Favre's pep-talk... - Jets Insider.com Forums

S.I. Patsfan · 12-28-2008, 11:04 PM

I was watching with my father-in-law tonight - he's a big jet fan, so it was nice we could actually root for the same team for once - and we both noticed Favre's mini-speech to his teammates right before the game.

Did anyone else think it was weirdly low-key? It was very sort of...well, do what we can and it'll be whatever it'll be. I think he was going for a "let's take care of what WE can take care of," but we felt it didn't come off that way.

Thoughts?

Not that they are geniuses or anything, but the 3 guys on NFL network were chuckling derisively at Favre's "pep talk." It was pretty bad.
