No. 4 Should Have Been At Mini-Camp, If He's Still A Leader

[swede]

You know news has got to be slow if the most popular topic is the fact that someone didn't make it to a voluntary camp.

Yeah, well what can you do? The corn in the poop thread never took off.

[GBRulz]

yeah and SOV will be happy that he doesn't have to bump his own posts

LOL. I did my best!

I laughed at the thread. But I had to look up that screwy word you used.

VICTOR! I love the thread. You got the finger on the old hot button as usual. Don't even ask where my finger is. 6 pages too! Nice work. Good to have some controversy around here. I have always defended Favre in the past, and consider myself an optimist when it comes to this team. Honestly though, I do wish Favre attended every mini camp. I'm not all flarred up like a pack of hemmorids because of his absence, but him being around these camps would be beneficial from a leadership stand point. Will it have any impact on this season? Probably not, it's very early. Favre will take his leadership role later in the summer. Even if it did matter, would it be Favre's fault, or the Head Coach's for allowing it?

Don't be shocked, every piece Vic writes goes platinum. He's like Eminem, Stevie Wonder, Randy Wright, and Ned Beatty rolled into one.

The reason this topic keeps it's legs, is because some of us can admit Favre's skills and attitude, are nowhere near what they were in his prime.
He's not going to win games with his arm anymore. He needs to use his experience to his advantage, and make better choices with the rock.
He needs to work even harder now, knowing the talent level around him, is average at best. He doesn't seem like the QB that used to put the team on his back, and did whatever he had to to get a win. It's not just about missing a few days of practice, it's about a pattern of behavior, that exhibits a lack of motivation, to be the best.

What about the new 'behaviour' last off season (and possibly continued this off-season) of hiring a personal trainer and devoting time to staing in shape?

[son of a vic]

Mentally, I don't think he's in football shape. Physically, he can still get it done, if he doesn't turn the ball over, which reverts back to the metal toughness that he lacked last season.

[Bretsky]

Who really gives a shit?

My thoughts as well

[Bretsky]

Until someone has the stones to challenge King Brett, he will keep stringing us along during the off-season, and underachieving during the regulaR season.

Yes, he's been drastically underachieving the past 3-4 seasons when he missed some of these invaluable minicamps as well

[Bretsky]

If Brett told MM he wasn't coming, that is a HUGE deal. That means he's uncoachable and will no doubt throw caution to the wind in the name of gunslingership.

NO; IF MM TOLD BRETT HE WAS NOT EXCUSED, THEN IT'S A PROBLEM

Sorry, I had ignored it til after the 24 season finale and am just getting caught up.

Randy Wright? The ex-badger/packer?
