NAIL IS IN THE COFFIN

The only way this happens though is if Favre and Thompson sit face to face and have a chat... that is THE only way this happens but I really don't see that happening cuz they both seem to wanna be dumb with this issue

[Harlan Huckleby]

I don't think we'll see Favre in a Packer uniform or any uniform for that matter this year.

oh phooey. When is the last time a star player sat out a season in any sport. Favre doesn't even have a contract dispute. he'll play, probably in GB, but somewhere.

TT hasn't done a single dumb thing. And there is absolutely no indication that he has avoided communication with Favre.


This fuck-up is 100% on Madonna, a.k.a Favre.

Oh, come on Harlan... it goes both ways and I've seen reports from both guys now that they both have done stupid things

I don't know Harlan, he won't be with the Packers unless he does a 180 and decides he's willing to compete for the starting job because the Packers won't hand it to him. And unitl he officially unretires he won't get traded. Every day that he doesn't do that makes it less and less likely he'll ever do it.

[Harlan Huckleby]

If TT and MM are stupid, then I'm stupid too. Because even with the benefit of hindsight, I would say and do pretty much exactly what they did.

Honestly, the only questionable thing TT was to suggest that Favre was welcome to come back in a non-starter role. That was a political way of TT telling Favre to go fuck himself. That's about what I would have done too.

Fundamentally, MM & TT bent over backwards to accomodate Favre, they have NOTHING to apologize for.

I don't agree HH but I'm sick of debating this

Agreed, at least on a "what is reasonable" scale. I just don't see what else they should have done differently.

What looks like a big deal is actually a big nothing. Once it moves off a confrontational, hurt-feelings plane, things will just fall into place. Favre can "compete for a starting job" if he feels the Packers want him. That just means he is in camp splitting time with Arod.
