As to this rumor, if we do sign Favre, I'll tattoo "I heart PFT" on my right arm.
Disagree, totally.

What we do HERE in this forum is water cooler talk. And trust me, this site is a more reliable news source than PFT will ever be.

And what you said is the difference between a reliable source and an unreliable source. Professional writers will check, double check and triple check thier sources to ensure all credibility prior to running a story. Shoot even I will check multiple news sources on a story before referencing it in a post. Not PFT though.

If PFT is just a bunch of guys doing "water cooler" talk as you say with no sources or checking sources, than it is no better than a tabloid "making up" outlandish stories and publishing them.
