Woodson: Favre had lots of opportunities to reach out to Rodgers
Posted by Michael David Smith on February 18, 2011, 5:04 PM EST
http://nbcprofootballtalk.files.word...ers2.jpg?w=250The reports this week that Brett Favre wants to bury the hatchet with Aaron Rodgers has one player who’s been teammates with both of them wondering what took Favre so long.
Charles Woodson said today on ESPN’s Jim Rome Is Burning that if Favre wants to reach out, that’s fine. But Rodgers should get to savor his status as the reigning Super Bowl Most Valuable Player without any Favre-related distractions.
“This deal with Brett, I’m not sure what that’s all about,” Woodson said. “I know he’s had numerous opportunities to reach out. Why now? I don’t know. But for A-Rod, he doesn’t have to do anything. He’s a champion, he needs to enjoy this moment and not even worry about all that.”
One Packers player told Mike Freeman of CBS that he thinks the bitterness between Rodgers and Favre runs deep enough that if Favre did call, Rodgers might not answer. Woodson said he thinks Rodgers would talk to Favre, although he’s not sure it would be the friendliest of conversations.
“I don’t know the extent of what their relationship was,” Woodson said. “If Brett called him, he’d probably take the call. What’s said? I don’t know.”
None of us knows what would be said between Favre and Rodgers at this point. But we’d all like to hear it.
Damn you Scott! OK, here are my choices for post #8000:

STOP THE MADNESS! :)
Here's a quote from Woodson from the above article, on Brent apparently making it known lately that he wants to "reach out" to Rodgers: "“I know he’s had numerous opportunities to reach out. Why now? I don’t know."
Yeah....why now, Brent? Let it die, dude. Or start making noises about wanting to contact Rodgers in the spring, when the players get locked out and we've got nothing to talk about. Or better yet, just contact Rodgers and don't make noises about doing so in the media.
Its sad what has become of him. I hope he turns it around some how. I love Rodgers but I didn't forget Brett and all those years of watching him.
Has Favre now managed to make Rodgers look like the bad guy in this to some? Media questioning what RODGERS would do if FAVRE reached out to him? RODGERS obstructing the healing process? Unbelievable.
Rodgers has been a complete gentleman when it comes to all things Favre. We do know that Rodgers tried to contact Favre, and Favre ignored him. But now Rodgers attitude is questioned?
I wish someone in the national media would openly question Favre's sincerity and motives. His attempts at manipulation never end.
CONGRATULATIONS Scott !! Somehow I suspected that 'a Favre keener like you' would be on top of that 8000th post in this 'Giant of a thread'. Way to go Scott ! Outstanding concentration.
Dear Lord couldn't help noticing. Those two are aging rapidly. Ted Thompson and Aaron Rodgers looked great back then. Wondering if they're taking their 'One a day Multi-Vit'?
GO PACK GO !
Woody, don't start the feud with SC again. Please.
Goodness, let's enjoy the SB victory, have some fun at Favre's expense and enjoy the off-season. Just a thought.
Feud...uhh?! Nope. A man like Scott can handle those posts. There all 'tongue in cheek' Kiwon. Meant to be harmless. (-:
Worth 1000 words.

Say, how come Favre didn't sign with the Packers so he could then retire a Packer? Guys do that stuff all the time!
He is not sure how the team would react if he tried to call. They might ignore it, hang up or make him look foolish in the media. Its tough being Brett.
Maybe he could have a friend talk to them and see if they still like him.

Maybe the friend could arrange a dinner meeting at Applebee's.
OMG! Like, Donald, could you like ask McCarthy if he sorta like, ya know, likes me still. I mean, well, it's just that he's soooo cute and I can't like ask him to his face. He was just so weird in the hallway, like, he was talking to his friends and was all like "I'm really busy" and I was like "I'm really busy with ya know, like homework and youtube and like facebook." Maybe he could like have one of his friends facebook me.
