Favre is comming back!!!

[swede]

No surprised other then it being announced before the draft. Maybe TT already has a teams to trade with?

I agree, Mad.

I also think that if TT has targeted one of the quarterbacks that Favre's return will probably have no bearing on what TT does at #5. If he really likes VY. let's say, then how would Favre's coming back change anything? He'll still pick VY. ARod--as he has said himself, somewhat surprisingly, would be the odd man out whose days in Greeen Bay are numbered.

Could ARod be involved in a draft day trade now?

I'm going to save up my pennies so I can get me some tickets to see Favre when he comes to Ford Field next fall. I'm taking my daughter with me, so she can say, someday, that she had a chance to see the great Brett Favre in person.

He's back. As anguished as I - and a lot of us - were, it was worth the wait.

Now if TT can work some draft day magic (get a second rounder for JWalk, trade down and get some extra second/third round picks) we'll be in business.

have you seen ticket prices on eBay all of a sudden for packer tickets? To hell with saving pennies...you'll need a couple Benjamins to get tickets...at least at Lambeau...might still be pennies at Detroit though, lol

I was just at BF's website and they make us look like suicide risks. I think some of them might have actually begun levitating.

Hahahahahahahaha! Tooooo funny !!

My puter became very ill around April 8/06 and I just got it repaired and back up last evening. I am just now reading all I can, to catch up on all the Packer latest or 'the details'.

Friends / Packer Fans from "the Maritimes" called me with the news on Brett returning for 2006 and it was all the news on the Sports Broadcasts up here.

That NEWS of coarse, was pleasing to hear, finally.

I am still trying to grab all the details on the Javon Walker move to the Broncos and TT's moves to expand OUR Draft choices from 7-12. He did very well there.

Glad we signed Charles Woodson and overall we got alot done that I wish I could have cheered about with you fellas. I was 'off line', 8 weeks to the day yesterday.

Go Packers ! 25 more TD's Brett.

Welcome back Woodbuck!

[woodbuck27]

Welcome back Woodbuck!

Thanks K-town . A TON to catch up on. Reading all I can at the present to get there. Just read through the Season's prediction thread and in a few days will make my early guess there.

Any real improvement, will of coarse depend on shoring up OUR OL and TT made efforts there in the Draft. We still need a vet @ Guard.

I am pleased with the drafting of AJ Hawk and Abdul Hodge to fortify a weakened LBer position. Also, NFL ready WR Greg Jennings may offer a fine target for Favre as well.

Pickett, Manual and C.Woodson should bolster OUR improved "D" from last seasons Raaaaaalllllpppphhhh.

I do believe barring the disasterous injuries we saw last Season, that the Packers could surprise - especially if Favre and Ahman Green respond to their potential, but the key again is the success of the new Zone Blocking Scheme and the OL. It's all set up by the running game.

Wood,

Welcome Back; a couple weeks ago we were all wondering where the heck you went to. I was worried you became a Viking fan or something.

You missed out on a heck of a draft day thread with over 2G in posts. I think TT is making some good moves in the right direction.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Why, I was just sentimentalizing about the time that the Huck & Buck Show blew Nutz & Boltz out of the water. Those guys are still bitter. But that's Show Business.

Whats up Woody?

Hi Bretsky:

They say never say never but woodbuck27 and Vikings will not wash. I was disappointed that due to circumstances beyond my control that I missed April 29/30. A friend of the Lady's came onboard ' to solve ' a terrible problem with pop-ups and clawed the "H" out of my Windows PRO System. For some reason "this Computer Genious" got the words disable and delete mixed up and deleted the Anti-Virus System and all that contributed to excluding me from the WW Web - shuting me down.I've gone to Windows XP to see if that clicks.

I was in the dark as far as OUR Draft till about the week following when Friends/Packer Fans clued me in. I don't have TSN and up here in Montreal it's too much hockey. I'm just now trying to assess it and see how we graded out but I believe we have improved. Loving the Hawk,Hodge Jennings picks. Maybe more help on the OL as well, but TT has to get more experience there, as a priority.

The Javon Walker trade isn't all I hoped for, as all I see at present is three extra bodies and no #1 WR but we all must hope that T/G Daryn Colledge, DT Johnny Jolly 'a strong character guy' and CB / (WR - NFL) Will Blackmon will produce. The toughest of us on this Forum would have stuck Javon in the trash bin, so at least we came away from his EGO NEEDS with prospects.

Bretsky. Not trying to pound wind up you tail man but why is it that I agree so frequently with your contributions here. Your thoughts may as well be mine,LOL.

This Forum is loaded with awesome Packer fans - people who not only LOVE the Pack but have 'the inside' on the team. The past couple of days I've really enjoyed reading the contributions of some newer members and the Vets get better all the time. I love this Forum - I have faith it won't go - to the dogs as many do. This forum has the earmarks of being the BEST as things continue, as we are seeing them at present.

GO Packers and Packer Rats.

Hi Harlan:

HH , that is so long ago I forget how we were scripted or NOT. LOL

It all comes down to chemistry though and I must say that reading the responses of Nutz and Murph to "Favre is returning" took a special place inside of me. I loved that thread. I never would have believed that Nutz was that sentimentle. He's a real softy, and Murph gets my vote as one of Brett's BEST Fans. Wooooppps - I'll get alot of arguement there.

Harlan - Favre's timing better not be that bad once the Season rolls around. I thought he would declare just after the draft but maybe he was simply saying to all of us, that he had 100% confidence in TT and M3 by declaring when he did.

[woodbuck27]

Whats up Woody?

Hi MadtownPacker:

I must say that after an 8 week absence and coming back here, as my very first choice during my first trek back to the Web - this site is simply AWESOME.

Congratuations Mad and to all other key people here and really to all the contributors for making PACKERRATS.COM really something SPECIAL.

I very much appreciate it. THANKS.

GO Packers .

Good to see the other Canuck back Woodbuck! It's hard to carry that Maple Leaf around myself all the time Hopefully, we'll have Ryan to help us soon.

So you missed the draft and everything - that must've near killed you. And there were those around here who thought you might well be dead, you disappeared so fast!

So you let some 'expert' friend work on your computer, eh? I'll never understand why people are so unwilling to pay money to get a pro to fix their PC. You wouldn't let a shady tree mechanic look at your fuel injection system, would you? Sorry - not giving you a hard time, everybody does it.

Hi Guiness:

What part of OUR humble land are you from? Something you posted recently told me you must live in Canada.

Yes that thing with "the Lady and her puter expert Friend" sent me straight to the PSYCHO Ward - almost. I had no idea that repair meant sabotage, LOL. No computer pour moi spells lost.

I can laugh now , but we work so hard to prepare for the draft and to miss that really sucked.

I am so careful with what sites I entertain and "the Lady and her trusted companions" are all over the map. That = SPYWARE. That = Virus's.

I was shocked to find the Norton Corporate Edition Anti-Virus had been deleted and the system was in total disarray as I worked on it for several hours to try to repair and restore some firewall / Anti Virus System protection and repair the registry.

The system simply crashed.
