BREAKING NEWS: Brett Favre asks Packers for his release

[Zool]

JSO says the Packers won't release Favre and they won't trade him to an NFC North team. Also, "A client of Cook's recently told a friend that Miami and Carolina were the teams that were Favre's most likely landing place".

Wonder what we'll get for him? This could be a win-win situation.

Don't forget the San Francisco 49ers received a player and a first-round pick from the Kansas City Chiefs for Joe Montana and a third-round pick when the legendary quarterback was dealt near the end of his career. Favre has more value now than Montana - who was coming off a back injury -- did then, and the Packers could find themselves receiving interest from a number of teams.

The Montana example just proved that the Chiefs overpaid. He wasn't worth a first and a third. Neither is Brett.

How old was Montana when he got traded?

37 when the season started.

Why don't they deal A-Rod for a one?!? You don't deal a legendary quarterback unless you think you have a very, very good player behind him. It could be 100 years before we see another playmaker at quarterback.

A-Rod is not Steve Young.

yeah you do, when he never knows if he wants to play another year, and only has 1-2 years left. Rodgers has 10+ years left

do some homework

.................is clean proof to me that they wanted him gone in the first place

This really isn't proof of anything, and there is far more "proof" on the other side of your arguement, including Brett's own admission that Ted never tried to force him out.

A-Rod hasn't shown to be anything but a dissapointment.

He hasn't been able to stay healthy at all.

He didn't show any promise until last year.

I highly doubt he'll be a ten year starter in the NFL.

Says who? Joe Montana was not Joe Montana till he became Joe Montana.

Well Steve Young wasn't Steve Young either, until after he took over and established himself.

Not true. Like Favre, Steve Young was a young, talented back-up that a team traded for. A-Rod is "lottery" pick leftovers.

Favre wasnt backing up anybody--he was on the bench period.

and thats the rub here..TT and MM obviously see something in ARod we could never see. (because contrary to some posters on here-he hasnt played any footballl yet) either did Favre. But Wolf saw something in him. TT has his job on the line with ARod just like Wolf did in 1992

I take that as a personal challenge. I will post something way dumber before the day is out. Well maybe not way dumber, but I will surpass the bar that has been set.
