Favre to the Texans?

I notice Mussop had nothing to say.

Luckily a few of Favre's teammates did. Maybe we can take theirs as the final word for whether Favre would have been a good pick-up for us this year.

From Thomas Jones - "The other day, the three interceptions really hurt us. I mean, that's just reality," Jones told the radio station. "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. 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]."

A veteran Jets player, quoted anonymously by Newsday, described Favre as a "distant" teammate who, when at the Jets' practice facility, spent his down time away from teammates in an office specially designated for him. "There was a lot of resentment in the room about him. He never socialized with us, never went to dinner with anyone."


Sounds like our front office was smart to stay well away from Favre, especially if they wanted to keep their job.
