But, he's like what, old as I am? His parts don't work as well as they did 20 years ago and his warranty is about to expire.

Well, we all know how old Vinny was last time he played for the Jets Gotta uphold the tradition - Chad and Clemens are too young

Anyways, should bring in some good revenue for the Jets and make this season an interesting one.

I would be intrested in what Favre has to say about it. I thought he didn't want to go to New York. Either way New York media is much less forgiving than what he is used to. Not to say he was never under the spotlight, but now its gotten much bigger.

Kerry Collins? LMFAO! Brett did have a pretty good season last year. If he can keep that up this year, things should be interesting.

Would be rather ironic to see a Jets/Packers Superbowl

Default Re: The Favre Era...

From what I understood, he could have went where ever he wanted, except the Vikings. He had "talks" with Tampa Bay.
IMO. Brett has tarnished his image with Green Bay. This is like V. Lombardi leaving to coach another team.
Emmit Smith decided he still wanted to play after great years in Dallas and went to the lowly Cardinals.
Joe Montana, same deal.

Brett surely isn't thinking about getting another Super Bowl ring, not with the Jets. I hope the Jets have a decent offensive line so Brett stays upright.

Jet Favre

The Packers put a poison pill in the trade deal for Minnesota (or same conference)....three "first round draft picks" to the Packers if you do trade him there. Sports politics.....still dirty.
but then again three trades down the road and no one ever heard of that deal .

Two free agent acquisitions, and a first round draft pick ought to give him an offensive line to hide behind. I hope the Jets stomp the Patriots, since they play each other so much, or used to.

Still Brett was a "God" in Green Bay and could do no wrong, even if he did.
Get ready to acquire "A New York State of Mind". No mercy.

1) Brett's image is more than just tarnished in Green Bay. It is tarnished everywhere.
2) The Jets will still smell slightly more pungent than eggs left out in the heat for 6 weeks.
3) The Patriots will still crush their division, including the Jets.
4) It will be New England then Buffalo in the East!

Favre is good for 2 more wins (making it 6) than last season.
Welcome to the AFC Brett. Prepare to be humbled.

I AM NOT A BILLS FAN!!!! I was trying to find a backhanded way to insult the Jets and Fins! For clarity, my teams are the Patriots and the Bucs, in that order. If I manage to draft David Garrard this year, I will also follow the Jags.
