Everbody Hates Favre!

Thomas Jones threw Brett Favre under the Madden Horse Trailer this week when he told the world...
"The other day, the three interceptions really hurt us. I mean, that's just reality... If I were to sit here and say, 'Oh, man, it's OK,' that's not reality. ... I don't like it, I know everybody else on the team doesn't like it!"
He wanted Brett Favre out of the game when he was playing poorly and felt like the NFL's cry baby was getting special treatment.
"If somebody is not playing well, they need to come out of the game. You're jeopardizing the whole team because you're having a bad day. To me, that's not fair to everybody else. You're not the only one on the team. So when you get to the wire and somebody is just giving the game up, I mean, it's just not [fair]."


But Thomas Jones wasn't the only one....
Safety Kerry Rhodes gave Fav-ruh an ultimatum, "If he's dedicated and he wants to come back and do this, and do it the right way ... and be here when we're here in training camp and the minicamps and working out with us ... then I'm fine with it. But don't come back if it's going to be half-hearted or he doesn't want to put the time in with us."

But is all this hostility really over Favre's chokingly delicious performance against the Dolphins? Or is it his 'Tiki Barber-like' attitude?


Other Jets were quoted as calling Favre a "distant" teammate. He refused to eat with his teammates, didn't engage in team activities and spent his downtime away from teammates in an office specially designated for him refusing to socialize with other players.
My favorite was a player quoted as saying "The guy throws the ball all over the place and no one calls him out on it!"

Looks like Favre's inability to play well with others extends past the field of play and into the locker room. Go easy on him guys, you wouldn't want to force him into retirement, before he is ready...
