Still didn't answer the question. How exactly is Brett Favre a media whore?

Interesting that when the facts around your opinion are challenged you revert to dick jokes, instead of a logical discussion. I guess they don't have the internet in Canada as well.

Makes sense. His "Media Whoreism" really helps a guy that chooses to live on a ranch in the middle of Mississippi, right where all the media has easy access to him. I'm sure Brett Favre's "media whorism" will last all offseason when ESPN tries to turn it into a story again. The Beauty of being brainwashed is you don't even realize it.

Please explain how he was a media whore? Did he call ESPN and create a show called the "Indecision?" Did he call people in for interviews? Did he make any attempt to have people come down to his land and follow him around while he decides? The media came to him, he didn't come to media, and the few interviews he granted far outweigh the interviews he turned down. This is not really the actions of a "media whore." If ESPN decides to take the slow sports season of the summer and report on every time Brett Favre picks his wedgie, how is Brett Favre a media whore? Explain to me how one player holds a franchise in "Limbo" and which franchise are you saying was in "Limbo?" This is more ESPN opinion, word for word, than reality. The Pack wasn't in "Limbo" they has a QB ready to go. The Jets weren't in "Limbo" they were done with Favre's injuries and drafted a QB. The Vikes weren't in "Limbo" in 2009. Where Favre proved everybody wrong and had one of the best seasons of his long career. The Vikes maybe were in "Limbo" in 2010. They knew TJAX sucked, and needed Favre to come back. So I'll give ESPN the 2010 Vikes. Clearly the Vikes shouldn't have sent the team down to convince him to come back, and clearly the management screwed up by not getting a viable option behind Favre.

Thanks. I fixed it.

San Jose, Your opinion is more open minded then most fans' opinion. Yes I agree that Spiller could be lined up in different positions including slot. I am definitely not saying he should not be used as the dynamic player that he can be. Motion him out like Faulk and Thurman, line him in the slot. I'm all for it. However my post is in response to the "Let Spiller prove his draft worth by becoming a WR" or "Spiller's future on the Bills" sentiment. There are more people saying that Spiller is hopeless at RB and a wasted pick than there are people saying using Spiller more dynamically. I disagree that Spiller is hopeless as a RB. People are saying that he should be a primary or secondary receiver, and thats how I read this thread. I would like to see a two back set where Spiller is motioned to the slot. What the Bills' offense is doing seems to be working, but I too don't understand why they wouldn't add this wrinkle to the offense.

I guarantee he outperforms Lee Evans 0 catches for 0 yards in the last game (he played for 2 QTRS.) I also have money that he out performers Lee Evans 2.8 catches for 45 yards a game average this season.

How would you like it if your bosses came to you and said, "You know you're getting up there. You should really hang it up. Do you really want to wake up every morning and go to work, you can go play with the grand kids instead." You agree with them at the time (March 4th to be exact) Then when you get time alone to think about, you still want to work but your company says "Sorry we hired your replacement." Then you say "fine, I have a few job opportunities at other companies," Then your original employee tries to prevent you from working at a competitor. What is classless about changing your mind and still wanting to work? Is it not more classless, to try and send an employee to early retirement and then prevent them from trying to work when they decide they still want to work? People act like deciding to retire is a decision on par with deciding what color socks you want to wear. Retiring is one of the biggest decisions anyone will make in your life, its not cut and dry. 4 weeks in between the NFC championship and game and Free Agency timetable for the Packers is probably not enough time for anyone to make that decision. Most people plan for retirement for decades not weeks. Most NFL QBs don't have the luxury to decide, most QBs have their career ended for them. No one was asking Dan Marino or Joe Montana for one more season. An NFL team asking a 40 year old man to come back for 1 more season has never happened before and will probably never happen again. I don't understand how this reflects poorly on Brett Favre.

When the team goes to the AFC championship game 5 out of 6 years, I think you had a point. Fans were like, "Ah, its a divisional playoff game, who cares." I don't think we have to worry about that anytime soon. If the Bills make the playoffs and have a home game in the next 3 years it will be an insane event. I will be there. If we go to to the AFC championship every year from 2015-2021 then maybe yeah they might sell out a divisional round, but lets not pretend that this will ever happen again in the history of the Buffalo Bills. Its kind of irrelevant.

