Report: “Favre Can’t Stand Green Bay”

[ThunderDan]

Pete,
While I agree that it get's old from people using the "I can't beleive your a packer fan" line. I usally consider the source,these are the same types that love to rip Favre and pimp TT. Without Brett the Packers would be no where the great team they are. Also without brett TT would not look like he is even a somewhat competent exec,which imo he is far from.

You better tell that to Curly, Vince and Bart and the other HOF Packers and the 10 plus league championships.

Respect the opinion but my beef isnt that TT doesnt know talent. He's pretty good on the drafting aspect of football. Could he be better, well yes. He really hasn't hit on that dominating player yet but maybe thats Raji or Matthews or someone else. My problem with TT has been the aspect of not adding missing pieces in other ways. People wanna throw out excuse after excuse for him but he has a losing record. He has had plenty of time now to win and if he doesnt, he should be gone. The Favre fiasco was just my breaking point about TT because you just don't do what he did. But we'll that that subject alone.

That's why GB is called Titletown, because of the last 17 years. Hell, not even the last 30 years.

He no ones dissing the Packers of the old but come on, this team wasn't even on the map anymore before Brett/Holmy/Wolf got here. Ya we had a couple exciting players but the national media coulda gave two shits less about us. Favre and Co. brought this team back to mattering to a lot of people and re-energized a city/state/nation of Packer fans. If you don't wanna realize that, then just wait til this team goes bad again sometime in the future and you'll wish we were in the 90's again.

Every team starts the season 0-0. Green Bay has just as good a chance as anyone to win the division. How about a little optimism, eh? That Green and Gold kool aid is delicious this time of year. I would highly reccomend it to any Packer fan in May. It's alot easier to be optimistic in May when the records are even than in December when you are 2 games back with 3 to go. Try it. You might find a bit of happiness in doing so. Nobody likes a pessimist.

Gunakor... NOT EVERYONE IS LIKE YOU. Man, I've read post after post from you the last day and all of em makes you seem as though people should conform to how you think about things. Maybe someone see's more talent on the Vikings roster and believes they'll be better.. who the fuck cares my man. Stop sticking your nose up at people though, its getting rather old. Have your opinion and leave it at that but quit using the "oh I cant believe youre a Packer fan" line and think you're better than other people.. its ridiculous.

I never said nor implied that I was better than anyone else. I just asked that people keep their comments positive, because I don't come here to read a bunch of crap about how the Packers aren't good enough or how Brett is gonna make us feel sorry for letting him go. But, for you, I will disappear for awhile. See everyone in August when there's something better to talk about than how much better the goddamn Vikings are than us, or how Favre is going to prove his point. Peace.

Wow man, good riddance.

There was no need for you jump all over packerarcher. I disagree with most of what he says, but just because he's a packer fan doesn't mean he has to be a complete homer. If you are leaving because you don't want to read someone post that they think the vikings have a better team than us right now, that is your problem.

I think Gunakor has been more than reasonable in this thread, and the forum is lessened for his departure. I think people jumping all over him are frankly being ridiculous. How thin skinned are we?

Some people do not take differing opinions well. Gunk was stating his opinion same as everyone else.

Don't stay gone too long G....we need ya and your good attitude around here. Its lacking.

His opinion wasnt the problem in my eyes. It was that his opinion was the only way you can be a "Packer fan" that was the problem. So what if people differ on opinions, thats gonna happen. It was his stuck up attitude that I, nor did a couple take a liking to. He didn't have to leave, that was his own choice.

Right, which is why I hope he comes back soon. I much prefer to read educated level headed posts which he has in spades.

Also have you noticed since all this BS bitching and bickering that Waldo has been rarely heard from? All this shit drives a lot of (IMO) good posters away. I've been saying this for like 2 years now.

For the record, I don't see how or where I jumped all over Packerarcher. I didn't realize that asking people to be optimistic was such a problem. I really didn't. I apologize if I've personally offended anyone by asking for that. It certainly wasn't my intention.

I just thought, if everyone could remain optimistic, that there'd be no bickering or arguing like there has been the last couple of days.

I think he was more trying to point out a potential inconsistency in other people's way of thinking. If Brett Favre really, intensely, wants revenge on the Green Bay Packers to the point that he's going to play for an archrival just for 2 shots at his old team, it does set up some situations where it's impossible to support both Favre and the Packers.

It's not much of a stretch to say that to be a true Packer fan, you have to want the Packers to win their games.

Maybe there are those who want the packers to win their games but can also look at a roster and say oh, they are probably more talented than us. Why is that a hard concept to think outside the Green Bay Packers? Why can we not have a discussion and if someone says one bad thing about the Pack, we are fighting. That doesnt have to be the case but for oversensitive Packer fans, it is. Hell, I think the Vikings are going to have a better team this season, does that make me less of a Packer fan? Does that mean I dont want the Packers to win all 16+ games this season? Its completely stupid to think that just because some posters think everything has to have a positive spin, we can't have a discussion on the message boards.
