http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/317115-brett-farve-says-anonymous-was-actually-the-distant-one ESPN ran a story yesterday saying that an Anonymous Jets player said that Brett Favre was distant from the rest of the team and spent most of his time in a private office alone. Anonymous went on to say that Favre should have been benched during his 3 interception performance in week 16, and the team can't be all about one person. The news goes to further illustrate just how fast things went from good to sour in New York after the team started the year 8-3. But Favre is not taking the news lying down, and in a press conference today disputed these allegations, saying that Anonymous was actually the one who was distant from the team, and that people barely even knew who he was. "I don't even remember playing with this guy," said Favre. "I remember Laveranues Coles, Thomas Jones, but I can't remember Anonymous even showing up for team meetings. If you want to look at someone to blame for our failures down the stretch, you can look right to him. I threw 20 incompletions in that last game, but at least 15 of those were to Anonymous, and he didn't come down with a single one. It's like he wasn't even out there on the field." Indeed, other players are struggling to remember their teammate at all. "Anonymous...It's not ringing a bell," said Nick Mangold. "Is he french or something?" Analysts are jumping all over the latest comments from Anonymous. "This guy is just a locker room cancer," said ESPN's Trey Wingo. "People really get on Terrell Owens and Randy Moss for things they say after tough losses, but it's actually Anonymous who is the worst. Every time you hear really damaging stuff, it's from this guy. At least they contribute on the field. Anonymous has never even made a pro bowl. The Jets need to cut ties with him during the offseason and move on."
It is going to be tough to cut him, as Anonymous seems to have played every position on the field at one point or another this year.
One of the most intelligent things I've heard Favre ever say. Funny how stories quickly change in this lovable media. One minute, Favre and Barton are the clowns of the locker room, or Favre is blowing bullhorns while Coles is getting media grilled by his locker. Next, Favre is holed up in some private inner sanctum. Don't buy any of it.
Will this coward just come out and say his name, maybe it's because Favre is right, and he's gonna get heat if people find out who he is because he didn't do anything for the team
