And this is why I don't like relatives of athletes talking ...

Eh. At least he didn't say something to the effect of, "Well that's because Aaron is better." It is fact that Aaron does have one up on Brett in the SB MVP category. And it is awesome.

I seriously cannot believe that even in the euphoria of the pinnacle of achievement, a Super Bowl victory, people can not resist bringing up Brett Favre vs. Aaron Rodgers. I thought the collective we was better than that. 😞

If I am Rodgers.. after this season.. I put a standing order on all interview.. ask me a Brett question.. the interview is terminated.

Enough is enough.

Aaron is his own man.. his own QB. Enough all ready, I understand the need to ask in this moment.. but it should end now.

I hope it ends, for all of our sakes.

It's not like Brett's brother never said anything stupid in the media. As I recall, his brother was "leaking" information that Brett wasn't happy with the Packers direction as early as 2006 which was, of course, denied by BF.

Reality Zero....Reality :icon_smile: :icon_smile:

Bart Starr.......Brett Favre.....Aaron Rodgers

3 GREAT qb's who wore The Green and Gold proud, and brought Championship football back to Green Bay.

Please let all the pettiness of the last 3 years die.

Reality is...

THE GREEN BAY PACKERS ARE ONCE AGAIN WORLD CHAMPIONS.

Everything is right in the world.

-sigh-

There's no pettiness. It's the constant comparison that I'm hoping ends.

He's his own man, he won a SB, I really thought that last night would put an end to all the need to compare Rodgers to Favre and people using Rodgers to somehow take shots at Favre or vice-versa. I loved Aikman and Buck solely because they didn't mention Favre, why would they?

Rodgers is great in his own right. Period. End of story, why the need to validate what he's done by saying anything about Favre. Your probably just feeding Favre's ego, is he really that important, that he needs to be discussed at a time where the GB Packers as a TEAM won the Super Bowl?

Btw, I actually don't think what his brother and dad said was that offensive, it looks they were just asked a question and reacted. I'm not sure what else they were suppose to say. Although not knowing that Favre didn't win the MVP in 1996, they really didn't follow football 15 years ago?

---

I don't find it all that surprising. If I weren't a Packers fan (and it's probable that Rodgers' relatives are 49ers fans, after all), I don't think I would know who'd won the Super Bowl MVP that year either.
