  (10:00 AM)

Goooooooooooood morning!

Scott (Brewtown)

Good Morning! Satan has officially arrived in Minnesota. I will be watching intently on Oct 5th and Nov 1st, hoping to see him get squashed like a bootheel on a tater bug.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Good morning Buzzster.

leeles333 (pgh.pa)

On brett f. I look at Y.A.Tittle last photo on his knee head down.His last year was 10 td 27 int.

Marc (Big D)

This is probably going to be the worst MB ever. Darn you, Favre.

Rich (Douglas AK)

If I'm not on time I've been teleported to Vikings camp.

Justin (Chicago)

Go figure

Buzzmaster

  (10:01 AM)

Totes magotes.

Rich (Douglas AK)

The Raiders are having a "Bloodsport" tourney to see who the best coach is right now. Cable is playing the role of Tanaka.

Bob (Lowell)

Morning Buzz and morning buzz.

Rich (Douglas AK)

Mike Vick is really happy Favre is hogging the spotlight right now.

Buzzmaster

  (10:02 AM)

Clay (Charlotte) is REALLY unhappy about Favre.

Smoltz (St. Louis)

It might take awhile to get this Red Sox smell off of me.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

At last night's Tigers game at Comerica Park, my 3 year old son flirted with and got a kiss from an attractive blonde in the row in front of us. I was quite impressed.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Good morning. I must say that the peach cobbler was delicious.

Dan (Buffalo, NY)

I. Hate. Brett. FavrESPNNEWS.

Trevor (Texas)

Good morning fellow SNers.

Matt (IN)

Good Favring everyone.

RAY GORDON REID ( WAYCROSS GA31501 )

MY COMMENT AT 10.55 SAME CHAT TIME SAME NETWORK TOMORROW AUGUST 8/20 2009 BUZZ

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Gee I wish we had something to chat about today. How is everyone in Buzz Nation on a fine Wednesday morning?

Trevor (Texas)

All I'm going to say is I am pumped that Favre is playing again. To all the haters...suck it.

Tom's Wife (West Bloomfield)

That was outstanding work!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

*puts on the helmet* Alright, folks get it all out of your system.

Matt (South Bend, IN)

Perfect way for Minnesota to throw away $25 mil Buzz...sorry but you won't get to approve this deal *wields VOID stamp*

Clay (Charlotte)

Oh, I found out yesterday I'm going to be an uncle, I don't like my sister-in-law, so let's hope for the majority of my brother's genes.

Unrulely Crowd (SN)

We want the show! We want the show! We want the show!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

If we had a professional football team in Detroit, I might care about Favre being back in the NFC North.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Yeah Clay was a little harsh yesterday, wasn't he Buzz?

Buzzmaster

  (10:05 AM)

I guess, but I was talking about this morning and the NSFW tirade that I can't post.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I documented my hatred for Brett on the MB page on Facebook. No need to add anymore besides the fact that I will not be sucked in by Brett's sappy story about his daughter.

Bob (Lowell)

Careful Tom. Some guy got arrested last week for using his son to help him pick up women.

Michael Jordan (Bristol)

I am making my return as a wide receiver for the Vikings.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Sick of Brett Favre...sick sick sick...I'm done.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Loved Denis Leary on this mornings Mike

Greg (Ellicott City)

What are the odds that Tom* no longer has a job?

Jack (NB Canada)

Lunch - some Farve beans and Chianti

Dan (Buffalo, NY)

Insider Chat Buzz? Pure Pulse.

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

Not my decision.

T-Jax (Minn)

Anybody know the phone number to the 49ers home office.I would like to submit a job application.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

According to the Punet square, I think you are going to have a pretty hard time getting more than half of your genes in a kid...

Matt (South Bend, IN)

Lemme guess Brock Lesnar gives it another for the Vikes now too?

The Suits (Bristol)

NSFW? That's you, Buzz

Jack (NB Canada)

Had 1st pick in my fantasy draft fuzz, took Peterson then Slaton and CJ.

Buzzmaster

  (10:07 AM)

Shouldn't you be doing a CFL draft instead?

Brian (Louisville)

As a fan of the Titans I guess i should expect Favre to be our starting qb in about 2018.

