A great Packers fan would just get over their losses and move on. If we have a bump in the road, its a good thing; it brings us down a few notches and brings us back to the horror of reality.

But hey, its better than say, being a vikings fan.

Actually, that 10-6 record was in 1989, so it was three years prior to Favre, not "a couple"(as in 2).

And the only reason that the Packers were 10-6 that year was because of that great 1st round draft pick...Tony Mandarich.
The packers then went 6-10 in 1990 and 4-12 in 1991.

Favre shows up in 1992 and Reggie White in 1993.

So the packers then went 9-7 for 1992, 1993 and 1994...Favre for all three years(he was not the starter for the entire 1992)season and White for two years.

The Packers were then spanked for three consecutive years by zombieslayer's favorite team in 93, 94 and 95.

Zombie said it best.
Being as i also lived through the 1970's and 80's, i NEVER take the Packers winning for granted, or consider being a jerk to the fans of other teams that haven't done so well.
Yes, i will PLAYFULLY raz the fans of other teams that come here and give us crap, but i never mean to be nasty to them (unless it's one of the few that only come here to be A-holes).
Our regulars like Formo, VR, Polargrizz and so on, i consider true fans. They are not the "fair weather" jerks that only show up when their teams are doing well.
These guys i'd gladly have a beer with and truely like them.

I RESPECT them.
And if i want respect back, i would never be one of those jerk fans.

6-10 in 2006 -> Draft Justin Harrell -> 11-5 in 2007.

See? One player can make a difference.

Being that 3 years would be around 2, I don't think that I was off by enough to make note of, much less use it to disprove the argument that Favre was not responsible for turning the Packers around.

Which reminds me. Favre is responsible for his first NFCCG choke in '95 when he threw a pick to the Cowboys in the 4th quarter. They had chance to regain the lead when Favre threw a pass that hit the DB right in the chest. After which, Favre was unable to complete a pass.

Holmgrens plan for winning the Super Bowl was to keep it from being in Favres hands in '96. Which is why he didn't throw a pass to the WRs down field after about 20 minutes into the game.

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

wpr (11h) : Only 4
wpr (11h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (14h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (14h) : 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
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
