Not to mention, are refs allowed to help up players?

I saw that. Earlier in the game, I also saw a ref help Favre straighten out his uniform when his shoulder pad was sticking out. I had never seen a ref do that before either. It was a real love-fest out there.

love fest on the field AND (as usual) from gruden & jaws in the booth! they need to come up with some new material because the "wiley veteran", "the legend", the "master" favre crap got REAL old!!!

Normally, I'm not too bothered about them talking about Favre, and I wasn't that bothered this time, but Gruden is really taking it to extremes. Even when the Vikes where on defense, he was mostly talking about Favre.

As for the non-call. Rules should be rules, but I'm pretty sure that this gets missed more often. No one reall cares when QBs spike the ball. Just because it's Brett, though, everyone wants to make a big deal out of this, it seems.

They always love-fest on Favre, during Favre games or not. It comes with the territory. Deal with it or hit the mute.

As far as the 'penality'.. Non-calls happen all the time during games. They pretty much balance each-other out.

I've seen refs do this stuff. And not always to Brett, either. BTW, refs aren't robots. Just to let you know.

I think it's pretty safe to say that the head official doesn't stand next to every QB and pick him up off the ground every time he goes down. It's funny more than anything.

No, I'm not kidding. I can't recall ever seeing that. It seems like something I would've remembered had I seen it.

How often do you see this happen?

I see it RARELY here or there, but usually there are no other players around and he is asking for help to the official. What I saw is Brett, with a viking already helping, getting helped up by an official.

There were only 2 QBs I remember who played in their 40s - George Blanda and Vinny Greenballs. I'm too young to remember Blanda. You'd have to ask Vinny if a ref ever helped him up.

If I were a ref and there was a player on the ground with more gray hair than I've got, I'd help him up too.

What I saw in the replay (when Brett spiked it) was the ref blowing the whistle behind him and then he spiked it. then the ref tried to suddenly close his eyes so he didn't see the spike.

We just have to get used to it. There will never be a penalty called on Brett Favre.

Yes......it's obvious "he" gets special privilidges.
I think i saw the one ref reach down Brett's pants, and straighten out his jock for him.

lol

The hate on the treatment of Favre is hilarious. You guys.. Favre getting this 'special' treatment has been pretty much the same since his Super Bowl/MVP years with your team.

Now the shoe's on the other foot, you see.

As far as how many times I've seen a ref help up a player.. I can honestly say about a handful of times (not including last night, because I missed all but maybe a quarter, due to work).

Martha Careful (20h) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.

wpr (16-Dec) : Pack fans represent. I pointed it out early in the game to my wife. Announcers said Packers travel well.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : That was crazy to hear go pack go in Seattle of all plays. That 12 man thing an all

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, good man!

jdlax (16-Dec) : Mucky, there were too many of us there to credit any single one but for sure i was 60% responsible.