Suits (Bristol)

After he gets us coffee we will make him set up an insider chat. MUAHAHAHAHAHA.

Drew (Buffalo)

Cris Collinsworth?! Love it.

daniel (wi)

brett is getting so much disrepect it is not funny he old all major records for quarterback in nfl. if he is an attention whore where are all the commericals at tv apperances like jordan or charles barkley

Brian (Madison, WI)

Where's Anthony from NY? I had to skip the afternoon chat yesterday because I was too fired up about Favre and might have let a curse word slip into the chat and we don't want Buzz fired. But I still saw him calling out the regulars including myself twice.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Stupid ampersand. When will I learn? Answer = never. I particularly loved Denis Leary railing against more Favre talk from Greenberg. Nice job.

Bob (Lowell)

I still think Clinton should have his head laminated so he won't have to keep putting on his helmet.

Jack (NB Canada)

CFL starts on Canada Day, that draft was in June.

Matt (South Bend, IN)

CFL Season started over a month ago too late Buzz

Marc (Big D)

I don't know if I had some bad cereal this morning or what, but I think there are crickets in the ceiling.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Fact: Cris Collinsworth was on the cover of Sports Illustrated the week I was born.

Buzzmaster

  (10:09 AM)

I wonder how far back on former Bengal Cris Collinsworth's family tree that is.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I like how Denis Leary rationalizes a big year for Brady. His wife is due in mid December, so he won't be able to have sex from the 2nd week of the season on. Therefore, an angry Tom Brady will destroy the NFL.

Clay (Charlotte)

Hey my boss is up your way today Buzz, will you ask him if I can get a raise?

JB (TX)

You know what the best part of this whole Favre thing is? That we get to do it all over again next offseason! I can't wait!!

Nate (Madison)

Steven Colbert: Brett Favre has the NFL's all time record of most incomplete retirements.

Cubs Nation (Chicago)

PLAYOFFS??? PLAYOFFS???? YOU WANNA ASK ME ABOUT PLAYOFFS??????

Awayne (INDY)

Childress drives Favre to practice,guess that lets everyone know who really is in charge there.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

*golf clap* Well played, dirty tyrant. Well played.

Jason (Ellicott City)

Over/under Buzz's weight 270

Dave (vt)

Marc poured bourbon on his cherrios this morning.

Carl (NJ)

One thing that annoys me is the term R.B.I.'s...thats like saying Run Batted Ins...shouldnt it be R.B.I. or just R.'sB.I.??

Brian (Madison, WI)

I pulled a Nate and Brian last night.

Brian (Louisville)

Now that Favre's back, I guess Madden will unretire very shortly.

Jonathan (Madtown)

Best part about this Brent Favre issues is everyone that had stood up to him over Ted Thompson now has to say sorry to Ted.

Marc (Big D)

I think Clinton was referring to 19th century nobleman Sir Cris Collinsworth.

Danny (Boston)

I can't help but laugh when people like Chris Carter and Mark Schlereth go off about those poor 2 quarterbacks in Minny who were "lied to" by the coaches about their roles on the team. Can someone explain to me what is SO horrible about making millions of dollars to NOT play football?

Buzzmaster

  (10:12 AM)

Because you're getting paid those millions of dollars to play and compete. And now the team has taken that chance away from you.

tom* (parkville, md)

I remain employed. Very odd meeting. I won the point almost immediately, but the boss is claiming a major incident never happened. One of us is having major brain problems.

Hack Comedians (Everywhere)

Yeah and PIN number and ATM machine, too! High five, Carl!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Carl: I care less about the mispronunciation of baseball stats than I care about Favre. And that's saying a LOT.

Steve (NJ)

Went to Allentown, PA's Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom yesterday; good times, good water slides. Talon was not running. BOOOOO.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

A few more weeks until PUNT-A-THON 2009 and JOE FLACCO INTs!!!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Apparently, Jonathan is pulling a Nate and Brian right now. There is no "best thing" about this Favre nonsense.

Carl (NJ)

Speaking of Madden...sickeningly, I havent played it yet, but did they implement the Wildcat yet? If not, thats next.

Marc (Charlotte)

But you are Brian, so it is rather expected.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

They did implement, hard as heck to execute properly.

