I never understood the Favre supporters back in 08. In my opinion, Brent's best moment might be his superbowl ring or the game against the raiders after his father passed. But the childish mess he created in 08 surpasses any of his many heartbreaking interceptions as his lowest point in his career.

As for the fans that were not supporting Rodgers during 08, have any of the admitted that they were wrong? Are they still packer's fans or do they bleed purple now? (Sorry eng. After reviewing this post, I realized you had pretty much the same question)

As for true packer's fans, I think we all feel very lucky. We had a great QB for almost 2 decades and now, all evidence points to another great run. I think Rodgers has a better chance to gain multiple super bowl rings because he is smarter than our past QB.

As time goes on in its inexorable fashion, truth will float to the surface like a dead body in a lake. Favre is showing his true charactor, Rodgers is showing his. The people who were bashed Rodgers Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy for the "troubles" are not people I would consider Packer fans. They are Favre fans and welcomed to his drama. We, as Packer fans, don't need them back.

If Rodgers had played poorly, it wouldn't change anything for me. His success and Favre's displays of dishonesty, disloyalty and dis-integrity are only attracting band-wagoners back to the Pack.

Anybody who changes their mind this year is only doing it because we have a shot at the SB and Favre is sinking their team.

I don't think they deserve to be considered Packer fans if they took Favre over the team and Rodgers.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

God. This is one of those "embarrassed to be a packers fan" moments. I mean it would be hard to blame him if he had a resentment for Packers FANS(the organization, his teammates treated him right but not the fans).

you gotta keep in mind he's recalling the really shitty moments during that time. i'm sure for every "f@%k you Aaron!" there were 3 "hey Aaron, sign my tits!".

if we used the message boards as a reference, i would say there was way more support for Rodgers than sentiment. well, maybe not waaaay more, but definitely more.

I been to about 10 games in GB when Brett was q/b...(including the Detroit playoff game)

And I NEVER heard such a loud cheer as I did when Rodgers came on the field for the Viking game last year

So my guess is that the majority of fans support the Pack

man. this fucking article makes me sick to be a Sconnie.

whoever said "Packer fans are the best" is an asshole. y'all are no different than the fucking Jersey rats (obviously not y'all here...except Dhazer).

(Realize my angry rant here is obviously directed at the corn-fed starfucking homers out there, not the fans with functioning grey matter)

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (3h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (5h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (21h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (22h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE
