Bullshit. You’d rather have a W than an L.

Of course, I’d prefer a win. But I would much rather win with the likes of Favre than the likes of Moss. And yourself??

I’ll take Moss over Favre. I’d rather not have to rely on a drug addict. Daunte’s better than Favre anyway.

And Moss who smoked marijuana at Florida State and was kicked off the team, then spent three months in jail for violating his probation? Yes, yes, it’s just marijuana, but if you’re going to harp on Favre’s past, don’t forget about Moss’.

Relaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax. Lighten up. It’s just a game.

I’d much rather keep my moral indignation for things like rape and murder. I’ve seen annoying celebrations by “the bad guys,” and I’ve always shrugged it off. If we didn’t let the bad guys score, they wouldn’t celebrate.

If you mean your question as strick player-player comparisons, I would take 1996 Brett Favre over Randy Moss, but Randy Moss over 2004 Brett Favre. Both are elite players, no doubt about it.
