    PFT says false Favre alarm (I thought so)

    FALSE ALARM ON FAVRE?

    After further review, it now appears that Brett Favre's Wednesday press conference is simply a standard, weekly media get-together.

    The root of the problem was that KSTP-TV in Minneapolis sold the thing as an unusual, out-of-the-norm event with this post from a couple of hours ago:

    "Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre will hold a news conference at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday in the Lambeau Field media auditorium.

    "There's no indication at this point what the legendary Packer quarterback is going to announce. The Packers lost their first preseason game of the year by two touchdowns to the San Diego Chargers."

    As it turns out, he's not expected to "announce" anything.

    Sheesh. You'd think that a TV station in a rival's market not far from Wisconsin would know this.

              I know I posted this on the other PC thread, but just incase anyone might have missed it.... this is our CBS station and they always carry live feeds of PC's. Much less traffic than Packers.com and IMO, a better quality video...

                    Maybe in a Utopian football world. But, it's time to face facts. There's Packer news here because Packer fans are taking over. The mass migration of young adults moving to the twin cities from towns all over western Wisconsin is taking its toll on the local Viking population. Just like the Saxons slowly took over England from the Britons in the early Dark Ages, so too are Packer fans conquering Viking Land. We shall eventually, through immigration and breeding, drive them out. There are Packer reports in the sports pages, and Packer bars all over(including one in the heart of the capital).
                    Having moved to Minneapolis, I can say this is a great place to live, except for all the damn Viking fans

                        That is flat out bad journalism. You hear Favre has a 12:00 press confrence and run to you computer and put on your site that Favre is retiring because he has a press confrence. No journalistic investigation before you throw it on your site, no scanning the Packers web site to see he has the same confrence every week, no checking around the league to hear if anything big is stirring. What a joke!

                          Woody,

                          Do you realize you posted the EXACT same article that Rastak started the thread with?
                          "There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
