Unfortunately, Packers No Longer Care About Brett Favre


Unfortunately, Packers No Longer Care About Brett Favre

That title for the LINK above ... is hardly the TRUTH. Notice the date and even then Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy's hopes to have Brett Favre back in the fold:

"Packers president Mark Murphy telling the national and international media the other day that he "envisions" Favre with a role in the organization at some point..."


" They forced Favre to retire ... or else.

This is so Packer Nation-like.

They love them, then they hate them, and then they worship them forever, but only after a passage of time.

They did as much with Curly Lambeau, and he founded the franchise while excelling all the way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a player and as a coach for the Packers. The thing is, Lambeau feuded with the Packers board of directors during the early 1950s, and he was ostracized from the franchise until the combination of time, his death and future Green Bay historians led Packers officials to naming the stadium after him in the mid-1960s.

Ever hear of Vince Lombardi? From the late 1950s through most of the 1960s, he WAS the Packers while grabbing five world championships, including victories in the first two Super Bowls.

After Lombardi retired as coach, he became the Packers' general manager for a year, but then he did the unthinkable. He left to take over the Washington Redskins. He was considered a traitor in Wisconsin. He eventually died at 57 in 1970 of cancer, and that's when all was forgiven throughout the Frozen Tundra.

He became a Packer legend again.

Favre will, too, but not for a while. " Fr. LINK