Marc (Big D)

I know Twitter is stupid, but I was very amused that a trending topic for most of yesterday was "Farve". Oh general American public, you slay me.

Danny (Boston)

I can't feel too bad for those guys. I mean, really.

Buzzmaster

  (10:15 AM)

Well, how would you like it if your boss kept telling you that you were the best guy for your job, but you kept hearing rumors that he was having meetings with someone else who does your job. But every time you asked him, he said don't worry, you are his guy. Then one day, BAM!, you come to work and the new guy is there doing your job.

The Suits (Bristol)

We've never lost a point. And Buzz has major brain problems.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Carl, if that's your major concern in life, then you're doing a lot better than 99.99% of people.

Steve (NJ)

Buzz, let's be honest, when you're option is either Sage Rosenfels or Tavaris Jackson, you're really just telling the fans there's going to be a lot of punting.

Theo Ratliff's now expired contract (Recycling Bin)

Yeah, getting paid millions to not even show up to compete is the way to go.

Troy (Pittsburgh)

You guys can talk about Brett Favre every day 'til February. It doesn't change the fact that the Steelers will beat a Favre-less team for their seventh ring this year.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

If I played football well enough to be on an NFL team, I'd damn sure want to play on Sundays. There is something to be said for the love of the game, even above and beyond all the millions, after all.

Ted Thompson (Green Bay)

We saw this coming last summer.

Jeff in St. Louis (NascarNation)

Is it true that Brett Favre is attempting to have the word "retire" removed from the English Dictionary?

Marc (Charlotte)

Are we really still talking Favre?

Dan (Buffalo, NY)

But I would still have my job Buzz. And I would still be making my $530,000. So I think I'd be ok with it.

Dave (vt)

He's doing my job and im still getting paid? can you say jackpot.

Buzzmaster

  (10:18 AM)

Really? I think people would still be upset.

JB (TX)

Another key point, they can't impress anyone from the bench and set themselves up to make future millions on top of the ones they've already earned.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Troy, stupid smack talk is that way --->

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Can't we just change the subject?

Clay (Charlotte)

Actually, the person who has handled this the best is Aaron Rodgers. When he was asked his reaction he said, I don't have one, it has nothing to do with me or the Packers. That's class.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Favre coming back has more to do with getting back at the Packers than wanting to compete. It's kind of psychotic...

Trevor (Texas)

Buzz, this is the NFL. Teams are always looking to better themselves no matter who they have at positions. No matter what a coach tells you, he's always looking for a better player.

Jimbo (Brooklyn)

Big winners are the NYJ, not only do they get rid of Favre, they don't have to give the 3 first round picks to GB they would have had to give had they traded him to MINN.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Think of it as getting passed over for a promotion.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I feel worse for Rosenfels than Jackson though. The Vikes traded to bring him in and he had to figure he was going to be the starter. Jackson had to know his days as starting QB in Minnesota were numbered.

Scott (Packer Land)

Don't think Buzz. You're not smart enough.

Drew (Buffalo)

Can we all agree that every possible thing to say about Favre has already been said? Let's move on.

Steve (NJ)

That will be the last time I see 'big winners' and 'NYJ' in the same sentence this season/decade/lifetime. (sigh)

Carl (NJ)

Uhh, Rosenfels signed a 2 year, 9 million dollar extension this year...Im sure him starting for 2 years would onle decrease his next contracts value.

Joey (Rutland VT)

All Of u haters know this Brett Favre has earned the right to b in the NFL. Vikes in will beat the mcVick-eagles in nfc championship game but the pats will get revenge on favre in sb

Marc (Big D)

Speaking of Favre, ONB?

Buzzmaster

  (10:21 AM)

Let's do it......

Brett Favre (Minnesota)

What upppp Buzz! Get your #4 purple jersey now. XOXO

K.C. (Huntington , WV)

I really enjoy the show. I like the fact you you all seem to share the amount of time between most of the sports and not spend half of the show concentrating on one particular event or the one person in the spotlight . Keep up the good work.

Cody Marcus (Herriman, Utah)

When it comes down to playoff time for baseball, who do you think has the strongest roster?

chaz (sa tx)

does anyone know if those pedi-paws work? tired of paying 30 bucks per dog to have nails cut..

