I've been a Packer fan through the Lynn Dickey, Randy Wright, Don Majikowski and Brett Favre years. I will be a Packer fan for the A Rod years as well and past when he is gone. Been through bad management/coaches and good management/coaches.
I am a Packer fan. Always have been, always will be. That's whose side I'll stand by.All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!

I don't think Favre's or the Jets performance has anything to do with being able to say I told you so. Favre could struggle with the Jets, but that doesn't mean he would have with the Packers. He has some hurdles to get over in NY. Rodgers has to perform, period! He doesn't have to light it up, but he does have to win...cause Favre proved he could win with this bunch!Originally posted by Harlan HucklebyI support TT & MM's decision because it was a reasonable one, and I admire them for taking the heat and doing what they think is right.
Regardless of how things turn out, I won't have a problem with their choice. I really don't think the outcome is predictable.
I think both sides of this debate are waiting/hoping to say "I told you so" depending on the relative performance of Favre & Rodgers.
And why is this topic worthy of a new thread? I don't know. I just don't know.

There will be I Told You So's flying all around. For instance, LEWCWA says Favre sucking with the Jets wouldn't prove a thing. Well, there's no telling if uncommitted Favre would have duplicated last year--even if he was with Green Bay. It would have been hard. That was one of the best years of his career.Originally posted by LEWCWAI don't think Favre's or the Jets performance has anything to do with being able to say I told you so.

You can see how this whole thing will go. The same people will have the same opinion at the end of the year, and few will budge from the hard-line stance they've taken."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

I'll give you a definite probably on standing by Thompson and McCarthy.
If the season happened to go in the toilet due to injuries--like the 4-12 a few years ago, they certainly couldn't be blamed.
I think it would take a string of bad seasons to turn me against them. The logic in supporting that dynamic duo is that they have built such a strong overall team. If it somehow becomes apparent that last season was nothing but luck and Favre, rather than great talent all around, then that logic goes away. I don't really think that will happen, though.
What if Favre excels and Rodgers flops? Thompson and McCarthy would indeed, look bad, but I'd be a hypocrite to hate on them for that when I, too, expected it the other way around. I still expect Rodgers to excel and Favre to flop--that's the third time I've predicted that now.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

your comment comes dangerously close to some curious logic I heard from a radio show caller today. He said that if Favre struggles with the Jets, he's going to hold TT accountable for putting Brett into a bad position.Originally posted by LEWCWAI don't think Favre's or the Jets performance has anything to do with being able to say I told you so.

The Brett Favre Cult is quite something. I'm going to counter with my own spin: if Aaron Rodgers plays badly, I'm blaming FAvre for putting undo pressure on Rodgers by creating this whole drama.
What do you think, does that fly?
