Predict the Favre Quotes Tonight

[Packers4Ever]

Please. That was not an above average intervew. That was a disgusting exhibition of Buck sucking Favre's dick. It was exacty what I predicted becuase Buck doesn't have a pair. That is why I mentioned Bob Costas. Bob isn't afraid to confront athletes with real queations.

Yes, but Brett is. Brett's choice of interviewers should tell you all you need to know.

Breaking news...hard hitting favre interview with Larry King scheduled.

Ty can't wait to find out what Brett's favorite color is!

Hey Ty, let us know when that Larry King interview is scheduled, would ya please ?? Thanx !

Paco, you are kidding yourself if you believe that TT or anyone else in the Packers organization is satisfied with 6 wins. Nothing the Packers have done this offseason suggests they are okay with just 6 wins. It's a pretty lame argument to make that TT is okay with however many wins he has, so long as he can scout the next incoming class of NFL rookies. Very lame indeed.

not his highest priority... would rather look like a genius picking the next sleeper IMO

Paco, Gunakor is correct, I just read about GMs etc...being let go when the Win-Loss balance is way off too many times - like their 6-10 year. I was on another Forum this afternoon and it came up for discussion. Only makes sense that the Exec. Board will take that for only so long.

The argument that TT would rather fail miserably - and lose his job! - just to 'stick it to Favre' or 'look like a genius' has become, over time, one of those completely over-the-top beliefs that Favre supporters, by chanting like a mantra, have made themselves actually believe.
At the root of it all lies one simple truth : these folks are Brett Favre idolizers - even more than Packer fans - who completely believe :
a. he can never do anything wrong
b. all failures can be attributed to someone else
c. he deserves no criticism - EVER

Therefore, anyone who ever does anything perceived as a slight to him, like TT, who finally had enough of his act and moved on for the betterment of the team, or posters who refuse to worship him by insisting on judging him objectively, draw their 'true believer' ire.
And even if Thompson's Packers win a Super Bowl, that will not change.
It's really pretty useless to attempt to reason with them.

With this post and the one defending gunakor..can't tell if you are fucking with or just naive. Either way, Ty is smitten.

MJ...there is competition now!!

Where's Bretsky? He's been given the perfect set-up here. Better than Abbott for Costello or McMahon for Carson.

Go Bretsky!

Still, Favre's overall point - that time heals all wounds (though it also wounds all heels) - is well taken.

I'm sure some people will forgive him for putting on that filthy purple jersey. But I won't. Once a traitor - always a traitor.

Couldn't have said it better.

Traitor!?

NO!!

Favre is a professional athlete that gave all he could to the Green Bay Packers as long as he was wanted. He always said " he would be a Packer as long as he was wanted" and he thought he could still as a QB contribute to wins. Last season the Green Bay Packer organization said no more to Favre as a Packer. The Packer organization moved on as did Brett Favre.

Favre proved he could still play at a high level and win with nine more added to his all time best total. I suspect he still feels he has some in the tank, and with a solid team like the Vikings, an excellent opportunity to prolong his career with a team that may 'in fact' desire his skills.

What any of the above, in all common sense has to do with a comparison of Brett Favre 'the Pro NFL QB' and Favre as a traitor to the Packer organization that tried to retire him prematurely is way beyond my sensabilities.

Time for people on this forum to see it straight up and get set for what may be some really fine contests between the Packers and the Vikings this season. It just can't nor won"t get any better if Favre does become a Viking in terms of 'the rivalry' in 'just a Pro sport' ladies and gentleman.

We're not talking war here. It's just sports.

GO PACKERS!

[woodbuck27]

So because Paco does not fall in line and 100% agree with you robots he is not a fan. That is a load of SHIT,beleive it or not people can think for themselves.

Thank you!


I'm not exactly sure how I feel. I was raised to want the Packers to win no matter what but I also watched a man for 16 years pour his heart out for Green Bay Packers football. Now some yahoo comes in here and decided for me when that was going to end? To me, that's not right. Do I have to live with it? Of course... but I DO NOT have to agree with it. I am a believer that there is a lot more to the story that dealed with a few years of the TT/Favre relationship. It also doesn't make it easier when our GM, so far, is a failure. You can feed me that bullshit 13-3 speech if you'd like, but his record is proven and his inability to put together playoff teams year in year out is proven.. again, so far. And that's where the dilemma comes in.

If I support Brett on the Vikings, to most I am not a Packers fan. Its a great thing that I don't give a shit what people say because I don't see it that way. I've wavered back and forth but it comes down to, can I deal with the Vikings being good for a season to get vengeance at TT? If you asked me right now, I'd say ya.. I could. But I also think its cuz I hang around this message board and read all the dumb, unnecessary, immature, stupid shit about Brett. So maybe when the season comes around and I'm watching Packer football again, my mind will change. Hell, its already changed a thousand times on the issue...