Seth McCartney (Troup,TX)

Lets take a break from all the Favre and Vick talk for just a sec. and lets talk about someone that we dont hear about. His name Josh Johnson QB Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This kid can play and in my opinion is better then ant QB the Bucs have. Whats your opinion?

Frankie (wv)

is pat white a good QB

Roc C. (Washington St.)

Brett seriously needs to take a big step back and litteraly punch his own face. Back off Brett, your Reputation is dead and in week 8 dont be surprised if the fans rush you out of the stadium. Good luck you jerk.

Doc (Chuluota, FL)

Schlereth, you are foolish, unrealistic and out of touch. The NFL is the ultimate sports business. ...and you wouldn't pick up Favre if you had the chance? You are inhaling.

Dano (Minneapolis)

I"ll be honest, everybody that loves football new that Brett Favre was gonna come back, we just did not know when. I was not shocked at all.

Jose R. Carlo (Miami Beach, FL)

I never liked, but always respected Favre. I even liked him a little after There's Something about Mary. But, now, you can't even respect the guy. Fans in Green Bay must be sick to their stomachs. All those years of loyalty and support, and now he goes to play for their direct rivals. The name Benedict Arnold comes to mind...

ruckus (az)

Overnight Bin? I thought this was the trash bin. My mistake, sorry 'bout that.

Buzzmaster

  (10:21 AM)

And that's it.....

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Declaw your animal.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Actually Rosenfels now just has to sit out the rest of his contract, and he'll get another shot somewhere. If he had sucked on the field for the Vikings, no way that he'd get another contract.

Trevor (Texas)

I watched Rosenfels fumble away a few victories for Houston...he's a backup QB at best. That's a fact.

Justin (ST Paul)

Buzz, this is the NFL why should the VIkes just settle for two back-ups when they can have one of the best of all time.

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

Because one of the best of all-time played very average down the stretch last year, basically taking the Jets out of the playoffs all by himself.

Clay (Charlotte)

Okay so Jose just compared a football player to a national traitor? Don't get me wrong I hate what Farve is doing but that's going a little far.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

When did Ruckus move?

Carl (NJ)

ONB = meh

Rex Grossman (Houston-DL)

Brett Favre hasn't even played in a Super Bowl game this millenia. The guy sucks.

Justin (St Paul)

If I recall Favre led the NFL in passing through the first 8 weeks last year before his injury and had a passer rating of around 97. Yeah, he is washed up!

Jack (NB Canada)

Seth McCartney, the 6th Beatle

Marc (Big D)

I don't know what species Doc is, but I sure hope Schlereth is inhaling. Wouldn't he be dead otherwise?

Scott (Packer Land)

All by himself. You are ridiculous!!

Marty McFly (Hill Valley)

I just got back from the future, Brett Favre finally retires in 2019.

John David Booty (Minnesota)

Well, I guess there is always the CFL.

Trevor (Texas)

Let's see: a guy can still compete in the NFL, a team offers him $12 million a year, he'd be the best QB on their roster, probably a top 10 QB still...no brainer.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Yeah, when the guy who wants to see Favre lose a leg calls you out, that's pretty bad.

Nate (Madison)

Buzz, he played AVERAGE downt he stretch? I'm not sure I'd give him that much credit.

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

My bad.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Not true Buzz, the Jets run D sucked miserably after the Titans game IIRC. They went from 70 yards per game to about 100 . NT Kris Jenkins was going from a 4-3 in Carolina to a 3-4, he must have got worn down too. Brett Favre didn't help though.

Carl (NJ)

Yea, he stunk in the last 8 games, WITH A TORN BICEP!

Nate (Madison)

I can't wait until the first 4 INT game happens, just to see all of Viking nation moan.

Trevor (Texas)

Before Favre was got injured last year his stats were: 2400 yrds passing, 20 TDs, and 13 INTs in 11 games...a healthy Favre can still be a factor in the NFL.

Buzzmaster

  (10:25 AM)

But he's not healthy.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Kurt Warner is just a little bit younger than Brett Favre and got the Cardinals to the SB. Age matters, but not for experienced QBs.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

From what I'm hearing, Booty is staying in Minnesota and the Vikes are shopping Tavaris Jackson.

