I stand by it. Why?

Conventional wisdom - because of your ridiculous false pride, and you're an egomaniac.

Re: MODIFIED EXPECTATIONS OR VIEWPOINTS with the LEGEND GONE

Scott Campbell (poor soul) carries my prediction around (of TT and no Super Bowl appearance through 2013, moreso then no win) like a rusty anchor.

Sorry. I had hoped it wouldn't bother you.

It's just a reminder of where your true loyalties lie. Your hatred of Ted always comes first.

Bothering me Scott? Absolutely Noooo! It just makes you appear as you really are.

Playing the fool = Scott Campbell

Let it go man. Please for your own sake. Give it a rest Scott.

Otherwise someone, PLEASE. . . call 911 for Scott Campbell. He needs help and a rest.

The dropoff in experience between Favre and Rodgers is enormous. I don't think many of you really have put any thought into that. Teams will not respect the pass as much as they used to with Favre under center...and our running game will suffer as a result.

Until our interior OL starts producing at a consistent level, this team is no better than .500 team with a first-time starter under center.

Thing is, they have to respect the WRs we have. If teams want to go into the game expecting they can cover Driver and Jennings one on one all game, they will get burned by even an avg QB. I believe that ARod is at least an avg QB.

I've been saying this for a while... if you don't have a power running game, you have to have a pro bowl calibur QB to have a chance at making a SB run.

To me, it's all about winning the SB... I don't think Rodgers can do that for us. It's that simple for me - if the guy isn't the answer to winning the SB, then I'm already on to plan B and looking for the guy who is.

IF Rodgers can stay healthy, a HUGE IF, he can probably lead the team to a respectable record, but I just don't see him leading the Packers to a championship.

That's right boys.

Always hold a grudge.

I will MF Tank until they put the pennies on his eyes.

Then I'll steal 'em so he don't get into hell.

( I pray with all my might they don't sign Harrington, then he will be right about something for the only time in his life!)

A mere signing won't make Tank right. Harrington would have to play great here for that bit of prophesy to come true. And even then, there's always Michael Huff.

Donovan Darius
Logan Mankins shudda been drafted instead of ARod
TT was a fool
Sherman was a great GM
Coldplay rocks
Tank was a shutdown corner that performed his magic on Darren Charles
etc
etc
Ad infinitem

Come to think of it, I'm good. He's a fool on a lot of counts

Good to see you back you old dog you.

This is a pretty unique situation. I don't remember too many QB's hanging it up with a team on the upswing. Most hang it up as a team is about to crash.

Rodgers really has no excuse for performing poorly. He hasn't started too many games, but like Romo, Young and Rivers, he's had time in the NFL to get adjusted to the offense. Maybe he won't be great, but if he plays like crap for most of the year, there is little tolerence outside of devastating injury around him.

As far as Thompson goes, this is his real measuring stick. He's shown he can build from 4-12 to 13-3 with a HOF QB on the backend of his career. Now, can he do it without that luxury? Time will certainly tell. I have a lot of confidence in Thompson, but I do agree that Favre and Sherman have clouded judgement of his performance so far. As far as I'm concerned, the real judgement of Thompson will start now and end when his tenure is done. The first 3 years were just getting the base set.

Anyone remember how bad Bubby Brister played for the Super Bowl Champs after John Elway retired? Everyone thought Brister could step in and manage a well maintained offense. It really didn't work out well.

Geeze thats hardly fair. Bubby sucked in Pittsburg long before he went to Denver. We dont know if Rodgers sucks yet.

If I remember correctly he filled in for a few games for Elway during their Super Bowl run with some success. The Broncos thought that they had an answer for the retiring Elway because of a few cameos by Brister.

Re: MODIFIED EXPECTATIONS OR VIEWPOINTS with the LEGEND GONE

To say Favre was the reason we went 13-3 is silly too. Favre has been here 16 years, and we only won 13 games three times.

13 wins--3
12 wins--2
11 wins--2
10 wins--2
9 wins--4

(8 wins--2)
(4 wins--1)

11 Division Titles

During Brett's 16 years Green Bay won MORE football games than ANY other team in the league.

How many different coaches, WRs, RBs, OL, and teammates in general did Brett have in those 16 years?

Number of times in 16 years that Brett had a RB with 1200 or more yards:
4 times (Green 3, Levens 1)

Of course it was not all or even mostly Brett, but it was damn sure a lot of it.

Wow...that's amazing to have only one losing season in all those years. Dumb question, but has Peyton Manning or Tom Brady ever had a below .500 season as a starter?
Brett....You are and will always be the man!

Brady no. Worst season..9-7.

Manning yes. Rookie year 3-13.

2001: 6-10...that was the Mora meltdown year..."Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs. Are you kidding me? Playoffs? I'm just hoping we can win a game, another game."

No Scott I'm just intelligent and use it right. Except when it comes to working over a moron like you. Then I drift to my dark side.

Your just so darn irrisistable Scott.

Well, that was homo-erotic and kind of creepy. But it's the thought that counts.
