It's Official: Favre is the enemy

[MOBB DEEP]

i truly believe that favre will get his fair share of cheers when he enters lambeau. esp. if the pack's record is as good as it should be

im rough on the opposition when watchn games at home but in public i try to enjoy the event w/o getn too emotional to the point im embarassed or embarass others...kids DEF shouldnt hear obsenities imo

This ain't no kids game. There is a huge difference between booing a professional football team and booing a 7-year old.

Now hold on, if the 7 year old doesn't run out a ground ball or goes out of bounds to avoid a hit, I think there's grounds to boo.

(Edit correct source of quote)

You don't understand where the line becomes clear? You don't see the difference between booing a professional team and throwing batteries at people? I personally don't boo anyone (I may have to make an exception soon), but I don't begrudge others who have paid one hell of a lot of money to be there from being heard--toward the team. And keep your beer, fists and projectiles to yourself. (can't imagine why anyone'd throw stadium beer anyway, expensive as it is.)

There's never an excuse to throw beer. Beer must also be continuously monitored to avoid spillage. Any unfortunate and accidental spillage must be responded to by implementing a mourning and grieving period of at least fifteen minutes. It is perfectly acceptable to address this grief with additional beer.

Maybe I missed the memo. We don't burn churches anymore?

I'd like a piece of that action.

I guess soon enough we'll find out which Packer fans have class and which ones don't.

IMO any Packer fan that boo's and yells foul comments to opposing teams lacks class. Cheer for your team, when offense is on field cheer for the O, when defense is on field cheer for the D to make the stop.

People who partake in negativity (booing and screaming at the opposing team) are no better than those who would do the same thing at their kids games, or Philly fans lol!

Real Packer fans know how to handle themselves at a game, despite what a few of the haters around here seem to think They certainly do not represent Packer Nation.

This ain't no kids game. There is a huge difference between booing a professional football team and booing a 7-year old. And Philly fans do not have a no-class rep for booing the other team. It's for booing their own. The fact that they assault opposing fans may have something to do with it as well. Trash talk is one thing, but they take things too far.

Where's the line drawn then? and by whom... what's acceptable to one may be way over the line for others. Why be negative at all and not root on your own team.

If you haven't grown thick enough skin to be able to handle mild public criticism such as booing, perhaps you should find a new line of work where you aren't in front of 70k screaming critics while on the job, while at the same time being filmed for potentially hundreds of thousands or more who are not there in person to critique you.

Why be negative? Because we hate the guys on the other sideline and we're gonna let them know it. Because it's a rivalry. Because the emotional investment is a significant part of what we look forward to in Green Bay Packer football. So we boo with all our might, while cheering our own team at the same time. It's all part of the experience.

FAIL

Maybe you should follow your own advice.

Gex, quit being a damn wimp!!

Like Ziggy said, I wouldn't throw beer! The price of the darn things at stadiums is ridiculous. I paid $6.50 for a small plastic bottle of ML at Miller Park last month when we were up in WI renting a student apartment for the summer at UWGB.

I couldn't have said it any better, Gex !

I maintain that complete silence upon Favre's entrance would be the best response of all.

That would suck for him!

Hand out the newspapers as we did back in high school at basketball games?