Clay (Charlotte)

Top 10? That's a bit of a stretch.

Justin (Chicago)

Actually, it was 4 weeks, other Justin. He threw only 10 tds and 18 ints in his final 12 games.

Nate (Madison)

I'd take Rodgers this season over Favre. Hands down, no questions or comments needed.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Whenever Favre unretires, I think of the next closest guy to his consecutive games played by a QB record: Peyton Manning. You know Brett hears Peyton's footsteps on all of his records.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Maybe they can trade Jackson for extra practice balls, or a sled?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Good thing I'm wearing the helmet, otherwise I would have given myself a concussion from banging my head on the desk so many times.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Nate: I promise in this forum that as a Vikes fan, I will not moan at Favre's first four INT game. It was the right move to make by the Vikes and honestly, Rosenfels and Jackson would both probably do the same thing at some point during the season.

Marc (Big D)

From what I hear, the Eagles are going to trade for Jackson and run the Super Wildcat.

Trevor (Texas)

He's not healthy? Not according to THE Dr. James Andrews. He's been playing with the tear in his rotator cuff for quite sometime says the good doctor.

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

Thank you for proving my point.

David (PA)

The difference is that Favre has the gunslinger mentality, and no longer has the physical tools to back it up. Warner is a more cerebrial QB.

Jonny Unitas (Very, very very old)

If age doesn't matter for experienced qbs, can I play?

Brian (Madison, WI)

I've watched in action for many years. The biggest winner out of this deal is liquor stores all over Minnesota. The guy is fun to watch, but you can only handle so many off the back foot INT's and throws into triple coverage.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Torn rotator cuff = not healthy.

Danny (Boston)

Vikes should easily win their first 3 games, and then it's going to Favre Mania. This has only just begun.

Mike (Ohio)

Take Rodgers over Favre, but the important thing is to take the Vikings over the Packers. Hands down, no questions or comments needed.

Marc (Big D)

I will admit that it will be fun to see a couple more backpedaling-off the back foot-off balance-right into a linebackers arms-return for a TD gems he is so famous for.

Brett Favre (Minnesota)

Hey guys, did you hear that I'm coming back?

Matt (IN)

Ok, don't blaspheme Johnny U. If you're gonna imposter the best ever, at least spell his name right.

JB (TX)

Unitas died in 2002.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Johnny Unitas died 7 years ago.

Carl (NJ)

Why all this Wildcat talk for the Eagles!? The Wildcat subs a RB for the QB, not a QB for a QB. Sheesh!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I'm even more tired of the term "gunslinger" than I am of Favre. During the entire Cutler fiasco, we kept hearing "gunslinger," too. Time to retire that word . . . and not Favre-retire it, either.

Buzzmaster

  (10:30 AM)

But why? Favre's just out there playing the game with a child-like enthusiasm.

Ryan (San Diego)

Cuz Vick is a good rb that can throw better than any rb in the league Carl

Clay (Charlotte)

Mike, that's a valid point, but it has nothing to do with Farve. They have the best RB in the game, a great set of WRs and an awesome defense. All Farve has to do is have a passer rating over 90 and it will be a good team.

Pete (NC)

To get us through the rest of the chat: Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre Favre. Now we can proceed.

HS Kids (Field in Mississippi)

*Sobbing*

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

The best way for Favre to get in the good graces of his teammates after all the offseason hoopla is to throw a boat party.

Marc (Charlotte)

As long as Brett can hand it off to Adrian Peterson, the Vikes should be fine. The more he throws the worse off they are going to be.

Nate (Madison)

Minnesota DOES NOT have great WR's.

John Elway (Denver,CO)

Favre is trying to go out on top like I did.Pure jealously!

tom* (parkville, md)

I will laugh when the Favre-led Vikings lose to my Lions in Week 2.

chaz (sa tx)

see how committed i am? i am joining the chat on my day off. pfft she says i have trouble with commitment.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Bernard Berrian isn't bad.

Awayne (INDY)

Min WR=Bears WR

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

A good qb makes decent receivers look good, besides Mark Duper name me some of Marino's receivers. While you are at it, name me some of John Elway's receivers. The Three Amigos?

