M1 is turning into my grandfather.

Why is Craig Stadler in town? Had no idea they were friends.

They must be getting way more traffic than expected because the live stream is an epic fail. Constantly freezing up.

The wi channels on tv are glitchy as well. The NFL network coverage sucks as they are behind and continually cuts away and talks.

Ah, the mid-90's. Awkward was the norm

Ed Werder @Edwerderespn

.@Favre4Official talked to #Packers GM Ted Thompson, told me, "I had a chance to meet with Ted. We didn’t need last night to be OK."

I thought the induction ceremony was very nice. Enjoyed listening to stories from players/coaches. Favre was, IMO, very humble. Thanked a huge amount of people in the Packer organization, all by name, right down to the maintenance crew. The 67,000 + fans that bought tickets to sit in Lambeau field and watch the induction on the screen was a testimony that most fans forgave and forgot and showed up to celebrate what Favre did to help resurrect the organization.

Looking forward to going to the Legends game tomorrow in Madison and seeing some oldies and goodies....Dorsey Levens, William Henderson, Andre Rison, Antonio Freeman, Javon Walker, Mark Chmura, Al Harris, Gilbert Brown and more. I wish they could play the game at Lambeau, but how perfect for me....Camp Randall was the first time I saw Favre play at a preseason game and will be the last time I see him play. My daughter made some awesome t-shirts for us to wear!

Nice to hear from you! I thought Favre did a good job of reminding everyone why for years fans felt such a connection with him. I thought Holmgren was great. I was at the last Milwaukee game, and never tire of hearing him or Favre talk about it.

Some people don't like Favre, and that's just the way it is. But I think he and the Packers organization have done a good job of repairing things to where the terrible summer of 2008 doesn't dictate the relationship between Favre and the Packers.

Ahh, the Bert haircut - that's a classic bowl cut:

Holy crap, you're still alive! I only watched Holmgren and that 'interview' in the stadium so far. Seemed pretty nice, but the 'interview' was kinda strange. Having Greta out there would have been a nice touch.

Next year, big party down in Canton.

That picture with Greta made me cringe a little bit. Favre's interview with her was one of the really low points of 2008.

[red]

i guess this was the proper amount of time

i was furious at him when he went to the queens, but last night i was tearing up and laughing and smiling through the whole thing,

welcome home brett

Yeah, she was on the field with the family to during the public event in the Stadium. Weird. But so was Bus Cook.

Saw Winters intro, liked that a lot, but thought the highlight reel was missing some of his best plays. They had Kittrick Taylor and Sharpe in the Lions playoff game, but missed some others. With two public events, they probably had to be careful, but the only other highlight I loved and didn't expect was the TD to Ahman Green off a bootleg where the DE had caught and was sacking Brett, so he tossed an underhanded shovel pass to him.

Saw only beginning of Favre's speech, had to drive home, but I'm fine with that. Don't want to spend a day parsing what was said, Twitter was headed down that road until Werder spoke to Favre about Ted. Just glad its not going to be a Bradshaw situation.

And welcome back 007!

Yeah, I was, too......guess I'll have to blame Deanna for everything now.



Anybody else notice how smug she looked during the ceremony?? Or, how the camera seemed to continually land on TT, when he was conspicuously absent from Favre's Thank-a-thon???
