If by chance he is lying about a little thing like a text, couldnt it very well be plausible he lied during the whole GB drama to make him self look good?

no, no chance brett lied to anybody in GB, as it was pointed out to me by a member of this very forum......MM & Ted Thompson had Rodgers, and were not about to beg Brett Favre to play in GB.

The coaching staff & front office were ready to move on with their #1 pick, they had to see what A-Rod was made of....after all, Rodgers contract was about to expire.

I think in your obsession to discredit a hall of fame football player, you have lost the ability to think with your head and instead are thinking with your broken heart.

So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste

Proff?

In the past I gave out actual quotes from Brett himself, where as others give out opinions...Yet I am not using my head?

I don't get what is so hard to think Brett Favre was ready to retire. He called say Ryan Longwell, and states, my ankle is really injured, don't think I can go this year.

Longwell contacts his coach and the executives in Minny. They beg the guy to come back(favre), the players beg the guy to come back(favre).

He has a ligit shot @ a championship, and says, damn it, my dad told me to play until I can't, till I am to be carried off the field, they (the vikes) really need me.

so...he changes his mind, and comes back....

can't say as i see it being so terrible(even if he lies about the text), really, that is between # and whomever he is texting)and i will also state as i have before, brett..stay retired, I got a feeling you're gonna regret coming back

please clarify this fence theory...what are the two sides again??

I hope I am on the side that wants #4 to play his ass off and entertain in 2010 and could careless about his private texts.

If that ol' hillbilly is out there slingin it on opening day 2010, more power to him.

I am happy we have rodgers, don't think brett could beat a-rod out if they were both in GB, rodgers has to much mobility, but I love watchin the gunslinger from Kiln Miss.

AND DO NOT CARE ABOUT HIS PRIVATE TEXTS TO HIS CRONIES.

I wish I could beat those of you who are quoting ENTIRE FUCKING CONVERSATIONS in their posts with rubber hoses. We've already read those posts; we don't need to read them in their entirety again.

There, I said it.

Maybe if Favre wasn't playing this "soap opera" year after year after year, i could take him seriously. Or at least not want to point out how wishy washy he is. But the act is getting old and tired.
Play, don't play.
Who really cares anymore? I don't.
When he was a Packer, i cared, as i never knew WHO was gonna be our QB because of his yearly "retirement" party.
Now, i laugh at it. It's the Queens that have to play this part now. And i don't think they like it.
At least from what i read on the Viking site, they arn't too thrilled.

LTF's argument is unimpeachable, Gravedigga. If he lied about this, he certainly could have lied before.

You cheated on your taxes. Does that prove that you commited a murder? What does one have to do with the other? Man, who cares. Lets just enjoy the football season and stop worrying about this junk. This is going on 2 years now with the Favre lovers vs haters.

Cant we all just get long

packerfanoutwest (26m) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (43m) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (59m) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (1h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (2h) : Who? What?

beast (10h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (15h) : meh

Zero2Cool (19h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (19h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (19h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (22h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (22h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
