        <body>Re: pronouncing Favre...All his relatives in South Mississippi who have the same name pronounce it with a Cajun twist...FAWVE.
It's the big-time announcers who didn't take the trouble to find out how the name is pronounced.... for more than 16 years.</body>

        <body>who the **** cares anymore?! I completely blame the media for me hating Brett Favre now. I liked him until this story was completely beaten to death and shoved down my throat. I know people might say &amp;quot;why don't you just stop watching ESPN or something&amp;quot;. The problem is, they do it in local TV and newspapers, and everywhere online. Good work media, you turned him into a villain.</body>

        <body>I'm with Smoothsandy. Isn't there someone else we can pontificate about? Write about? Dedicate an entire section of a publication's Web site to? Don't all traded/new players have to go through the same &amp;quot;assimilation&amp;quot; process that Favre will have to go through with the Jets? Let's move on to someone else.</body>

        <body>Who really cares?  The Jets are now a slightly better team at 1 position, the Pack are pretty much where they have been and the NFC North is now the Vikings to lose.  Here's my stab at bein a modern day Nostradamus:  Jets go a miserable 8-8 with Favre playing 80% of the games. He promptly retires after the season.  The **** will go a paltry 5-11 due to Rogers breaking his leg in week 1 and to the fluke Ryan Grant gaining a whopping 878 yards on the ground (can anyone say One Hit Wonder).  Coach calls Favre and tells him they'll rename Lambeau; Favre Field.  Favre says ok and resigns, then promptly retires.  Meanwhile, amidst all the hooplah, the Vikes go a solid 12-4, beating the Pack both times, then beating the Cowboys in a tight one in the NFC Championship game en route to the Bowl where they'll put the Norse Hammer down on the Colts to become first time champions of the league.  Favre comes out of retirement to sign a 2 year deal with the newborn dynasty, I go buy a #4 jersey, only for Mr. Favre to then....promptly retire.  the end.....</body>

  <body>&lt;p&gt;The Brett Favre saga is finally over. Five months after he retired, and four days after the commissioner reinstated him, the Packers traded the face of its franchise to to the Jets for a conditional fourth-round pick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How will the post-Favre Packers fare? Will Favre immediately turn around the Jets, who are&amp;nbsp;coming off a&amp;nbsp;4-12 season?
