    Harvel gone?

    lost in all the favre hype

    i saw a tidbit on pft, that must have been posted yesterday saying harvel is gone from the GBPG

    anyone know anymore on this?

    FAVRE MIGHT BE BACK, BUT HAVEL APPARENTLY WON'T BE

    First Barbaro, now this?

    One of the worst-kept secrets in league circles is that Chris Havel and the Green Bay Press-Gazette have parted ways.

    Details are very sketchy regarding the manner in which the relationship ended, but several sources with knowledge of the situation have advised us that Havel is no longer working there.

    We got into an e-mail battle with Havel last year regarding his failure to disclose in an interview with Brett Favre that he has written two books with him. A link to the back-and-forth with Havel is right here.

    With that said, the paper's web site still lists Havel as an employee. But it appears based on a search of Google News that his most recent column was published on January 7.

    Press-Gazette sports editor Mike Vandermause has not responded to our e-mail or voice message to him seeking official confirmation of Havel's status. (Ewwww, that sounds like "real" journalism.)

    Gee, maybe the guy who covers the packers took a vacation at the end of the season?

    Maybe he is working on a book or special edition.

    This is the time of the year to be away.

    The PFT guys just hate him because he says nice things about Brett.

      He does a radio show here in Green Bay every evening on 107.5 the Fan and is introduced as Press Gazette columnist Chris Havel. Just a case of him not writing lately not being fired. I'm sure this will come up on tonights show along with the #4 excitement.

        Interesting. He's the opposite of Uncle Cliffy.

          Maybe he's been fired but nobody has told him yet. And maybe he's a Packer Rat. Ouch.

                  He acts like him and Brett are best buds, that was why PFT.com picked on him in regards to washing Brett's golfBALLS last offseason.

                        They still list him as a writer and have his old columns.

                        When they can you, you become an "unperson".

                          Havel's name has been removed from the GBPG's contact list.

                          Like most writers for the GBPG, Havel's a lightweight. Captain of the obvious, you learn nothing from reading his columns.

                          Christl, McGinn and Silverstein, like them or not, are far superior to any of the Press Gazette's writers.

                          from Christl's chat today :

                          "Q: Carl of Elk Mound - Cliff, what happened to Chris Havel at the GBPG?

                          A: Cliff Christl - He was fired."
                          more freedom, less government. Go Sarah!
