Thomas Jones is now backing off his comments on ESPN First take. He said he answered questions but it wasn't about Brett it was about the team and the reporters chopped it up to make it look bad. So is it possible the media stirring up stuff or is Jones backing away from what he said.

Well, it's possible he was misquoted. Thats happened often enough.
It's also possible that Jones was taken to the "woodshed" by Jets management for his comments, so now he has to retreat or be in bigger trouble.

As far as Favre's teammates when he was here, Favre was a long time player here, and had earned "seniority" on the team. Allowing him to get away with stuff other players might not get away with.
Of course, unless you actually HEAR the quotes, it's hard to say if it was all in context or not. I have read what he said, and if what was written is true, there are obviously some fence mending to be done if Favre wants to still play.

I didn't really root for the Jets this year, but I did pull for Brett to do good and pad his stats so far that that little pissant Peyton Manning can't ever reach them. :)

Ditto.

But I really was hoping for Brett to get us that 2nd round pick. For some reason, Ted Thompson seems to draft best in the 2nd round.

I'd be curious to see a complete interview transcript.

From what I've seen, interviewees are rarely "misquoted" technically -- they're just quoted incompletely, thus leaving the reader to draw his own faulty conclusions.

Well, combined with that Atlas guy's comments, sounds like it just might be true.
