One of the things I read that was interesting in case the Vikings are found guilty of tampering, Goodell might tailor the punishment in such a way that the Packers are more likely to give up Favre for less. For example, if the Packers were to be given the Vikings' second round pick due to the tampering case, they would potentially lower their asking price for Favre since they already got a second round pick out of Favre unretiring.

Really, I wouldn't believe anything we hear from the Bucs or the Jets about Favre these days. It's the standard dance teams do around draft time to try to affect the values of players they're interested in. If there's a player you want, don't make waves that you're interested, that way you won't drive up his value. In fact, make waves that you're not going to be getting that guy so his value would be driven down.

That won't matter. Goodell can try that but it won't work. Ted will not change his demands at all becuase of Goodell. Goodell stuck his nose where it didn't belong and now TT is going to make him pay for it.

TT has some cards but Goodell owns the deck. I completely disagree with your take. He is judge and jury, like it or not.

goodell has the ultimate authority, but it will set a bad precedent if the league can force a team to take a certain action with a player...a very bad precedent indeed

I agree falco. He doesn't want to set a bad precedent. The OP thinks TT can stick it to the commish, I'm only pointing out that's bullshit.

Well, Ras, on the bright side you see how much we respect your teams talent.


On the down side, you see how little we think of your QB.



Sometimes opposing teams just talk shit. In the case of Tavaris we really believe it

At the rate he's going, he won't suit up in any color.

Unless he and Deanna buy some colored condoms...
