Romo to play Sunday?

[mmmdk]

Oh shit! I didn't know it was definitively true.

Wow, an article saying they dont talk. Man, talk about stirring up drama. That should be National Inquirer news not USA today.

What run over your liver, Mad?

Brett is a prick for not calling an old team mate and calling a cowpuke. Even if the cowpuke involved stems from Cheeseland.

th87 isn't "starting" anything. He (AND I) are merely observers. I don't know why you're going after him over this.

My liver is fine. The lungs might be getting jacked up though.

I recall reading where Romo and Favre would speak a few times during the season. Maybe Favre likes something about him who knows. But to call him on not calling Rodgers about being injured is insane and ridiculous in my mind. Could it be perceived as shit talking? Maybe reminding ARod what the standard in Green Bay at QB is? Maybe he is pressuring ARod to play through an injury when ARod is already feeling a huge monkey on his back about missing a game??? You think about it that way and in this situation Favre cannot call Rodgers.

Youre right I shouldn't be going after TH on this, I should be going after both of you. You are crazy and will take flight without notice but I am extremely surprised TH hasn't seen the big picture on this like he usually does. Either way I just dont see how you both can realistically expect that call to happen. I would bet Rodgers wouldn't want the call anyways.

Brett is a star (or sun god) with sunshine coming out of his a@@; hence he provides the photosynthesis giving Wisconsin life. A lot of stars live in their Mickey Mouse bubble worlds and think the world of themselves; Brett has become Mickey Mouse. And Mad is right about one thing; Rodgers doesn't give sh!t about Favre not calling. Nota bene; Rodgers could join Brett one day, time will tell, but he's nowhere near a Mickey Mouse world as of now.

Personally; I don't care about the Brat Favre Mickey Mouse world one bit.

I'm with Shatner: Get a life!

Well, in my mind, Brett not calling A-Rod and calling Romo is crapola.

In fact, everything Brett didn't do with A-Rod sucks.

He is prepared to mentor a cowpuke, but not a Packer?? Did Majic-Man ignore Favre, too? Is that where he lea´rned how to be a dick?

I respect all of Favre's achievements, but the guy is really pissing me off with his anti-Packers stance of late.

Whether you agree or not Favre thinks the Packers shit all over him; it would greatly surprise me if he gave AROD a call.

[GBRulz]

My God, who gives a shit if Favre did or didn't called Aaron? Do you know for a fact that he didn't? What's next...people thinking it's double crapola because Favre didn't call Hasselbeck? I mean, they were teammates, too.

[Zool]

My God, who gives a shit if Favre did or didn't called Aaron?

I'm gonna go with.....ESPN and Sprint/Verizon.

Congratulations! You are the winner of the common sense award. No one should care.

Re: Romo to play Sunday?

From PFT:

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who suffered a broken pinkie on Sunday and who was supposed to miss four-to-five weeks, has informed coaches that he plans to play on Sunday, according to Matt Mosley of ESPN.com.

Romo didn’t practice on Wednesday, but threw balls on the side. Eyewitnesses told Mosley that Romo threw the ball with “good velocity” and “appeared confident.”

The final decision apparently will be made by someone other than Romo. For his part, however, he’s apparently willing to try to play.

The Cowboys face the Rams on Sunday in St. Louis.

Wishful thinking

Duh! If not...I'll be forced to start Matt Ryan...assuming I get him tomorrow b/c it's pending.

Better hope you have a better waiver position than I do

I'm history but I'm just going to be the pest that makes things harder on everybody else.

BTW, I want Slaton Back; Grant has been a bum

I guess Ballhawk beat me to Matt Ryan. Sorry about Grant...but Slaton is treating me rather well.

Hopefully Grant rebounds and has a kick ass season from here on out and scores you a million points. By the way...why did you dump Marvin Harrison?

[Zool]

Oh yeah? Well I drafted Matt Ryan.....Let that soak in for a minute then ask why I'm 2-4.

I care. And if I had any common sense why would I hang here?

So in your esteemed opinion, Favre should:

1) Call Arod because they were teammates (Arod took his job and I doubt Deanna has Arod's Xmas cards near the top of the list in a month or two, regardless.)
2) Not call Romo because they, the Cowboys, are rivals of the Packers (Favre does not play for GB anymore, so why should he care?)
3) Just whither and die (because he caused you such distress in how he dealt with TT over his job, not yours.)

Makes perfect sense. Awesome post as usual Tarlam. Please email me a memo as we are just dying to get tips on how to be better posters. Thank you sir!

Some might argue that Favre gave his job away.

If the Favres hold any animosity at all toward Aaron Rodgers for what transpired, they would be very, very petty. Rodgers had nothing to do with it, other than preparing himself the best that he could, which is what any professional athlete should do.

I'm not insinuating that Brett should have/or does have animosity towards Arod, far the contraire...I'm saying that that if they weren't great buddies, why should Brett have to call him. Should he call everyone? Seems like it was blown out of proportion on who he should/shouldn't call is all. I think Brett respects Arod but doesn't go out of his way because he doesn't have to.

Patler, I love your posts, your logic defies most of logic known to average folk like us...you are great but hear me out..lol.

If you were moving houses tommorow, it would not make sense for you to expect me to help you move vs. if I had a buddy I grew up with who was moving. Tarlam was implying it was sheisty to turn your back on Arod and call Romo. Would you be mad if I didn't help you move even though I respect your posting, yet helped a buddy I grew up with move? You shouldn't yet that is what I was getting at. Favre and Arod weren't the best of pals, but it seems they respected each other. For another poster to imply that Favre was malicious to call one QB and not another is ridiculous....as I'm sure that you can understand the logic behind that.

So are you suggesting that Favre and Romo ARE buddies?

Yes..at least more-so than Favre and Arod are...They are both rednecks and have the common bond.

[Tarlam!]

You really want to pick a fight with me snake? You sure about this?

I have no issues with you critising anything I post, but if you want to get personal

Awesome post as usual Tarlam. Please email me a memo as we are just dying to get tips on how to be better posters. Thank you sir!

I think we need to take the gloves off.

What you posted is in direct conflict to the spirit of PackerRats.

You are a little girl around here. Nobody cares for your opinions and your posts are incredibly immature. You have ticked off a good many posters with your dribble and your hogging the board in the middle of the night has turned off people to the point where you have been called out for it.

Slither back into some safe hiding place snake. You won't be missed, I guarantee that.

[Fritz]

This is a totally sexist thing to say - I know that and expect to perhaps rightfully take some hits for it - but I'm gonna say it anyway:

This whole thing about who Brett called and didn't call and if he likes Tony better than Aaron because he's mad at Aaron for taking his job - does this not ring exactly like the kind of crap junior high school girls would talk about?

I boycott all ESPN cvommentary and any ESPN show that is not a sporting event I want to watch. Honest to god, it's like a frickin' soap opera there any more.