I like your courage man. Stay true to yourself. It isn't an easy position to be in for any Packer fan that feels warmth still for Brett Favre. There are people on this board that want to slam anyone that is split on the issue of Favre once a Packer and now deciding to continue playing elsewhere. It's clear to me that in the end. The Green Bay Packers were willing to see this risk of who gets the last laugh.

I certainly won't fall for the scenario of it being anything to do with a grudge between Favre and Ted Thompson. The Green Bay Packers let Favre go after a terrific season in 2007. He was runner up for the MVP and overall played extremeely well.

Favre deserves our respect to want to return to be an NFL QB and nothing less IMO. To let emotions fly in the face of that is foolish to immature. It's time for people here to grow up. Take a deep breath. Just relax and look forward to some exciting football. Favre won't play forever. If Favre joins the Vikings or not it's still the Packer GM and coach's job to see our team beat their best efforts this season.

It's noone's job or even common sense to witness any member of this board beat up on another member over Brett Favre's GOD given right to play football anywhere in the NFL as a FA.

GO PACK GO!

I propose the following bright line test for "true fan of the packers".

If the season has not started yet, and you are entertaining the notion of "wanting a division rival to defeat the Packers this year", you are not truly a Packer fan.

And you know what? It's okay to not be a Packer fan, there are 6 billion people on the planet and most of them aren't Packer fans. I think the thing that's being illustrated in the last few years of Favrestravaganza that there are a lot of people who were under the impression that they were Packer fans, but they were primarily Brett Favre fans and they only cheered for the Packers because that's where Favre played. You know what? That's okay too.

Wanting an ex-Packer to succeed and current members of the Packers organization to fail is a fairly clear sign of "Fan of a player, less so a team."

Straight up solid post.

[woodbuck27]

how many here will do their "own thing" and rub folk the wrong way and risk being ostracized or fired in their "field" in order to stand for something?

But what does he stand for? Is this a victory for fans of spite and selfish behavior everywhere?

he's obviously a status quo guy.....so i guess thats what he stands for...he's not tryn to elicit any painstaking feelings in these guys, he's not limbaugh fat tail

shows like that are more about showcasing players like favre, manning, brady and keeping things light (with the iconic players)

being cutting edge and TRULY probing isnt in the job description for these cats (buck, et. al.)

too me its good enough that he had favre address the waffling issue in the manner that he did...i mean were people expecting favre to really discuss his disdain for TT? what athlete is really asked to be that transparent? folk walk on egg shells not only with favre

not sayn he's super profound or that his style cant be criticized, im just sayn be fair..i dont think buck is a schmuck; interview was above average imo; toughed on a myriad of topics/all u can ask for in mainstream media

Please. That was not an above average intervew. That was a disgusting exhibition of Buck sucking Favre's dick. It was exacty what I predicted becuase Buck doesn't have a pair. That is why I mentioned Bob Costas. Bob isn't afraid to confront athletes with real queations.

What a sweet guy.

I agree with Joemailman that this is the best team the Packers have had in over 5 years (including 13-3).

Raji replaces Corey Williams
Jenkins is back (starting over Michael nobody Montgomery from last year)
Harrell is finally healthy

The DL looks to have gotten it's depth back. Last year that hurt us badly.

ST's were a huge issue a year ago. I thought they'd be great last year and absolutely stunk. That will go a long way toward determining the season. If they're great, the Packers should win a lot of games. If the ST's is horrible, it's going to be tough to win.

All in all, I love the look of this team. They're young but experienced. They appear to have depth on the DL. They don't appear to have any glaring weaknesses. I like the new coordinator. I think it was a great hire. I like that they appear to have gotten tougher. I like that Rodgers has a season under his belt rather than starting his first game.

I'm very excited for this season. I can't wait for the preseason games to get rolling.

I like your enthusiasm and positivity JH. Great stuff. One of the most forward posts in this thread. I like your overall fine contribution to our forum also.

JH. I watched you struggle two years ago but you've grown man. Congratulations Packer fan.

GO PACKERS!

If you haven't made any kind of emotional investment in the Packers, you are free to feel this way if you'd like. To many of us, who have made that investment, it's not just a sport or a rivalry. It's part of life. And we feel betrayed. That's how we feel.

If you lived here, you'd probably better understand. Of all the franchises in all of sport, the Green Bay Packers ARE the fans, the fans ARE the Packers, and you'd be hard pressed to find another organization in any professional sport that comes close in that regard. When a long time Packer legend chooses to spite the Packers, and makes a point of spiting the Packers, we all feel betrayed. You don't have to. But don't suggest that we can't or shouldn't.

Time for people on this forum to see it straight up and get set for what may be some really fine contests between the Packers and the Vikings this season.

I am fully prepared for some really fine contests between the Packers and the Vikings even without Favre. You make it sound certain that Favre would be the key to making the Vikings contenders. The Vikings are contenders without Favre, just as I feel the Packers are contenders without Favre. I am completely satisfied with the level of excitement that game will bring, whether Favre plays or not.
