Did everything but climb on the bar &start a F YOU, FAVRE"

my affection for Rodgers increased exponentially at ESPNs Sundance party during the conference championships, when Rodgers and his buddies unabashedly rooted against former nemesis Favre and the Vikings down the stretch and celebrated raucously when New Orleans pulled it out. Rodgers couldnt have been more delighted; he did everything but climb on the bar and start a F YOU, FAVRE! chant. I will always root for him after that. And yes, that story is 100 percent true.

LOL.. nothing like a little more gasoline for the rivalry fire this season.. but I think it is clear.. that it would have been replicated in reverse if the situation was so.. although he might not have done it in a public setting.

I'm waiting for people to start saying things like "OMG Rodgers shouldn't do that that is so mean, meeeehhh!!!" Shut up. Rodgers had to wait for years for Favre to stop waffling. If you think that T-Jack has any different feelings toward Favre, then you're high off your ass. Favre has shown time and again that he is not a team player. He puts himself before the team, and the coach for that matter, each and every year. I don't blame Rodgers for openly cheering against Favre. Lets not forget that the Vikings are rivals to the Packers. Do you think that the players don't feel the rivalry as much, if not more than the fans? They do.
I like this post, because I didn't know about that before now, and much like the author of this article, it has built upon my love for ARod. Thanks for the post, Wamzlee.

This is AWESOME! This is exactly what I want from Rodgers. He should take the losing last year twice to Favre as motivation and destroy the Vikings. Those two games are the most important of the year because of the division. Anything it takes to get that extra motivation.

I love it, you don't think Favre was celebrating when Rodgers missed Jennings and then fumbled to lose in OT? OF COURSE he was, he's human just like Rodgers.

Overall, Rodgers has handled the whole Favre saga with more class than I could have even hoped for, he was gracious in both losses and has never really ripped Favre. He's not out there saying "Favre sucks" or something, he's cheering against a divisional rival, it just speaks to him being HUMAN.

This is all a "who cares?"

The only thing that matters is when we face them in the Playoffs, Rodgers throws more TDs (or runs in, doesn't matter) and less INTs than Favre.

The best part in that article was the comment about Brees taking over the belt from Peyton, and then he linked to the Hulk versus the Iron Shiek. Since then I've been watching old school WWF footage for the last hour.

I don't care if Rodgers throws three interceptions, doesn't score a single point and Brett throws six touchdowns. If we win, that's all that matters.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
