Holy crap, we're still writing about this?

I wonder how many sports writers will hit the unemployment line the day Favre truly retires.

I thought the same thing, but it's not often you find a decent write up on it.

None. They'll just become sideline reporters for the TV networks.

Always liked that word, foster. Got me thinking, tho. What's the opposite of a bete noire? Une femme blanc?

(Qui ma bete noire est "sideline reporter," ma femme blanc est Jessica Biel?)
What phrase should replace the underlined bit?

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

So, I think the original post is pretty decent and procure a decent (most likely rehashed) discussion. Anyone?

I should have been listening instead of checking out my French teacher's

decolletage. I think we had that talk once, lol.

Nonstopdrivel est notre homme rsident de thesaurus.

If you need a bad rendition of La Marseillaise, I'm your guy. :thumbleft:

As to the article.

I want to add number 11.

We should not care. His motivations are his own. Even if he wants to "stick it to the Pack"

So what?

Heh. Unfortunately for them, the networks are eliminating sideline reporter positions with a vengeance. Even Chris Myers is in the booth now.

Want a different opinion.. I think it speaks loudly to the fact the most have accepted the fact that no one is solely to blame and many have moved on.

I call the progress from the days were this would have been a heated repetitive circular debate.

I agree, most have taken that angle on this. I think most (as proven by SOME in this thread) don't give the topic any respect or care in the world. I fall in line with that most of the time, lately, but with the game coming up, I think it's time to get fired up about it. 🙂

I don't think it speaks of disrespect at all.. more so, drama overload.

Personally, I would rather focus upon the strategies of the game to defeat the opposition than the treading in the wallows of drama past.

But I do agree, this will be an element of the game, however I think grossly over hyped.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
