Favre has been playing the media for years.

They eat up his "aw shucks," routine. "Ol' Brett loves the game," blah blah blah.

Here's what it'll sound like:

Peter King: "Brett, when you, your wife and I all had lunch together last month, I noticed that you really had that fire in your eyes ... that competitiveness that we've all grown to love."

Favre: "Well, shucks, Peter. I just love to play football."

John Madden (calling in from his bus). "Heh, heh, Brett. Ummm, uh, you are what football is all about ... heh heh. I just wanted to call in to tell you that. Uhhh, you make the game fun .... with all the stuff hanging out ...and the sweat and all that stuff."

Favre: (farts ... the media roars with laughter). "Thanks, John. Save a turkey leg for me, good buddy."

Anonymous Green Bay writer: "Brett, will you sign my shirt?"

Favre: "Sure .... got any pills?"

FALSE ALARM ON FAVRE?

After further review, it now appears that Brett Favre's Wednesday press conference is simply a standard, weekly media get-together.

The root of the problem was that KSTP-TV in Minneapolis sold the thing as an unusual, out-of-the-norm event with this post from a couple of hours ago:

"Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre will hold a news conference at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday in the Lambeau Field media auditorium.

"There's no indication at this point what the legendary Packer quarterback is going to announce. The Packers lost their first preseason game of the year by two touchdowns to the San Diego Chargers."

As it turns out, he's not expected to "announce" anything.

Sheesh. You'd think that a TV station in a rival's market not far from Wisconsin would know this.

Did any of you see the pre-season game last week? What am I saying, of course you did, because like myself you were watching NFL Network waiting to see if they'd break in with the Cowboys.

At any rate, Favre got absolutely hammered in that game. It was really sad to see. He played late into the second quarter of a meaningless first pre-season game and took hit after hit on every play.

I wouldn't doubt at all that this is a surprise retirement press conference.

:laugh1:

I really believe Favre loves the attention as much as any T.O. and the media falls all over themselves to give it.

Blame the publicist when your golf tournament draws nationwide press attendance (wink).

Act indignant when your personal issues such as pill-popping and excessive drinking come into play (wink).

He is the only player in the NFL right now I am sure gets publicity for his family's struggles, including bouts with cancer, car accidents and houses being demolished by natural disasters.

Hasn't Favre Gotten a free pass in the Media?, who else throws such Stupid Int's a no one calls him out on it. All they say is that Brett was trying to make things happen. And how big is Madden's case of Manlove on Favre.

Sheesh, you'd think the great PFT sources were something besides Florio getting a report from a Minnesota TV station.

Oh wait, I kind of knew that.
