Favre saga update

[MadtownPacker]

Favre really is a piece of trash.

You must be a piece of trash as well because he is basically agreeing with you by saying he does not belong on the team.

You can pop the cork now, you are gonna get what you wanted.

Man I hope a wildcard game is at least possible this season.

[LL2]

I'm to the point that they should just release him. Get it over with. I hope he fails then and the public will then view Favre differently and say he ruined his own legacy.

Huh? This is the first redeeming bit that has come out of Favre's mouth this entire off season.

He's agreeing that an open competition is a bad idea. He's right. He's willing to cede that M3's point of view is relevant, which is also right. And he's willing to work with the team to deal with the issue, good for him.

Admittedly his new complaints over the Packers actions are somewhat confusing because he is blaming them for media rumors that they did not start. But I can see why scapegoating Ted for the media makes life easier for him.

Thats why he is trash. He continues to throw management under the bus. Now he has added A-Rod to the list with his arrogance.

Re: Favre saga update

Not to mention he just threw A-Rod under the bus.

No he didn't. He said what everyone already knows. Under what scenario could Rodgers beat Favre in a position battle?

If Favre came in rusty.

The offense always starts off rusty because of timing issues. How can you measure that? If Rodgers completes a couple more passes in a preseason game? Thats not enough to convince everyone Rodgers is better than Favre.

I don't think we're going to get a press conference before practice today as promised. Practice is already in 90 mins and nothing yet.

That is the point of arrogance to think that Favre would win hands down. An arrogance that only a Favre sychophant would share with his idol. He just gave A-Rod bulletin board matieral.

Favre's a living legend, but he's not my hero. I'll ask you again.

This was a practice. I've been at several and he's been very sharp in the others. He had an off day. Recievers dropped balls. Rodgers will show what he's made of. Sunday night was not what I watched the other days I was at practice.

The only one hwos opinion that counts is Mike McCarthy's. As long as ROdgers doesn't do anything stupid, Favre's SOL.

It would be impossible to convince people that Rodgers is better than Favre. That's why a competition never made sense. M3 convinced Favre of this. Good.


For the record, McCarthy has now become my favorite Packer coach since Lombardi. He's got balls and can get crap done.

Like Arod needs bulletin board material. I think he's plenty motivated at this point and should of been all along.

I dont see him throwing ARod under the bus. Is he suppose to say "yeah I suck and the kid will whip my ass"?

I actually think he is referring to the "open" competition being BS.

I cut A-Rod a little slack for the delay and wet conditions, more becuase of the delay and less for the conditions. Also add in the Favre factor.

Favre really is a piece of trash.

For what? Man, you have no idea what the truth is and you're making judgements. You know what happens when you assume right? I'd say their is only one piece of trash.

How about just saying "I asked about an open competition to have a shot to get my job back and they said no". THere was no need for the uncalled for pot shot at Aaron.

Maybe he doesn't think he'll get a fair shot. If they don't want him anyway, can the competition actually be fair? It looks like Brett wants to be annoited the starter and he's not going to accept anything else other than a trade to Minny.
