Favre $10K lighter

Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre was fined $10,000 Friday for that illegal crackback block he did against the Texans' Eugene Wilson this past Monday.

My blog about the play in question is here. I guess the NFL made You Tube pull the plug on the video.

Favre now resorting to dirty plays in exhibition season

Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre, lining up in the slot on a unconventional gadget play (AKA Wildcat formation play) in the third quarter Monday, threw an illegal "crackback block" on Houston Texans' safety Eugene Wilson. Wilson had to leave the game with an undetermined injury. Have a look below:



What next for Favre? Is he going to pull out a gun, like from the movie "The Last Boy Scout" and start shooting?

Favre believes he may have cracked rib

Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre told ESPN's Monday Night Football crew Monday that he might have a cracked rib.

Did he seek a medical diagnosis from team physicians? I think something's cracked alright, but it's usually covered by a helmet or his baseball cap.

Favre has Green Bay fuming

I just read an article by Yahoo! Sports' Charles Robinson Wednesday, and he hit the nail on the head. Brett Favre, who signed a 2-year contract Tuesday to be the quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings said, “If you’re a true Packer fan, you understand.”

I AM a true PACKER fan, not a FAVRE fan. Although I loved having Favre play for the Packers, he no longer plays for the Packers. That is pretty much how most TRUE PACKER fans will see him now --- as the enemy. I've been a Packer fan since the early '80s, about 10 years before Favre was traded to the Packers from the Falcons. I thank Favre for his 16 years of playing for the Packers, but now he is enemy since he crossed that bitter rivalry line. He will have his #4 retired someday, but it will most likely be posthumously now. If you think true Packer fans will support you now that you pretty much thumbed your nose at the Packers tradition and signed with the hated Vikings, you are sadly mistaken.
