    I trust Rastak. But MNGolf, hoo boy, how can you trust someone who golfs?

    He golfed? I thought he drove a Volkswagen.

    That would be a gulf. Not that I'm correcting a moderator or anything.

    Hold on now. You're way ahead of yourself. Let's start by talking about retirement for a few years. Then you need to actually retire and unretire. There should also be a younger poster ready to take your place. We'll setup your Greta interview after that.

    Punters aren't even football players. Sure, we give them a helmet and a jersey and a 6 figure contract to make them feel good, but they're not football players. The real football players that line up facing the punter on 4th down get a 15 yard personal foul just for TOUCHING the damn punter! I'm as hard on Brett as anyone but seriously...

    I think things started to fall apart and he just ripped the wheels off and everything just snowballed into a giant shit sandwich he just couldn't stop eating.

    Didn't hear the interview, but from reading some of the transcripts, it sounds like Favre has no intention of reconciling with the Packers as long as Thompson is around. Too bad he's still bitter, but that's his choice and his problem.

    Truly. Too bad for him. Forgiveness can be a powerful healing force.

    He did seem to honestly admit that the money was too good to turn down in 2010, when asked why he returned for that year. Seems very reasonable. But I'd bet it wasn't the only reason.

    Hard to imagine someone with over $150,000,000 in career earnings needed another year of "good" money. It seems like an easy out to say that.

    Nothing wrong will working a couple of extra years but I am guessing his family is set for at least 3 generations without the last two years.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    Some of the radio guys here in the Twin Cities thought he was typical Favre in the interview about 2010. He came out and said that he knew that the magic wasn't going to happen again, said that things just wouldn't fall into place, mentioned some items but never brought up that he simply played poorly.
    All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!

    Self evaluation wasn't his strong suit in the latter half of his career. I wonder if its possible to play QB at a high level for an entire career without eventually succumbing to defensiveness or the urge to collect veteran FAs like a magpie with shiny objects.

    Its probably part and parcel with players who have trouble adjusting to life after football. They don't wish to leave the spotlight, but everything about their profession tells them it will be over very soon.
