady got hurt, and if the Patriots came calling (which they most certainly would have), Favre would be in Foxboro today. He wouldn't be preparing to face the Jets Sunday, though. That job would still fall to Matt Cassel. I think they'd have more likely tried to get through their Week 4 bye, playing the Jets and Dolphins with Cassel, before playing Favre Oct. 5 at San Francisco. But I can tell you from being with Favre in late July that this type of scenario is one he considered. At the end of the day, it just wasn't something he could count on. Peyton Manning's started every game since 1998, and Tom Brady's started every game since September 2001. Those kind of jobs don't open up very often. Obviously, it's a fluke thing that the quarterback job of a great team opened after 15 plays of the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billo83 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hopefully this gives Peter King a stroke. He actually gives some people hope. It's obviously easy to be a sportswriter: you just have to be fat, have no clue about what you are talking about, and defend your favorite team at all costs.

ProudGOPPatriot Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 this would never have played out. is there hunting in the boston area? haha. good point. Massachusetts Libs only allow hunting with nerf bullets. And you have to apologize after you shoot at the animal, and of course pay a fee to the state when you are done.
