Farve's agent Bus Cook sounds off

Favre's agent Bus Cook recently went off to a reporter for Men's Journal magazine when he found out that Favre had told ESPN's Ed Werder that he was still having trouble with his ankle from hits he took in the NFL championship game. Cook:

"I know you're media, but do you know who I hate? The g**damn media! You watch ESPN this morning? Brett talked to g**damned Ed Werder at ESPN, says he needs ankle surgery. Now why did he do that? I've got Childress calling. I've got reporters calling all damn morning. G**dammit, why does he have to be such a g**damned drama queen? Play, don't play, g**damn, people are getting sick of it. I'm getting sick of it! Why does he have to talk to these people? What good does it do? Ed Werder at ESPN! What's he ever done for anybody other than say, ‘Look, look, Mommy, I got this first, ain't I special?' You got problems with surgery, talk to your wife. Why talk to g**damned Ed Werder?"

Oh, dear. The best part of the story was that the reporter was there for Favre's arrival at Cook's office after the outburst.

"Jesus, Brett. You never learn. You guys go talk. I've got g**damn phone calls to make." He pokes a finger at Brett. "Thanks to you."

Of course, Favre was his usual disingenuous self.

"I guess I screwed up. I didn't think it was a big deal. I just told him that I might need surgery. [Werder] made it into a big thing."

apparently this was a bit tongue in cheek. but we all know everything he said was true...

    • If you really believe that, then there is nothing else for me to say.
    • What?!?!?! Yes it absolutely is, you're never going to get to contention if you never improve. Winning 5-6 games a year because the other team was worse (not because you were better) does you no good in becoming a contending team, but improving as a coaching staff and as players 100% helps move the needle towards reaching a contending status. I used this example all offseason, but just look back at the Lions like 5 years ago.  They kept losing, but were showing improvement in doing so, they went from I think (not looking it up) a 3 win team, to a 6 or 7 win team, to playing in the NFC Championship game in a span of 3 years. They did it because in those 3 and 6/7 win seasons, they were showing improvement even in their losses, they weren't squeaking by in their wins while still looking terrible in key areas of the game. THAT is what I'm asking for and why I'd rather see improvement over ugly wins, they are the literal example of what I'm looking for and now they're a true SB contender after picking 2nd in the 2022 draft.
