Thankfully, let's put that thing to bed. Actually, the only ones keeping that comparison alive are the folks at ESPN, like Kornheiser, for they can't come up with anything original to talk about !!

Wait, while I think of it.........

- You know, this Peyton Manning guy is OK, but he's no Bert Jones !
- Tom Brady, well, he's hurt now, but even while healthy he is no Steve Grogan. Or Jim Plunkett, for that matter !
- Carson Palmer is no Turk Schonert....and let's not even get into Ken Anderson !!!
- Ben Roethlisberger (spell check) will never be confused with Mark Malone
- Kyle Orton can't hold a candle to Mike Phipps, Bob Avellini, Gary Huff, Virgil Carter, Mike Tomczak, and certainly not Rick Mirer !!!

Ugh...............different teams, different years - please, let's stop the insane 'comparisons', and instead focus on what each player & team can do to make themselves better this year !!

(and yes....I WAS being sarcastic with my comparisons above)

Nice article !

OK, I'm gonna re-post something I did back when the whole Brett Favre fiasco was getting 24/7 coverage by every ESPN station - hope you enjoy this (again) !!

---------------------------------------------------------------

"Stuart Scott here in the capital of the free world, Bristol, CN.     Wait, let me take off my Red Sox jersy & hat before we go on air !    OK, it appears that Brett Favre, when walking past the front door of the Packers front office, sneezed.     Wait, we're getting conflicting reports - was it a sneeze, perhaps just a cough, or did Brett make a rude gesture to the front office ?       Let's go to Sal Palantonio for an update:

"Yes Stuart, I am camped out here in front of the Packers front office, and have been for 6 days without showering.     I have accumulated enough Monopoly pieces from McDonalds to buy Park Place outright from Donald Trump.      Back to the issue at hand - was it a sneeze or something else ?       My sources tell me that Brett has been feeling fine lately; he regularly drinks 3 glasses of orange juice for breakfast so he's getting vitamin C.     We know this for a fact because I have Shelley Smith going through the Favre's garbage cans at night to verify this fact.     So, it likely is NOT a sneeze, for he's hydrated and taking his vitamins.   There were bugs flying around the front office, so it's possible that a bug flew into front of Brett's face; we'll go to an expert on that in a second.      However, Chris Mortensen now has breaking news about a possible 'gesture'; Chris ?"

"Thanks Sal, Chris Mortensen here, and not only haven't I showered for a week, but I've been crapping in the bushes to make sure I am here just in case of breaking news.     I have word just in that it likely was NOT a rude gesture; rather, Brett may have seen his reflection in the mirror, realized how grey his hair & beard are, and that perhaps he should NOT be coming back.      No word on whether he contacted Walt Frazier or Keith Hernandez on joining the 'Just for Men' commericals, though my source tells me that the Just For Men people have already contacted Brett by using the Minnesota Vikings cell phone #.     Back to you Sal"

"Thanks Chris, and now on to John Clayton, standing by with Herman Whogivesaflyingf*ck, the curator of the Green Bay musuem, John:"

"Thanks Sal, John Clayton here, and I've been camping out so long here that I'm starting to pick up desparate chicks here in Green Bay.     Herman, what can you tell us about the flies ?"

"Well John, there's not much to say - there are a lot of bugs in this area this time of year......plus with Mortensen crapping in the bushes, there's going to be a lot of flies !"

"Thanks Herman, back to you Stuart.....I got to run, I see another local chick, crying & wearing her #4 jersey.....John Clayton reporting, and getting lucky for the first time in my life !!!"

"Thank you all, and a big 'BOO-YAH' to each of you for that hard hitting report.      This is Stuart Scott reporting on the lastest in the Brett Favre situation and, oh, wait, I gotta adjust my glass eye.....OK.....better now.     For any breaking news, please turn to our new flagship station, ESPN-FAVRE, for all the latest news & worthless predictions.      I'm out of here to grab some grub with The Schwab now !"

1	I didn't read the whole thing but you put in effort so thumbs up for you.

0	Comparing the two is about as good of an idea as letting go of "arguably" the best QB to go with an untested QB. GB is screwed ... no thanks to that decision, and more importantly, Poor Play! Go Jets! .... No wait .... Go Favre! Forget the Jets!

0	(Edited by Big_Sur_Tahoe) Hope Rodgers doesn't go and break a finger. That would be so un- Favre! (i mean not playing with a broken finger of course!)