He's not a WR he is a RB, he is not tiny For a RB, he is 5-11 200 and to my eye it looks like he is playing with extra 5 to 10 pounds. He is running between the tackles effectively. He is averaging 4 yards a carry. He just isn't getting the touches. I think it's because he is struggling with blocking assignments. The Bills offense seems to have a lot of audibles and if they don't have confidence in his blocking ability they may be worried about audibling to a pass play. He is not a WR. This concept is based on draftnek talk and the use of Reggie Bush not on CJ Spillers actual play. Freddie Jackson is a complete back. It took him 6 or 7 years and 3 leagues to get there. Freddy is getting the ball in the 4th because he had sure hands and can pass block when needed. CJ is not there yet. The notion that RBs just plug into an offense out of college is not true. The position has the easiest transition, yes. However there are more examples of RB getting better over time than coming in and rushing for 1000 yards. You can hold his draft position against him if you like, CJ needs to work on pass blocking to get more carries. Good thing we have OTA s and training camp for that. If you don't see the potential in the young RB well then you get to be surprised when he puts it together.

So it's classless that he wanted to continue to play football, when the leadership of the franchise decided his career was over? What other player is asked "are you sure you don't want to retire? Why don't you retire now?" Usually it's just assumed you'll be back the next season if you're under contract. The Packers created the situation. When the leadership wanted to get thier new shiny toy on the field and send the old man to the scrap heap, it was classless of him to ask to be traded to a team where he could still play? You're welcome to your opinion but it sounds like your opinion comes straight from Sportscenter. I don't think it's classless for a player to want to play.

You mean ESPN's classless coverage. What did Brett Favre do that was classless? How is Favre's fault that ESPN reported every time he hiccuped, coughed, or farted?

Thats a huge IF. Yes he is the most explosive but it's hard to take advantage of his returns when the other team has the ball. He cannot be allowed to k or PR anymore. 4 out of 18 Kr were fumbled in the last two years. He has a lot of work to be a good fundamentally sound CB instead of a player that depends on his athletic ability to make up for bad technique.

Cutting Lee is Silly, but letting him play out his contract and walk is probably not a bad idea. Lee Evans' "decoy" effect on the defense is far over estimated by many fans, but Lee is still a good WR, just not great. Its actually very fortunate for Buffalo. I kind of thought that Lee was mailing it in the last few games, now he can go rest and relax, its just an ankle he'll be ready for Training Camp Fo' Sho'. It gives an opportunity for Nelson and Jones to prove their worth. I for one am excited to have a WR on the other side of the field that contributes with receptions and yards as opposed to the myth that he is double covered on every play.

Great to see him focusing on playing CB, not K or PR. He definitely made some big pass breakups and big hits. I'd like to see him continue to focus on him CB duties. We have more than enough people that can handle K or PR duties.

Charles Woodson, was ROY and NFL Defensive player of the year. He had a lot more downs than ups in between but I don't think you can call him a bust. Yeah I know I called that one too early. I have little faith that the Tebow will be a good NFL QB.

I was at the game last Sunday at the Metrodome, and I was commenting how weird the roof is. Its not really a dome, its like a giant nylon bag tied down to scaffolding. I can totally believe that crap collapsed. It looked like something you would slap together if you were stranded in the woods.

Not that Luck won, but I told you Luck would pick up the few anti-Cam votes. Cam officially has the Heisman jinx now. Eddie George is the last player to live up to their NFL potential that won the Heisman. 1995 Eddie George Ohio State - All Pro 1996 Danny Wuerffel Florida - Bust 1997 Charles Woodson Michigan - Marginal CB - All Pro Safety 1998 Ricky Williams Texas - Headcase - never reached potential - good NFL player 1999 Ron Dayne Wisconsin - bust 2000 Chris Weinke Florida State - bust 2001 Eric Crouch Nebraska - bust 2002 Carson Palmer* USC - heading for All Pro until injury 2003 Jason White Oklahoma - Who the hell is this guy? 2004 Matt Leinart USC - bust 2005 Reggie Bush (vacated)USC - good player not an all pro 2006 Troy Smith Ohio State - bust 2007 Tim Tebow Florida - bust 2008 Sam Bradford* Oklahoma - Potential 2009 Mark Ingram, Jr. Alabama - ???? 2010 Cameron Newton Auburn - ????

No!!!! The Erection Company is rooster blocked again.

You know in the offseason they sign and draft players, right? If there is any position on the 2011 Oline that will change it will be RT

I could only hope. Plus I think only Malcolm Floyd was a 1st round pick so they were able to get those thoroughbreds cheap.

I thought Limas Sweed was going to be a stud and was pissed when we didn't get him, another UT bust. I guess I was wrong. He is currently unemployed and rehanging an achilles. I'm sure someone will invite Sweed to camp next year. It's like a free draft pick.

It's not complicated. You play to win the game.

I know! And he didn't immediately fumble or tip the ball to a defender! Crazy. "Hey McKelvin, remember when I had that guy hold you up and then I stripped the ball out of your hands? Then my team won the game with 2 mins left. That was awesome!"
