Holy Crap! Favre'll show up for camp!

[The Leaper]

Favre will be dealt withinthe next couple of days. My money is on the Jets.

Then you will be wrong.

Favre has the right to veto any trade...and he sure as hell won't go to the Jets.

[The Leaper]

If that's true, if Favre really shot down a trade to Tampa or NYJ, and if he's really insisting on coming back and sticking it to 'em, then if I were TT I'd stick it right back: put him through a few weeks of training camp and then stick him on the IR for the year. End of consecutive game streak.

Yeah...paying Favre $13M is sure a great way to stick it to him.

Come on people...don't hold back anything here...this is an open forum.

O.K.

I like hot chicks with nice racks....especially Latinas.

Personally, I would give the job to Favre. He's the better QB right now.

But how can one accurately say this? We don't know what goes on every day in practice, we don't know what goes on every day during film session. How quickly we forget Favre 05 and 06 campaigns. Clearly he needs sick talent around him to have a good year, at this age.

What if Rodgers can decipher film faster than any QB MM has ever worked with? What if his accuracy is unparalleled, what if his ball security is like none other? There must be something which is making TT and MM go with another option. As good as Favre was last year, they must think Rodgers is even better, and thats exciting to me.

To me, there HAS to be a reason that MM - a smart man who has worked with a plethora of QBs - wants Rodgers, and he knows more than you or I.

You think Favre is doing it for the money? You think the Packers' bottom line would suffer? At this point it's sounding like Favre might pay $13 big ones for the chance to stick it to TT.

What exactly do you think the league would do if they put Favre on IR and he said he isn't injured and so do his doctors? You do know it's a rules violation to declare non-existent injuries. Although for some reason it doesn't apply to New England.....

How quickly we forget Favre 05 and 06 campaigns.

I don't forget...I remember vividly Favre having to play on an offense with Samkon Gado at RB and throwing to WRs like Taco Wallace.

Tom Brady could not have produced anything with our offense in 2005.

[Charles Woodson]

Now this is what i dont understand...
A team like the Jets could make a decent amount on getting Favre, then turning around and dealing him to the Vikings... What a twist that would be.
But still, i honestly dont think theres any way that Favre goes to the Jets, i mean playing in the same Div as the patriots would suckk.

My money is on him being a viking some how, although it would suck

[SkinBasket]

My guess is all the management felt the heat from 50% of Packer fans ready to turn Aaron Rodgers into Nancy Kerrigan, and realized how wrong wrong wrong they are for turning their back on the face of the franchise and for spitting in the face of fans ready to win now.

Don't forget the pillaging of the village and the raping of the livestock.

[The Leaper]

If you believe that, I have some great beachfront property in Florida to sell you.

Both McCarthy and Thompson are on record as saying they were all ready for Favre to come back and be the starter in 2008 after last season...and looking forward to it.

The notion that Rodgers is a better QB than Favre right now was not crossing their mind.

If Favre is dealt, the deal will either be conditional with some things kicking in if Favre is dealt in the 2008 or 2009 seasons -or- it will be based on a gentlemen's agreement to not deal Favre again. If it's the latter and the GM turns around and deals him anyway, Thompson will let it be known that the offending GM is not trustworthy. This will hurt his standing among other GMs in the league and make it more difficult to negotiate with other teams (as well as players).

The Vikes would have to make a hell of an offer for either of these things to happen.

Maybe you dont know what it means to be politically correct. I guess if you blindly follow Favre around, bashing everyone under the sun is completely acceptable.

Hasn't crossed there minds? What about their dreams? Do you know if they have dreamt about it?

I was in the back yard the other day and Thompson was back there shitting in the bird bath screaming Partial is right about me!

But like you said, The Leaper, there are a lot of good long term reasons for Rodgers to get significant play time this season. We need to see if he's the future of this team before the end of the year or we will have wasted all the time spent on him.

Even if Brett does come back and convinces management to let him start, I wouldn't be surprised if Rodgers was still given 40-50% of the downs. This transition has to come eventually, and now is as good of a time as any.
