I wouldn't have any trouble with Favre thanking the Vikings by displaying a jersey if he felt that loyalty. The HOF honor is about him, not us. If he feels loyalty to both teams, BFD. BTW, those are just people like us over der in Minnesota, they aren't really slime. Sports rivalries are a fun fantasy.
It sounds like Favre had nothing to do with the display:
After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.
I can't agree more I remember suffering through the seventies I love the Packers but those were some really rough years then we had a little ray of sunshine with the Magic Man then came Favre and when or lose the games became fun to watch true it would have been nice to have a few less interceptions but the games were always interesting and teams did not come in here thinking the games were gimmes.
Let the hate go people. The guy helped bring GB back from the fucking dead. I don't really care about the Jet or Queen years. All I know is how fucking excited I was when he was playing for the Packers and will never forget it.

I watched Jon Gruden and Brett do a show called QB Camp. I learned that Favre's reputation for "drawing stuff up in the dirt" doesn't convey his remarkable grasp of the game. He only adjusted plays in the huddle when he had seen a weakness or knew he could exploit a defender's tendencies. He taught his receivers to run short slants on every running play with an expectation that the ball would be coming if defenders grew tired of covering nothing and sold out on the faked handoff. For a guy that comes off as a bit slow, he has a savante-like memory for formations, routes, and play calls.
At this point, anyone still hating needs to just stop and go back to fully enjoying the Favre era.
