OFFICIAL BRETT THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

[Tyrone Bigguns]

cool. Now we are on the same page.

[GrnBay007]

Honestly who gives a shit?
I understand that is going to be a yearly debate for the next 50 years of Packer football, but the bottom line, is Favre no longer plays for the Packers, he is a Viking.

If you are a Packer fan you root for the Packers, Favre said it himself. Favre will always be remembered for his 16 years in Green Bay and one year in Minnesota shouldn't change the impact that he made on the Green Bay Packers.

Go a head and be bitter all you want. I don't think he cares. I will tell you this either Favre is a really good actor, or the impact of not playing in the Green and Gold got to him when he was tending to Greg Jennings on the sideline. I know Scott Campbell will take his shot at this, but regardless of the critizism of Favre as a bad teammate that the media ran with the last year or so, he did and still cares about his former teammates in Green Bay.

Brett said it. Are you gonna root for the packers or are you rooting Bert?

[esoxx]

I wonder what would happen if you spilled a large box of toothpicks on a table in front of Favre?

Would he pick one up, study it a spell and then slowly use it to pick his teeth, with a good ol' boy grin?

Or,

Would he quickly blurt out "eight hundred fifty nine....yeah, definitely eight hundred fifty nine."

These are the type of questions that keep me up at night.

Warren Sapp says that he came into the NFL the season after favre won his 1st MVP and that THIS favre is better than THAT favre because of maturity/decision-making, accuaracy, and focus

Alot can be said for wisdom. And life issues (father's death, deanna illness, her bro's deathy, etc...) can help put one's craft in perspective

Like Fatboy MM said, favre was always a gifted athlete with great intangibles. Add that to experience and knowledge, plus chip on shoulder....

He/we should actually THANK t.t. for disrespecting his legacy since icons often NEED a "target," espcially after accomplishing SO much ala jordan getn "mad" at irrelevant bulletin board material even after it was clear he was GOAT....

Like my barber says Favre sittn pretty; can play 3 more years and continually irk GB brass who hav to want him to jus go away - lol

I know like me, most of you all liked the minn star-tribune headline monday LORD OF LAMBEAU (his new title)

I like the 1 sign at the game this lady had: ONE YEAR IN PURPLE CANT ERASE 16 YEARS ON MEMORIES...bingo

Especially since he's 1-1 in his last 2 games there...

[MichiganPackerFan]

I certainly didn't want the Favreless Packers to beat the Favre led Vikings.

That's just plain Nutz

[MichiganPackerFan]

Not surprising in the least. He wanted to play QB, Coach, and GM.

QB and GM maybe, but not coach. The guy never showed much interest in interfering or running play calling. That role is reserved for Manning.

Eventually there will be another tell all book written by Favre, it will be interesting, but again there are three sides to every story, Favre's side, The Packers' side, and the truth. They are both to blame. The reason why I like Rodgers was that through the whole thing he stayed neutral. I am sure he was pissed that Favre wanted to come back and take his job back as a starter, but he never cracked once in the media, and he was open to a competition.

Pretty solid post there. Can't disagree. Overall, I think #4 was more to blame than you do (or that I ASSUME you do)

[FritzDontBlitz]

Why do Packer fans feel they should have the right to decide not only when or where Favre should retire, but which team he can play for if he decides to resume his career? Its pretty silly to claim letting Favre go was "a business decision" but then not be willing to accept the idea that once he leaves he has the right to continue his career as he chooses. I think a lot of us need to just get over it. Favre Derangement Syndrome is not pretty.

[Pugger]

I'll post this question yet again - Why did he retire in the first place? Was he that unhappy with the management style of TT and the coaching of MM? If he says he wanted TT to get veterans so the team would be a winner then he's a goofball. Why would a guy who just played in the NFC Championship game a couple of weeks earlier QUIT on that team? I'm sure MM asked BF to make a decision before the draft and this isn't an unreasonable request. Did BF feel he was being pushed to make a decision? Nonsense. One would think if he wanted to win in Green Bay there wouldn't be any question that he'd be back. This is why I believe he has wanted out of Green Bay ever since TT and MM came on the scene. I believe had he not retired and came back in 2008 he would've been our starting QB and none of this shit would've happened.
