I'm going to be there Sunday (got tickets)

[RashanGary]

I'm so excited. A lot of things I believe about life go into this game. Favre has a charisma, a way about him, that people can't resist. People love him so much and believe in him so much that they want to see Ted Thompson's life ruined. Ted Thompson is such a good person. He's not the type of charismatic leader that people can't help but follow based on his act, but he is the type of truly good person that once people know what he's about, they want to follow. The way Favre can lead with lies and distortion is scary to me.

This is genuine goodness up against charismatic manipulation. This is true care about other people against complete selfishness. This match means so much to me. I'm here, I fight the Favre stuff, but I don't dislike anyone. I love people, even people who can't see reality and do the wrong thing because of it. For all I know, maybe I'm that guy, but I believe really strongly in what I see and I support what I believe in.

I am going to boo my heart out. I'm going to be completely sober because I want to fully experience this game and if a drunk Favre fan swings at me, I want to have the wherewithal to defend myself.

For everyone that hates me because I can't stand Brett Favre, I wish we could all be friends. You wish I wouldn't be so disgusted by that powerful, charismatic man. I wish you woudln't be so brainwashed by that selfish, evil man. In the end, this is it. As a fan of what is good, I am pulling strongly for these Packers. This is going to be the best experience I can imagine as a Packer fan. Whatever happens, I'm going to be proud to support this team and proud to be at this game.

This is what is wrong about human nature against waht is right about human nature.

Favre is evil?

[PackerTimer]

Favre is evil?

Apparently very evil

[RashanGary]

Not evil, but a very powerful and recently harmful person. He thinks everything he's doing is right, so no, not evil. He's what is wrong with human nature. He's what happens when a person loses all humility. He's naturally charismatic and through that, along with his football talent, he's gained a lot of power through the public. With that power, he's damaged good peoples lives.

So no, not evil at all. Just a person in a really bad place, with selfish intentions and an attitude that anyone who gets in his way deserves whatever they get.

The Packers winning will feel like we beat that part of human nature.

EDIT: just saw where I used that word, quickly typed, not what I meant.

[PackerTimer]

I think we should keep this from the players. I think added pressure of fighting the ugly side of mankind would be tough to overcome.

[Rastak]

Dude, you might want to get a grip. Geez.


Favre is NOT powerful. He's a friggen athlete on a football field....nothing more nothing less. He never affected a single thing about my life when he played for GB, NY or Minnesota. It's a game. Obama has power. Putin has power. Favre is an aging QB on a football team. He has NO power.

How has he ruined peoples lives? It's obvious the dude can't make up his damn mind. TT called him on it and ditched him. Who has the power? TT, that's who when it comes to football. TT made what looks like the right call and traded the dude.

The players do have certain negotiated rights and when they exercise them they are hardly asses for doing so. Is Reggie White an ass for leaving the Eagles?

Chilly called the dude up after training camp and probably said "we're screwed, the guys we have aren't going to get it done, will you reconsider and give it a try for one more year?"

Big deal! He signed to play one more year.

This is NOT some stupid good vs evil struggle. It's a damn football game.

Don't come here and try to put us off our guard.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Favre is evil?

Yes, he's VERY evil

[mraynrand]

Come over here, Mr. Bigglesworth!

[RashanGary]

The people who were effected by the things he did, it wasn't right and he thinks it was OK.

Going on Greta to tell about how dishonest Ted was, that was a power play. Favre had the power of the people. If there was an ounce of wrong that coudl have been dug up on Ted, Favre would have burried him. Thompson's squeeky clean life, stood up to Favre trying to take him down. Favre had more power than Thompson at that point, but Thompson is gaining power because people are seeing what happened.

I want the Packers to win. I believe in Ted Thompson so much and even more I believe in what he stands for and what I view as his intentions. I want to see true good intentions win over charisma driven power. I root for Ted and against Brett.

Selfishness, arrogance, greed, dishonestly. Those are the things Brett Favre stands for, the things that I feel can be beaten out of him if we humble him by beating him.

I think it's a futile effort to beat those things out of him, but it should be done, just to be absolutely certain.

[Rastak]

Of course you want your team to win. Makes perfect sense.

My last comment is this. You don't know who really said what any better than I do. At this point I'm surprised anyone still cares really. I know both sides said afterwards they wished they'd have done some things differently.

Anyway, why hang on to this stuff? In football terms it's ancient history.

[MadtownPacker]

Wow, strong words from someone who can be a weak person at times. Funny how you speak of humbling and rightousness but you basically have not been so cool yourself. You speak of beating Favre but the truth is M3 only makes things even by winning this game. BTW - TT shouldn't be blamed for anything. Stubby is the one that is not that great.
