    • Who had the Favre returning 'checklist?' Wasn't talking to Al jones the First step? Then comes ?? followed by throwing to the high school kids, etc. It would be boring and tedious if it weren't so funny.

        I don't think he ever actually contemplated retirement - he only used the retirement card to get out of Green Bay and NY so he could get to where he wanted to go all along = MN.

          Once he discovered there was no longer a place for him on the team and ARod became the guy, yes.

          Before that, no.

          • imagine if T.T. let Favre come back in 2008... There is no chance in hell Aaron Rodgers would be waiting another year (past 2010)... The packers would be truley screwed because of the flip flopping he has been doing since 2005/2006... I'm glad my most hated draft pick (at the time) turned out to be one of the best choices a packers G.M. has made in the past decade.

              This is true but an interesting thing has been happening in MN that will make this even more true. 6th round pick Joe Webb, drafted as a WR spent 2 days in rookie camp and showed enough as a QB to unseat Rosenfels. Webb is now behind Jackson and if he can improve at all he may unseat Jackson by next year. Jackson's contract is up after this year and will be interesting to see how they deal with him next year.

                Wow. I didn't think Rosenfels was quite this bad, even though I've never seen a QB (other than Favre) give away a game quite like he did to Indy a couple of years back...

                • A sixth rounder drafted as a receiver unseated Rosenfels as QB?

                    This is certainly news to me.

                    As for Favre, there was realistically little doubt he was coming back, especially after the ankle surgery. That ankle would of been the only thing to prevent him from coming back after the season he had.

                      When does he start throwing at the high school? That Favre, he's like a kid out there!

                        They would have finished with maybe a 10-6 record and then traded Aaron Rodgers along with their #1 pick to Seattle in the 2008-2009 offseason to move up and draft Aaron Maybin.

                          TT gets most of the blame, or credit (depending on your view), but I'm inclined to think it was ultimately MM's call. If MM had wanted Favre back, I don't think TT would have overruled him, even though he may have disagreed.

                            Maybe Sage Rosenfels was watching the 6th round of the draft mumbling "Not Joe Webb...not Joe Webb... please not Joe Webb...DAMMIT!"