Marc (Big D)

After some careful thought, I am convinced that Favre only decided to come back after creating himself on Madden and simulating the season hundreds of times to gauge the outcome.

Nate (Madison)

"isn't bad" and great are not the same thing.

Carl (NJ)

The Patriots are probably winning it all this year. And I say probably because with Brady they would have won it last year.

chaz (sa tx)

wow i see my dog moved without telling me, and he is witty.

Chris (MPLS)

MN has way better receivers than the Bears... Devin Hester isn't a good WR just ask Jay Cutler

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Playaction pass is going to kill teams, they will have 8 in the box to stop Peterson/Taylor. He will have single coverage all over the field.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Way to go out on a limb there, Carl.

Steve (NJ)

I say the Jets go 6-10, but look mediocre doing it.

Carl (NJ)

Hester = Berrian, just a little worse

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

chaz: That's because Ruckus is eating all the smart pills you've been throwing in the garbage. You might want to rethink that strategy.

Jim (DC)

In order to cope with a conversation that has absolutely nothing new in it, let's invent some new words. I will begin:FAVRETIREMENT

ted (cape cod)

Buzz,did you hear how Mel Kiper called Matt Barkley is a future number one draft pick?

Buzzmaster

  (10:36 AM)

Of course I did. He said it in his chat.

Jason (Ellicott City)

I hear Dan Marino is coming back.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

SN must be in chaos with that chat list. Do you have enough interns to handle that big of a chat list?

Ace Ventura (Miami)

He's only coming back if I'm able to rescue him again, that guy is always getting kidnapped

Matt (IN)

Buzz, you ever set up a chat for someone, then go get on another computer and send in questions?

Buzzmaster

  (10:38 AM)

Some times. There has been a time or two where I wanted to ask a guest my own question.

Tim (Saint Paul)

Can we talk about how Dreamy Joe Mauer is? I get lost in his eyes

Clay (Charlotte)

Buzz, technically you didn't hear Mel say it if it was in his chat...you saw him state that Barkley is a number one.

Buzzmaster

  (10:39 AM)

Technically I did hear him since I was on the phone with him.....Mr. Smarty Pants.

Awayne (INDY)

Saying the MN WR corps is better than CHI is like saying you got 15% on a test and your buddy got 13% so you are smartter.You are but is still shows you're both stupid.

Intern (Bristol)

Are you kidding me? There aren't even enough of us to take Buzz' lunch order.

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Buzz with the Zing!

tom* (parkville, md)

This day is already a mistake.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Buzz's questions = "You got any food in your pockets that I can eat?" You know, because Buzz is fat.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Yeah that's like saying I'm at a .04 and Nate's at a .03, still not impressive.

Hugh (Memphis)

"Buzzmaster... Do you like John Smoltz in St. Louis?"That could be the name of a song

Steve (NJ)

Apparently, MTV has a show called 'Bully Beatdown' where MMA fighters beat the snot out of neighborhood bullies. I may have a mancrush on this show.

Clay (Charlotte)

Hugh, no it couldn't.

Bob (Lowell)

But you said he said it in his chat. Not during a phone conversation you had with him and I don't think Mel would talk to you unless he wanted more coffee.

Nate (Madison)

I know this is a serious story but I think there should be a limit on how many times you use one word in a headline: "Female cop abducted by cop, cops say"

Hugh (Memphis)

"Meet me in St. Louis, Smoltz"

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Agreed. That's just really poor headline writing.

Jason (Ellicott City)

Is it ethical to mess with someone's facebook if they leave it up?

Buzzmaster

  (10:44 AM)

We don't do ethics here.

Brian (Milwaukee)

I could be the only one in Wisco that could care less about Favre going to Minnesota. I actually like it because I can't wait for Favre to eat crow when this ends up being disaster. He's almost 40, has a structurally bad arm, and he's a shell of his former self. The odds are completely against this being a successful move

JB (TX)

I saw one episode of Bully Beatdown. I'd think that would make it worse for the kid getting bullied. Now the bully gets to train for an MMA fight, making him that much more effective next time he takes the kid's lunch money.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My favorite actual headline that I've ever seen: from the Ann Arbor News several years ago, for an article about a study touting the benefits of affirmative action: "Affirmative Action Benefits Broad." That was truly fantastic.

