I don't understand why Brett Favre is so much bigger a story outside the football season then during it when he's playing at an MVP level. -- nm

Farve may not being getting the air time of Brees or Peyton, but their teams are undefeated. How is Chris Johnson still so anonymous? - musubi Nov 24, 11:50 15
- if their wins and losses were reversed, he would not be. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 24, 11:51 14
  - If I didn't play Fantasy Football, I honestly don't think I'd have heard one thing about him this season. That's crazy. (nm) - musubi Nov 24, 11:54 13
    - If he makes a serious run at 2,000 yards, he'll be a big story in mid-December. -- nm - David Nov 24, 11:57 3
      - is that even a question? - groiny Nov 24, 11:58 2
        
        He's 8 yards off the pace he needs after 10 games. As long as he stays healthy, I fully expect him to get in that range. -- nm - David Nov 24, 12:01 1
        
        he did not have a good first 2 weeks IIRC. - groiny Nov 24, 12:02
    - FF is the reason Football is as popular as it is today. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 24, 11:55 8
      - No, I don't think so. It's because of their TV contracts. Coverage by 3 networks and ESPN. - musubi Nov 24, 11:59 7
        
        the popularity of FF is unrivaled in fantasy sports. - groiny Nov 24, 12:00 6
        
        Read what I wrote. FF is popular *because of the TV ratings*, not the other way around. - musubi Nov 24, 12:02 5
        
        I did, and I disagree completely. - groiny Nov 24, 12:05 4
        
        So you think football has good ratings *because* of fantasy football. I respectfully disagree. (nm) - musubi Nov 24, 12:07 3
        
        I think you are both wrong. - Spawn Nov 24, 12:09 1
        
        way to pick a side. - groiny Nov 24, 12:09
        
        It sure keeps people in Detroit, Washington, Cleveland interested in it. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 24, 12:08
Honestly...because of the media. They made everything about Brett Favre in the offseason to the point that even Viking fans didn't want to hear about - Jim Nov 24, 11:43
i don't understand brett favre (period). -- nm - reluctantcynic (en treo) Nov 24, 11:42 2
- chile, please. Understanding Brett Favre is like dancing about architecture. -- nm - Diva Nov 24, 11:43

- No, I see Drew Brees and Peyton Manning getting a ton more attention than him. - David Nov 24, 11:43 5

  - Brady is getting back up there as well. - groiny Nov 24, 11:44 3
    - The losses are piling up on him, though. -- nm - Spawn Nov 24, 11:45

      - well, it is good to see them finally give him a legit shot. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 24, 11:45
- Not really. -- nm - Spawn Nov 24, 11:42 1
  - Then again, this is the belly of a different beast. -- nm - Spawn Nov 24, 11:43
- not as much as pre season, I agree with David on that. - groiny Nov 24, 11:42
DBTH. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 24, 11:41
We all await his imminent collapse. -- nm - Spawn Nov 24, 11:41
