LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Well, I think the point Woody was trying to make was that y'all in Wisconsin will be seeing lots of Jets games, thanks to the request by your local affiliates:

I'll take your pretty good and raise you 10....lol
At first I was really bewildered/hurt by all the Favre bashing I would read before/during/after the trade. To thousands of Packer fans the guy was gold for years and it seemed heartless and cold to me to see some turn their backs on him. Not those that were just ok with moving on and knew it had to happen at some point, but those that attack him relentlessly and try to pretend what he did for the Packer organization over the years meant nothing. Pointing out his flaws, rather than appreciating what he brought to Green Bay. I believe some of those are just plain old assholes and don't really "get it". I believe others, although they may not admit it, are just angry. They are angry that "our" Brett Favre is playing for another team. Nobody EVER thought that would happen. I suppose I could understand some anger if he was playing for an NFC team, but he's not. Some people really need to let it go....be happy reliving the Favre era and the fact he largely contributed to the Packers being a winning organization for years and years. Cherish the memories of games that other QB's would not have won. Hold close to your hearts him going out on that field after his Father passed and giving us the performance of a lifetime.
When I read posts from people downplaying what Brett Favre meant to the Green Bay Packers over the last 16 years and doing nothing but bashing him now, I can only think of one thing....you may be a football fan, but you are surely not a Green Bay Packer fan. To not appreciate everything that man gave to the Packers is just plain old idiotic. If some people post this type of thing in anger, maybe it's time to look inside...let go of the anger, it's not healthy!!
I will always be a Packer fan, but I will still always be a Brett Favre fan as well. I'm wishing the best for him with the Jets!!! Go Packers, Go Brett, Go Jets!!!!

No, Ted has no grey hair.............it's all white! And it would take alot more than just the hair for Ted to turn heads.
07, you have to remember that the type doing the bashing are on the far reaches of the lunatic fringe. The pitiful few that continue their rant over and over.Originally Posted by GrnBay007
As such, their views should not have any impact on you. Rather, they should be marginalized as the "black helicopter" crowd they belong to.
Frankly, I'm embarassed for them when I read some of the garbage they spew.
I think some of the unflattering comments put forward by "bashers" were unkind, made BF fans uncomfortable, but were true none-the-less.
What I have trouble deciphering in this whole discussion is:
1. When is it "respectful critique versus malicous bashing"?
2. When is it "healthy fanhood versus blind whorship"?
I've tried my best to be a healthy fan that will critique with respect and have managed to piss of both camps at different times and on a variety of discussions!
It's like I have the word antagonist tattooed on my forehead....
I thought you only liked women who swung both ways!Originally Posted by Bretsky

1. Respectful critique: "Favre handled this situation poorly, he's not bigger than the team and shouldn't receive any special treatment."
Malicious bashing: "Favre is a piece of shit, garbage and an asshole."
2. Healthy fanhood is the former in the above scenario. The blind worship crowd I put in the same extremist camp as the malicious bashers.
The man just gets hotter as he gets older. Sorta like George Clooney!!Originally Posted by GrnBay007
Speaking of which...I see that Brett's official site now has a Jets forum section in there for new members. Those people would be the blind worship crowd that you refer to. You probably will find the people who were walking around holding "Fire TT now" signs and that 6 year old who was cursing at Aaron, posting over there.Originally Posted by esoxx
you're the one with anger, dearie. why are you still making these speeches? You call people who criticized Favre's outragous behavior "bashers" and "haters." And you lobbied for Favre to be released rather than traded so he could play for the Vikings and fulfill your need for vengeance.Originally Posted by GrnBay007
Let it go - it's not healthy.
Finally, A happy home!Originally Posted by GBRulz

It's kinda funny how HH gives me a sermon every time I post anything about Favre. I've noticed that. It's almost like Jr. stalking. :P I think when I post about Favre he gets these deep seeded guilt feelings so he must lash out. It will all be ok HH.Originally Posted by mraynrand