Nate (Madison)

Jason, it's mandatory to mess with it if they left it open.

Steve (NJ)

Crow, surprisingly, can taste quite good. You just need to add hot sauce.

chaz (sa tx)

heck yea mess with it , their own fualt for leaving it up.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Jason: No. This has been short answers to stupid questions.

tom* (parkville, md)

No. Facebook is sacred. It would be like messing with the ten commandments if Moses got distracted.

Ryan (San Diego)

I think you satisfied the ethics requirement by asking someones opinion. Then you can do what you want after that

Brian (Madison, WI)

The proper protocol for someone leaving their Facebook open is that you immediately change their status to something embarassing.

Little Buzz (Bristol,CT)

Buzz won't let me bring Kimbo Slice to school.

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

Rumors are that Kimbo might be coming to Bristol in the near future.

Hugh (Memphis)

Since Urban Meyer got a new salary should he give 10% to Tim Tebow as it says to do in the Bible?

Bob (Lowell)

Would you prefer it said "police say female cop taken by fuzz"?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

What are you guys, 12?

chaz (sa tx)

here goes buzz with the false hopes again . this time its kimbo? how long did mb 2.0 take again?!?

Steve (NJ)

Gee, I can just see the trainwreck that would be a Kimbo Slice chat. I'm thinking that needs to be on the SN TV show.

Nate (Madison)

Like Jon from Madison left his open on Saturday and for some reason his status soon had him admitting he peed his pants.

Clay (Charlotte)

Anytime you can put the word Fuzz into a headline, I would encourage newspapers to do so.

Chris (Philly)

*waking up* Has the Favre talk finally finished?

tom* (parkville, md)

I think the Bible requires all of us to give Tim Tebow 10 %. That's $2,000 from everyone in this chat.

Scott (Brewtown)

Sorry Clinton, not everyone is 263 like you

Kimbo Slice (la)

Thats news TO ME.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Fact: Tim Tebow doesn't need money, he just creates anything that he needs.

Clay (Charlotte)

A coworker of mine is convinced that Kimbo is going to beat Brock Lester and will not listen to reason on the matter.

Buzzmaster

  (10:49 AM)

Kimbo probably could beat up Brock Lester. He sounds like one of our accountants here.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

So Kimbo will be Buzz's new intern then.

tom* (parkville, md)

Clinton, when you were 12, had numbers been invented?

chaz (sa tx)

i think u r overly stating the amount of ppl on this chat tom*

Steve (NJ)

Wait, Tebow is Chuck Norris? Or are we polytheists now?

JB (TX)

Speaking of Tebow and Coach 37F, Florida is a 73 pt favorite against Charleston Southern in their opener. Nice scheduling, SEC.

ELO (ORLANDO-HOME)

Good morning Buzz and SN, haven't been here in a long time and wanted to say hello. As you can see I am still unemployed, but can't wait for football season! Take care everyone.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Lunch: Garden salad with red wine vinaigrette, peach cobbler, unsweet tea.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Clinton remembers when he was XII. That's how they wrote numbers back then.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

Chaz, that is simply unacceptable. We don't chat in text-speak here. Hit the showers. Ruckus can stay though.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Who's Brock Lester?

Nat (Peach Pit)

Lunch: A mega burger

Matt (IN)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and H20. Again.

Nate (Madison)

Wisconsin can't talk, they scheduled Wofford.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Lunch: Beef rib roast stew made by . . . Campbell's. Hard to eat leftovers made by my wife when we had ballpark food for dinner last night.

Kent (Greenville)

In recent news, Lane Kiffin's wife Layla Kiffin is hot

David (PA)

Lunch: Turkey on a Kaiser. Lots of tomato.

Carl (NJ)

Lunch...Yacko Bell. Nacho Cheese

Awayne (INDY)

Lunch:Almond crusted Halibut with potato gratin(the boss is buying).

Steve (NJ)

Wisconsin can't talk because it's a geopolitical division of land.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Lunch: Wendy's grilled chicken sandwich, baked potato and an iced tea. Best fast food chicken not from KFC.

