NAIL IS IN THE COFFIN

[SMACKTALKIE]

I see a problem with Favre joining the Vikkings...............John David Booty wears #4. What would Favre have to pay to wear his number?

Seriously though, TT does have some leverage here. To release Favre would be foolish for the Pack.

[Deputy Nutz]

Oh gawd, Nutz. Don't be so damn dramatic.

The Packers said they don't wnat him to come out of retirement. He still has a choice. Favre isn't Thompson's gimp locked in teh basement getting molested.

Fuck, dude. Get a grip

Isn't it time you go and lick your dogs nuts? funny how you give me this little warning and then just start fucking tripping.

Hey ass hole. I'm not tripping. I'm going to slash your tires if you keep this up.

Funny. Slash my tires? How about I hang your fucking dog in your front yard? Not funny, sick, but not really all that laughable, maybe Skinbasket would laugh, but I wouldn't.

I wanted to have a discussion, but you wanted to comment on my way of thinking and this and that, instead you tried to again get intelligent and simply that is just the wrong route for you.

[Deputy Nutz]

Just to set the record straight, I don't really want to hang your fucking dog, hopefully you really don't want to slash my tires.

TT and the Packers have ZERO leverage... Favre can make this a pain in the ass as much as he wants too..

No harm. Sensative time. And yeah, I was kidding. It just got so back and forth that I couldn't help but laugh at it. And my humor sucks so you probably didn't know

Ouch. Well......I guess out of all of this..... I find interesting how much MM has been pointed out as one of the bad guys in this situation. Is MM a puppet or Decision maker? Not trying to be sarcastic....looking for opinions of Pack fans.

[Pacopete4]

I think MM is sayin everything that TT wants him to because when it boils down to everything... MM works for TT

[HarveyWallbangers]

Packers have plenty of leverage. Not ideal leverage, but they can work out a trade, get something for Favre, and ensure that he won't be playing in the division next year.

Bad guy in what way? That he tried to convince Brett to stay retired--after he had retired, gotten the okay to come back, and then re-retired.

And you know you are trying to be sarcastic. I know Viking fans, and very few of them are just "looking for opinions of Pack fans." I think Rastak and mngolf are the only two I know who are like that.

I'm 34, married, bachelor degree, good job, and love football. Lifelong Viking fan and extremely loyal. I did not join this site to be a jerk or antagonist. I'm sick of totally agreeable Vikings sites so I thought I would try here. Just strangely interested in Packer fan's opinion. No ill will.

With a name like smacktalkie it's hard to know this. It's an emotional time. Coming here at a time like this is delicate. It would be like a Packers fan jumping on a Vikings forum after Peterson got injured last year. Can't help but think the worst.

Pacopete, do you live in the Twin Cities? The rivalry is ugly around here. Not a lot of respect that goes on between the two sides.

[Pacopete4]

I live in Superior, Wisconsin.. across the bridge from Duluth, MN on the tip of Lake Superior... also known as the Northland


its about 50/50 Packers-Vikings fans up here but the Vikings fans usually disappear about the 7-8th week of the season every year

[mmmdk]

Just finished reading most of this thread and it's quite evident that with all this fan speculation on the semantics of Favre/TT/MM; that the truth is the real victim here.

The tone on this thread is childish at best but I understand where everyone comes from. So I ain't gonna point fingers!

I think I'm good with any kind of outcome and that's a big change in my Packer world. Personally, I just want my Packers to win; this season does presently seem like a wash though but you never know.

No hidden agenda in the above or seeds of splitting.

Just a nsme. Nothing more. Stayed away from the topic until this piont. Simply intrigued about MM according to the Favre interview tonight at this point.

[cpk1994]

watched it with my wife; she reads facial expressions and tone better than I. Chicks do that

Harsh, blunt, and a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Looked jaded

Those are the perceptions of a chick

I wouldn't call it harsh or blunt, but he was definitely prepared
to talk and tell his side, no stammering or searching for words - I thought he came across as very strong, it was good to see him at least looking
and sounding like he felt strong, mentally and physically.
But who knows what they'll allow for him ????

Stay tuned for the 2nd half tomorrow night.

NO stammering? I took 5 minutes of stammering before he even answered the first question. Greta better ask him this question in part 2 or the whole interview is BS: "It is reported that the Packers were ready to welcome you back in late March and then told them you were still retired. If they were pushing you out, as you claim, how do you explain that?"
