Where do the Favre lovers stand on Favre being a Viking?

[woodbuck27]

Until this summer I didn't realize how many Packer fans are just plain ass losers.

There's a reason for that, you know.

Who's the receiver in the middle of that shot at about the 38 yard line moving from right to left across the field? Dare I observe that he's wide open?

Why did Favre freeze on Driver? Really! How do we answer such questions or judge the QB's decision or to ignore the option?

PACKERS!

In fairness to Favre, that photo is after he has released the ball. There is another I have seen that is earlier, and the shorter routes don't look as open. As for the deep route on the left, as I recall there wasn't a clear throwing lane open for that. The route he picked may not be as open as others, but I have always felt it really wasn't a bad decision as much as a poor throw that caused the interception.

Yes ideally. Driver has to get outside and Favre hit him close to the side line and over his head. The coverage is too close for all of that.

Also. Tough conditions on that day and then there was the pressure and fatigue factor.

In hindsight the play to the middle of the field sure looks like the best option, but where it ends up and goes from there wasn't managed I'll bet. The 'what made you try that throw' exercise.

PACKERS!

I hope John David Booty refuses to give up his #4 jersey.

I think that is unlikely, as a last resort the Vikings would either reassign his number themselves or trade him to free it up......

Why are they keeping Jackson over Booty? Is Booty any good at all? Is Jackson that bad?

Couldn't agree more. Bad pass, decision wasn't bad at the time of the throw... u could post a photo like this on almost every QB's pass and there would be guys open after he lets the ball go. Its just another way losers will bitch about Brett Favre

Wasn't it first down? ** A better decision would have been to throw it way IMO.

There I got rid of that photo.

and. . . ** It certainly wouldn't be to make that throw.

Are we?

I wonder sometimes.

[dissident94]

I just don't understsand the obsession with some on here over Favre. We have different opinions over how it was handled last year. I personally think they all acted like ego maniacs.

Overall I think the Packers will be better in the long run going with Rodgers. We had maybe 2 more years with Favre and I personally would have kept him as long as possible but Rodgers looks like he could be really good so I am fine with it.

But shoudl Favre play again. Thats up to him and if a team wants him. Like I said before it is entertainment business. It isn't war, there are no traders. If you are too loyal in sports you lose.

Some of you have to let it go. I have. I was upset at Green Bay for the way they handled everything but have since let it go.

IMO - no we don't. We have every right to hold on to it if we want to, just like Brett has every right to try and keep playing if he wants to.

HH. What do we get him? A limo or a cab to get HIM outta town?

I think Favre should wear number 2. He's half the player he used to be

lol

Nobody knows who they'll keep but I would guessthey keep Booty....I was just commenting on HH's comment.


Interesting question is this, can a team reassign a number without the player's permission? I would think so, they are the ones assigning them I would guess.


Patler, any idea?

Rastak I have a question.

What happened with AD's decision to put on weight? Did he go through with it?

[Rastak]

He came in a pound lighter I believe after losing some body fat (he was already pretty lean) . So much for that plan I guess.

ive evloved so much in that regard and i credit wisdom and life experiences; my first love has cancer for crying out loud! so who cares if the lakers win nba champ (life-long celtics fan thanks to larry joe bird and always HATED l.a.)

a client's father of mine made a very interesting point last month....i asked him who his team was in the nfl. he replied "whoever wins because they were the ones who rose to the occassion." he said he doesnt get personally invested like some fanatics because theres so many more importnt things in our lives to consider

i know most posters wont be converted but i hope folks can learn to keep pro sports in perspective and just reflect on the excitement that lord favre brought us and keep it moving

I really have no idea, but you do see number changes announced at times, especially if a player changes positions. Whether is is done only with the players consent, or at the players request, I really don't know. However, from a locker room aspect, I can't imagine a team ever taking away a number without consent just to give it to a player they are bringing in. It just wouldn't be good precedent, and could cause resentment. I think it is more important in the NFL, where we see them as their number when they play, because the uniforms are so neutralizing.
