    Call it whatever you will, I remember Packer fans being pretty excited when Favre came back every season, I remember his teammates being excited when he came back for another season. when he came back for 2007 he didn't leave much of a gap, he made the decision pretty early. I might be wrong about that but I thought it was long before the draft.

    The above extablishes your credibility as a member here that has a clue regarding 'the TRUTH'!?

    Nope. You failed yourself miserably in the above false judgements and in terms of your conduct and manners.

    Your out to lunch Tony Oday. You beat yourself. The weird thing here is that 'the usual suspects' will applaud you.

    Bullshit !

    Favre always said the same thing at the end of his last few seasons as a Packer. Re: returning.

    As the season ended he said he wasn't sure he would be back but felt he could still contribute.. That he would have to see if 'in fact' the Packer organization wanted him back.

    Your right Favre always said he would come back right away ESPN was just looking for ratings and faked it all.

    True or False (My answers in brackets):
    1. BF was the starting QB for the Packers for the 2007 NFC Championship game. (True)
    2. BF retired from the NFL. (True)
    3. The Packers stated that ARod was their starting QB for the 2008 season. (True)
    4. BF called the Packers and said he wanted to unretire. (True)
    5. MM and TT were ready to fly to MS to meet with BF regarding his position with the Packers. (True)
    6. BF called TT and said he was going to stay retired. (True)
    7. BF calls the Packers and says he wants to play. (True)
    8. MM tells BF that he has to compete for the starting QB position. (True)

    Let's start with that and see what we come up with.
    This true and fase post though I appreciate the effort put forth in it is moot and off topic.

    ThunderDan...Focus please on the status of Brett Favre Vs TT and MM... 'in terms of continued bad feeling' or NOT.

    I assure you. To go on trying to establish that Favre has such bad feelings is a losing position ThunderDan. I'll advise you further.

    Maybe? consider this Thunderdan.

    It's not self gratifying when I certainly know I can back myself up. It might just be easier for you to save face by standing down. Your position 'will lose' for you.

    I've been a teacher most of my life. A good teacher ensures that the student puts in the necessary effort towords arriving at the correct answer / response / TRUTH. The window of time to arrive at that TRUTH is from AQugust 2008 untill well today. fill your boots.

    Find the TRUTH and don't expect me to spoon feed you that TRUTH. Are you familiar at all with martial arts? My way and methods are much derived from that.

    I won't give to you what I worked so hard to find.

    Correct Mad.

    It serves no logical purpose not to simply question the post whenever another member feels that's relevant. Ignorance may warrant a return post that only demonstrates a mutual disrespect and results in a 'no win' situation. A sad outcome. We deserve more from one another as members here.

    To attack the poster with 'flaming language and accusations that cannot be justified': with poor manners.

    Is certainly unacceptable.

    Youre right its not acceptable so before you declare yourself a moral authority think about when you start jumping down on someones throat for having any opinion that differs from yours.

    The Packers offered an olive branch. Let's see how #4 responds.
    Did the Packers offer 'an olive branch'? Has that offer been made concretely?

    I do not see it that way Pugger.

    Sorry, woodbuck but that highlighted statement is a complete and utter bold faced lie!

    As the GM of the GB Packers, TT's job was to "control" all of the players under contract with the GB Packers.

    If TT would have released BF with no compensation I would have been on board with demanding TT's resignation.

    The job of the GM is to make their team as competitive as possible in the NFL and releasing players for no compensation and letting them go to a divisional foe is complete mismanagement by a GM.
    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.

    Now let's see the real TRUTH that woodbuck claims.

    BF retired from the Jets. He then told Mike Tannenbaum that he wanted his release from the Jets assuring the GM that he was done playing in the NFL. Tannenbaum said NO. Then Bus Cook got into the act again saying BF wasn't going to play again and wanted his release from the Jets. This time Mike Tannenbaum did.

    After BF got his release he started talking with the Vikings saying he wanted to stick it to TT and Packers.

    I think if Favre wanted to play, then it was Thompson's responsibility to open up the facility and locker room to Favre, or cut him, but not sit on him and hope he would go away. I never heard McCarthy say that he was opening up competition between Favre and Rodgers. The only thing I heard was that Rodgers was open to competition with Favre, and that when Favre was asked by the media Favre stated that he didn't believe a competition existed, that he had already earned the starting position, which was true. Packer fan wouldn't have stood for Rodgers starting over Favre in the 2008 season. Especially the way the season turned out.

    Thompson in fact told Favre that he was going to be traded to the Bucs, then turned around and traded him to the Jets because he didn't want Favre to play against the Packers.

    If I jumped down every members throat here for having a position or opinion different from mine. I would be one angry ass'd man Mad. I do not get that way as I know I'm generally right. My positions...solid. If you imagine that gives me certain satisfaction ... your wrong.

    I'm actually incredulous to the ignorance of some here. That's what makes the earth spin.

    Inspite of that I post by far with manners with decency even if I can't agree with some here.

    Considered 'my manners' in an objective sense Mad:

    I'm a true gentleman here and by far overall a solid support for you and Packerrats. I know there's alot of heat on you 'to piss all over me'. I understand the heat on you by members here that I can 'only try my very best' to respect.

    We both have a true test.

    I can meet mine. (-:

    Actually they needed the cap space, and had to cut him before the draft. If Favre was going to play he would have gotten to Minnesota a little bit earlier than the 3rd preseason game. The Jets would have been fools to hold on to Favre's contract, he was old and hurt, and couldn't play unless he had surgery on his bicep. You are telling me that you were gonna pay Favre 15 million dollars after he fell apart at the end of the season and damaged his throwing arm in the process?

    Don't act like Bus Cook came out of no where, he was Favre's agent, of course he is going to act in his clients best interest.

    I do not stress that it wasn't TT's job to control Brett Favre RE: any possibility of Favre going to a divisional rival. I stress that I meant that in strictly this sense:

    TT could NOT ethically or reasonably control Brett Favre's love of the game of football and whether or not he could play elsewhere....retire or not...retire and unretire.

    Yes he could, it's called a 10 year $100,000,000 contract thru 2010. TT got to decide exactly where BF played. If BF wanted to retire that was his personal choice. If he didn't want to retire it was TT choice until he released BF from the contract or traded BF to another team.
    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.