Trevor (Texas)

Lunch: Subway...

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

The Final Destination, and lets hope, it's the FINAL destination.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Jon Lester's brother.

Clay (Charlotte)

I meant Lesner..so...you...shut up Clinton.

ELO (ORLANDO-HOME)

Buzz, are you still choosing what to post or does it post automatically, love the new format.

Justin (St Paul)

Lunch: Pastrami, Turkey, Cream Cheese, on Tuscan Herb Bagel with Dill Pickle chips

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Purdue's got Toledo, at Oregon, Northern Illinois, and Notre Dame. 2-2, maybe?

Buzz (ESPN)

Lunch: everything

Clay (Charlotte)

Lunch: Food of some kind.

Trevor (Texas)

It's LESNAR not LESNER...

Steve (NJ)

How could a movie as bad as Final Destination get THREE sequels? Oh wait, they made Fast

ruckus (sa tx)

lunch:dont know yet chaz has not left the house yet.

Lindsay Lohan (LA)

Lunch: cocaine and a vodka

Brian (Madison, WI)

Lunch: Something greasy

Scott (Brewtown)

Somehow I think the FCC would be less than pleased if everything posted automatically

Drew (Buffalo)

Lunch: Wednsdays are free sandwich days at Arbys. buy a drink, get a free sandwich. Great deal.

chaz (sa tx)

wow really ruckus?

Dr. Evil (Secret Underground Lair)

You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a bone here!

joe (ny)

lunch: nothing

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

The FCC wouldn't care. They only regulate broadcast networks. Not cable, and not the internet.

Clay (Charlotte)

*mumbles* I'll throw you Farve's bone.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Great Brett Favre today, Favre nation. I look Favre to more Brett tomorrow in the Morning Favre. I'll see some of you in the SNTV Brett Favre chat at 4:00 PM. For the rest, stay safe, have some fun, and Brett Favre. Later!

Buzz (Bristo)

Lunch : Lucky 7 buffet,ALL of it.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Stay classy, people!

Drew (Buffalo)

This was the worst MB I've ever been involved in. Luckily typical MBers have the attention span of fish. So tomorrow should be back to nonsensical matters like usual

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Ah, the Internet: Turning people into toughguys since 1990.

Nate (Madison)

New news story in Madison. Man with a hammer robbed a porn store last night. Interesting. Brian, now where were you last night?

Buzzmaster

  (10:58 AM)

I think out of you three knuckleheads, Jon would be the one to question.

Ryan (San Diego)

Thank you ESPN for starting to show EPL and La Liga games live...much appreciated

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Good grief!

ELO (ORLANDO-HOME)

Spot on JB!

Bob (Lowell)

Have a nice day. The Favre talk was annoying but in the end, does it really matter who you have playing for you when Brad Childress is the head coach?

Clay (Charlotte)

Okay I'm done compaining about Farve, everybody have a great day. Be safe, we'll see ya tomorrow. Peace.

John Rush (Plano, TX)

Let's play a "What if" game....... What if Farve wins back-to-back super bowls for the Vikings? Will he go in the hall of fame as a Viking?

Scott (Brewtown)

Ok I'm done here.......no wait one more post!.......no I don't think I could do a whole hour, my body just can't take it......wait I'm better now, that I don't have to room in a dorm..

Brian (Madison, WI )

3 down, 2 to go.

charlie brown (tv)

get your own material Robbi

Brett (Mississippi)

I've decided to retire!

Brendan (Louisville, KY)

Wait, is this ending?

Matt (IN)

Goodbye everyone. Only you can prevent Favre chat.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Have a good day Buzz, remember to cover your mouth more often.

JB (TX)

For the record I was nowhere near Madison last nite.

Buzzmaster

  (11:01 AM)

OK. Thanks for stopping by everyone. Be sure to check our chat schedule for later today. There's a rumor that the TV show won't be on at our usual 4 p.m. ET time. If that's true, the chat will be in jeopardy. If we don't see you then, we'll be back tomorrow morning. Until then, stay classy SportsNation!

al (ca)

CAL (St. Paul, MN)

David (Banning)

Peace!
