FAVRE CAVES ON MINICAMP... Is reporting...

[BradStrand]

I feel for Favre, I mean we as Packer fans have had the honor to have this unbelievable competitor play for our team, and all we can show for it is one Super Bowl. Ron Wolf has said that was one of his biggest disappointments as a GM, and Sherman and Thompson should feel the same way.

Thompson should feel disappointed if GB doesnt have a top 10 defense this season. Brett Favres last legit shot at another ring ended in Philly, on Mike Shermans watch.

I don't care what way you look at it. Favre's perspectives, TT's point of view, or Steve Youngs' 2 cents. All of this crap is starting to get annoying.

Agree!!

[GrnBay007]

I guess I wanna know why Favre can't bitch and complain a little bit?

Exactly. The guy vented....he's done, let it go!!

[Kiwon]

I wonder if Brett is inviting Mark Chmura to Brittney's graduation party...

Ohhhhhhh..... "Judges, deduct one point from the red corner for a low blow."

All of this media stuff is bad for TT. It paints him a bad light. It won't hurt Favre who is retiring soon anyway.

Uhh, I hate to break it to you, but it already hurt Favre. It has already painted Brett in a bad light, or have you missed this board the last few days?

I guess I wanna know why Favre can't bitch and complain a little bit? Ever since he has been in Green Bay the Management for the Packers have failed almost every single year to give Favre some viable options to work with. The one year was when Ron Wolf was able to bring Keith Jackson into the fold and then go out an pick up Andre "bad Moon" Rison to win the fucking Super Bowl. Ever since then he has gotten the shaft. Like Jake Taylor said in the infamous movie Major League, "This is my last shot at a winner, and for some of these kids, their only shot!"

He can bitch and moan. Just grow a set and do it to TT's face instead of running off to the media like a tantrum throwing, whinly little girl.

Jackson was pure genius, but Rison was a drop dead had no other choice. He spent his half the season on the team running routes from the Falcons, Browns and Jaguars. Rison's TD in the Super Bowl was on a nod wink audible from Favre just like he used with Freeman when they found single-coverage.

I am glad Brett is attending and I hope they keep him away from the media, since I suspect that was the reason for his not wanting to go.

And I think McCarthy deserves kudos for handling this low key. He gave about the quietest public hint you could that a player can't choose to excuse himself from the one mandatory mini-camp and then kept his trap shut. No appearances, didn't repeat himself.

Good for trhe coach. After last year's offseason Al Harris/Woodson OTA daily foot in mouth-a-thon, I think he's wising up. Good job from him.

My favorite Rison story from that year was from Holmgren. He said before a playoff game (I think) that Reggie came to him and asked for the coach to let Andre speak to the team.

Holmgren thought Reggie had lost his mind or was part of a practical joke. You could still see the panic he felt even just retelling the story. Good stuff.

On one hand that's fair

On the other hand he may have been already grown a set and went to TT for a long time asking for more playmakers

LOL, I heard that he gave a really emotional speech before the SB about how he was very greatfull for how they accepted him to the team, and how he was going to make the most of this oppurtuninty and thanked them for everything. He even teard up. Then he went into a tirade about how they were gonna "fucking kick their asses and beat the shit out of them etc" LOL.

Is is true that he threw his SB ring in the Fox River after they didnt resign him?

Dianna and Diva can celebrate their daughters graduation next week.

I am Brettney, hear me roar and I am stomping through that door.
No, I don't want to take no shit from Ted.

Oh crap, the media is going off.
I look like a whiney girl
I better make it back to camp next week.

I am Brettney

And yes, I will chear for Brettney if he does well. I am a Pakcer fan after all. I jsut think he's a pampered, Diva athlete and he thinks he can say and do whatever he wants. GB takes it. The national media tears him up over it.

Have another drink !!
