sucks. but maybe this will be a good thing for him. he said he doesn't want to undergo surgery in order to keep playing. maybe this will kind of force him to not play. i know it's not my place, but i think he needs to stop playing football. for the sake of his body. for the sake of his legacy. for the sake of his mental health. the man needs to move on.

Brett will get the surgery. Only because it will be to painful to swing his golf clubs.

How much golf does he do now a days?

I'm sure not as much as he would like to. The shoulder injury will also limit his strength when drawing his bow hunting.

Well he did quit the GB club a few years ago cuz he was hardly golfing anymore

No one knows for sure when he tore it. So it's hard to say how much of the "Bad Brett" was caused by the tear.
Again though, if it was THAT painful, he should have taken himself out for the sake of the TEAM. If you know you are doing more harm then good, why destroy your team for personal gain?

Again, you haven't seen the Jets' backups. If the coaches felt they had a better chance with their backups, it's their job to take him out not his. His job is to show up and give everything he has until they decide he can't do the job.

Then they must be gawd awful. Cause watching Brett was painful. He looked lost out there.
And i say that with love. I care about him, and he just was BAD.

Maybe I'm backwards in thinking this but I would assume that there's a better chance of seeing Brett return if he wasn't injured.

My line of thinking is that Brett may still have the skills to give it another crack next season and I'm sure there'll be at least some sort of team that will think Brett's an upgrade. But if I were in Brett's position and I learned that I've torn my bicep muscle and that there's calcification in my shoulder, I'd think hell, I don't want to do permanent damage to my body by staying out there too long.

I'm also sure there are teams that would want him. There are 10 QB's in the league that had a lower passing rating them Favre had, so i'm sure someone in that group would give him a shot.

They were. Brett Favre on crutches bleeding out of both ears is still better than the Jets backups. And yes, Brett was bad. I watched (and winced) at the games. And this is coming from someone who was screaming "Brett Favre for MVP" after the Titans win.

wpr (12h) : 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?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
