Local radio guys are already stating that he is dead to them if this is true and that he should retire a Jet. I am not ready to go that far yet, but if it is true it is inexplicable. Favre has lied so many times that you can't really believe anything he says. I especially love the story Paul Hornung told of Brett. Brett and Paul were out golfing and of course drinking and drinking pretty heavily. Later that day Brett comes on Hornung's talk show and Paul asks him about his drinking problem and Brett looks him straight in the face and says I haven't had a drink in over a year. This after he and brett were drinking all day. Just shows the character of brett.

I'm no Favre apologist, but what the hell kind of question is that to ask Favre on your radio show after you've been out drinking with him all day?
That's like me doing drugs with you all day, and then when all of your friends are around, pressing you to tell everyone how your drug problem is going.
Hornung is just as much of a piece of **** as Favre. Racist too.
As for the topic at hand, Favre sucks as a person and is super dramatic, so I wouldn't put it past him to pull something like this, but all it is is hearsay at this point.
I agree though, that if it is true, it's a pretty stinging indictment of where his priorities are. Pretty egregious considering how bad he's been in the last two games.
