"Favre sees public evidence against Saints as ‘just hearsay’"

So far, the NFL has put forth a ledger of questionable origin and a signed affidavit from former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams -- which Williams signed in mid-September, six months after Goodell issued all the well-known penalties to Saints general manager Mickey Loomis, head coach Sean Payton, defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, defensive assistant Joe Vitt, and players Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith, Scott Fujita, and Anthony Hargrove.

People have started to wonder -- what do you really have against these guys, Rog?

In a recent interview with ESPN's Mike Tirico, Favre said that the evidence against the Saints looks as fishy to him as it does to everyone else outside the purview of the NFL's propaganda train. When Tirico asked Favre what he thought of the ruling that set aside the suspensions against the players, Favre gave a surprising answer.

"In all honesty, I'm pretty indifferent. But I'd have to say when they were allowed to play, I thought that was the right move, because I don't see enough evidence. I don't think 'Some guy said that this went on' is enough evidence. I don't know Jonathan all that well. I think he's a great player. Seems like a great leader. Seems like the guys who have played with him have a lot of respect for him, and Scott Fujita. The other guys, I really don't know. I felt like that's the right thing to do. Otherwise, I think it's just hearsay."
