Diary of a Madman---a collection of KANSAS' rants

[dwt1]

all this hype about the great throw favre made, and nobody has said a fucking word about the great catch the receiver made.

dwt, i'll bet that you couldn't even tell me what that receivers name is...don't go looking, just man up and admit you don't know his name and you have a favre man crush

Gonz beat me too it, and you're correct it was a great catch but even you have to realize the catch isn't made if that pass wasn't perfect, that pass was thorn to the only spot the reciever could make the catch. I'm sure it's on u-tube, go back and take a look at it, there where two defenders that could have made a play on the ball if it wasn't thrown were it was thrown.

[dwt1]

Farve said he did not even know there was a WR there, he just threw the ball.......

Joey did the same thing, he just was not as lucky.

Wow, he's humble too

Did somebody say Penis?

[Newbomb Turk]

awe shucks, I'd play the game for free (er $12 million a year) so javon walker should get his ass to camp and help me add to my legacy.......

brett favre makes a good pass and all you guys get your panties wet about it, yet act like he ONLY makes perfect passes. I've seen the guy pass the ball behind a receiver so many times and seen the same receiver reach back and make a great catch, and who gets all the fucking credit? you guessed it... brett douche bag, fuckface, cunt favre.

I've seen games where the guy will make a less-than-accurate throw, the receiver makes a spectacular catch, and the announcers same something to the tune of "THERE ISN'T A QUARTERBACK IN THIS LEAGUE THAT WILL MAKE THAT THROW BETTER THAN BRETT FAVRE" (An actual quote from john madden about a pass to donald driver on a slant where the ball was thrown behind him)

There isn't a quarterback in the NFL that gets that much credit for shit he doesn't even do. Then favre pulls a nicely placed throw out of his ass and that's supposed to PROVE that he's worthy of all the fucking hype? Get off my balls

And those would be fucking rare, you don't win 172 games in the NFL by routinely trowing behind your receiver. He deserves the credit for the things he doesn't do because of the things he does do......and #1 on that chart he makes a lot of people a lot of fucking money. No have no balls to get off of.

so favre gets sole credit for those wins?

football is a team sport. if he didn't have a good running game with decent receivers, he would have the nfl record for most INTs in addition to the record for most TDs...oh wait, he does.

let's not forget that, despite common perception, brett favre does not have an effect on the performance of his defensive teammates.

I'm building a team from scratch and can take any QB in nfl history, favre wouldn't even be on my practice squad...I don't get why you assholes think he's the best thing since pants with pockets. You wanna throw out some stats? How about career passer rating? I think that would be a fair assessment of his career vs. every QB to play the game...

the guy isn't even in the top 10 of all time QBs tell me why he gets consideration for being the greatest of all time?

[dwt1]

so favre gets sole credit for those wins?

he is the QB of record for 172 wins, would it be nice if the Lions had a QB who was the QB of record for 172 wins?

football is a team sport. if he didn't have a good running game with decent receivers, he would have the nfl record for most INTs in addition to the record for most TDs...oh wait, he does.

and the great RB was??? And it doesn't matter if you have a great WR if the QB does't get the ball there. Also you can't lead the NFL in INTs if you aren't winning games, if you aren't winning fames they will sit your ass and you'll never sniff that record. Oh btw another NFL record he owns, 4th quarter game winning drives.

let's not forget that, despite common perception, brett favre does not have an effect on the performance of his defensive teammates.

well not exactly true, by sustaining drives he keeps the defense off the field and keeps them rested.

I'm building a team from scratch and can take any QB in nfl history, favre wouldn't even be on my practice squad...I don't get why you assholes think he's the best thing since pants with pockets. You wanna throw out some stats? How about career passer rating? I think that would be a fair assessment of his career vs. every QB to play the game...

oh no, noy stats, oh my gawd you got me there, you pulled that stat card. Dude there is only one stat that matters, 172 WINS. You instead of trying to tear somebody down for receiving special handling because he's a winner why don't you aspire for the lions to have such a QB who receives special handling because he's a winner

[Newbomb Turk]

I look at his unwillingness to sit down for a few weeks with a thumb that looked like a marshmellow, instead trotting out there without hte ability to throw, losing games to keep his record streak in tact.


clearly hurting his team for his glory.

[Kansas]

Yep, One fella came close to perfecting the QB position. Went by the name of Brett. Eight feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel: cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red, like the fires of Hell.

Called himself a gunslinger. Could throw a football into a hurricane and out the other side without so much as a wobble. I hear tell that his passes could break the sound barrier. People nearby couldn't hear nothin' for three days afterwards. Had to wear earmuffs and wedges of cheese on their heads to lessen the blow of the sonic booms.

One crisp Fall afternoon, Brett threw a ball so hard that the fella who caught it flew in the air for near on 70 yards just from the force of it. Before he landed on the ground, Brett ran down the field into the endzone and caught the fella in his own arms for a touchdown.

Tough don't even begin to describe Brett. Needed a diamond-tipped saw blade just to shave his beard. When he walked thru fog, the static generated by his beard stubble would cause lightnin' storms for miles around. I hear tell the army collected the dead skin cells he sloughed off to use as tank armor.

Played a thousand football games in a row, Brett did, and nary even got a hangnail. One summer day he had shoulder surgery (with no anesthesia), but not because he got hurt. It was an attempt to make his arm less powerful to make it more fair for the other fellas he was playin' against. Didn't help though. That's like removin' a grain of gunpowder from a stick of dynamite. He only got better. Legend has it that he was so good with his accuracy and touch that he could throw a newborn baby right back into the womb without touchin' the sides.

Nope, we'll never see another one like him.

you mean after he broke his thumb in game on 19 october 2003? They went 7-2 after that, they where 3-4 before marshmellow thumb, 7-2 after and made the playoffs, yeah, I'll take my QB hurting my time like every time.

[DanO]

LOL Kansas.

GO LIONS "09" !!!!!!!!!

Okay what about that time he separated his shoulder and single-handedly took his team out of the play-offs?

[Kansas]

What about the time he threw the space shuttle into orbit to save NASA from spending money on rocket fuel?

[YT]

LOL Kansas!
