  • We'll have our cake and eat it too!!!

    Everything I have read(you know where to look as well as I do) says Brett's coming back to Green Bay. I also predict A-Rod stays through '09. What happens a year from now is anyones guess. Brett gives it at least one more try. Maybe attracting a veteran or two as well.

    Brett's coming back will be the thing that tips the scales for Taylor to come to GB.

            To tell the truth this is what my head's been telling me
            for a couple months now. Leave Green Bay ? No - I don't
            think so, NO way, he's too tied to GB, 16 years ?
            Is it really a halo or
            just a swelled head ?

              i think its time to chime in on the BF drama finally

              first off, who says it would just be for one year? many threads assume that. we would be fine for this year but screwed after that. who says #4 wouldn't play for a few more years. the guy just tried the retirement that he's been toying with for years, and it sure seems like he doesn't enjoy it much. maybe he's learned his leasson and he'll play untill we have to cart him off the field in a hearse?

              i can't believe all the BF hate i see on here all of a sudden. two months ago most everyone on here thought we were screwed with brett leaving. now a-rod has a few good ota's and everyone is on board with him and have turned their backs on the guy who might had a MVP quality season last year.

              i read a lot about favre missing "all of the off season" up until this point. give me a break. he missed a handfull of OTA's. OTA's that he usually skips anyways. now if he were to miss training camp, thats a different issue.

              they have not redesigned their whole offense to suit a-rod in the course of a few OTA's. thats what training camp is for. if a new type of system was started then it sure as hell hasn't been perfected yet

              i have full faith in a-rod being able to lead this team and do it very well. but if #4 decides he made a mistake then i say welcome him but with open arms. things like TT not being willing to return a favre text message only adds fuel to the fire that TT has wanted favre gone for a while now and has been pushing him towards the door

                Very, very impressive record, MTP, but there are 2 points that
                might not go in his favor - they are his age (33) and his
                reaction to salary offers from other teams, plus he will be fined
                over $8600 for every day of minicamps he misses and more
                than that if it comes down to missing TC.

                Sounds like he wants more than teams want to pay for an aging
                DE, some of this might not sit well with TT - but he sure has a mighty impressive record including awards.

                Time will tell.

                  Hench the koolaid comment. He is aging but anticipate he will be good for another year or two (must get him to commit to two years, I am speaking of Taylor here, but could apply to both parties).

                      I'm guessing Taylor wants a long term deal ????

                        No figures were mentioned in the story of course, but that's how I read it too - that any offers made might have been too low. And who knows, maybe he's got a couple of hotshot years left in him,
                        age could be misleading too, If TT's got any interest all they need is an interview to settle it. But he sure sounds good, I have to check the roster, not sure I remember how we stand this year at DE, depth, etc...

                          I don't know what makes you think so, Sheepshead, but I STILL see no evidence or likelihood of Favre coming back, and personally I hope it doesn't happen.

                          And as for damn Jason Taylor, spare us from having THAT rotten rumor come true.
                          What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                              Right on! TT is risking alot by pushing Favre away. The man doesn't seem to care if he's liked or not, but he's never witnessed anything like this in his life if he doesn't take Brett back. I'd hate to be in TT's shoes. He's got 2 options...tell ARod he's not the QB or tell Brett he's not the QB. I would choose the obvious. Welcome home, Brett.
