This is kinda amusing. What if the Packers had given in to Bret Favre and allowed him to continue as their NO.1 QB in the 2008 season??

Can't any of you not understand issues between Ted Thompson and Brett Favre? Are they much alike and both such warm and down to earth people? These two men couldn't be more unalike.Quote:

I look at the hard facts. The black and white of it. How close was the Packer GM to Brett Favre and the events leading up to Favre's trade to the New York Jets. Ted Thompson sent Mike McCarthy to do, essentially his job. I know the issues between Ted Thompson and Favre began long before that time. It's always been my perspective that that was a marriage that was never going to work out.
The real issue here now is the Green Bay Packers and no personality clash can exceed the great story of the Green Bay Packer history and future. This is what all Packer fans need to see and gravitate to. To withdraw from the smallness of this whole thing.
GO PACKERS !

PACKERS !
If he hadn't "retired" that March I think he would have been our starter if he beat out Rodgers in TC and that might not have been a sure thing.Quote:

This bears true for Favre, Rodgers, M3, TT and, most importantly, the fans. I won't lie to anyone, I was disgusted with Favre and reveled in his meltdown during the Minn/NO game, I thought it just desserts for Favre, the Vikings and their fans. But I've moved on, it sounds like AR has moved on and this suggests that Favre may be on that path as well.Quote:

Comment woodbuck27:
Then....Get that done ASAP.
We don't want Favre tossing strikes to Greg Jennings and carrying him on his shoulders next season. Rumours are circulating that Brett Favre is getting that 'Old Time Feeling' after recent talks to Greg. Greg Jennings is causing more concerns than we realize.
How do we stop this happening in Minnesota Viking history?

GO PACK GO !
Favre is not replacing Ponder in MN. One is seriously gullible if one believes there's another Favre comeback in MN. The Vikes are fully committed to Ponder this coming season.
I believe that your correct.Quote:

Brett Favre is certainly one of the most entertaining players in NFL history. He came to play and do his very best to win. He never shirked his duties. He was fun to watch on the field and the sidelines.
We were very fortunate to see Brett Favre in a Green Bay Packer jersey. He was a big reason that we left the 'Dark Ages', 1970 -1992 behind.
Long live 'the by far positive memory' of Brett Favre.
The Green Bay Packers !
At this point I only dial into the thread to see who bumped it.
Those who follow the game will remember Brett Favre for his interceptions and inability to retire properly.
Ehh, it's news about a packer great. I enjoy reading about him, I figure some other people do as well. I also really like the idea of keeping it all in one place. Finally, I wouldn't mind seeing this sucker get to 10k.Quote:
