Favre to compete for starting job

[Gunakor]

youre not understanding my point.. HE DOES NOT have to sign that agreement with the packers and if he doesn't, they will lose a lot of cash

YOu aren't understanding my point. THey are no in a bind becuase if Favre gets pissy about ANYTHING, and that includes so called lack of respect, they will have their excuse to put him on the bench, agreement or no agreement.

What he is suggesting is that if Green Bay benches Favre - even if they have a justifiable reason for doing so - Favre will become even more spiteful and not allow the Packers thier 10 year window post retirement to continue to make shit tons of money on Favre merchandise.

I'm predicting Aaron Rodgers legitimately beats out Brett Favre for the starting job in week 1. Combine Brett's complete lack of an offseason with his recent mediocre preseasons and his aging body, and Favre will be the backup in week 1 with nothing to complain about.

dude, hello --

the whole point is brett was like "omg the packers hate me and wont let me play"

now we are ...

he cant get back on it and say "oh i dont wanna be in gb, i dont wanna sign that"

he already _said_ gb was his first choice even tho thats probably not really true. we called his bluff... and here we are.

brett wont be a packer by the end of the season.

you really think the Packers are going to throw away millions upon millions of dollars and put him on the bench>?

IF they don't they should all be fired for being gutless cowards.

If they feel Rodgers gives them the best chance to win, yes I do. Because once Rodgers starts winning they don't need to make money off of Favre merchandise anymore. They'll be making plenty of money on Rodgers merchandise.

it has nothing to do with being cowards... like TT has said and in this situation it applies.. "its just good business"

What Im suggesting is that if they kiss his ass in any way they need to be horse whipped.

is it possible that this whole time the packers were just looking for favre to request his reinstatement to show that he is serious about playing??? that is what they have said - until they knew for sure, they weren't going to make any decisions

If they follow the traditional starting QB gets 75% of the reps in practice..it should be almost impossible for brett to beat him out.

are you illiterate?

where the fuck did i say we would put him on the bench?

we cant trade him for anything of value so we're playing the "brett is a packer" card and waiting for an increased offer.

i said nothing even kind of remotely, just maybe, close to what you insinuated i said ...

[Pacopete4]

It said in the article that Brett and Arod will split reps

NO, becuase then they are a bunch of two faced liars. Then McCarthy needs to apologize for being a decietful SOB and resign immediately becuase he doesn't have any spine.

[imscott72]

This is all a ploy to increase his trade value imo. If they get a good offer he's gone me thinks..

Absolutely. But until they get that offer, it sounds to me like there will be a competition for the starting job.

M3 is the coach. He doesn't get to make all the decisions. We don't know if M3 supports this or not so lets not form the lynch mobs yet.
