I can't blame Ted for not allowing him to go to the Bears or Viqueens. He would have been stupid to do so. Unless he could have recieved 1st round picks for the next 6 years.
It was a good football/business move to make him go elsewhere.
And Favre wanted to play, can't blame the guy for that.
To me, it's in the past and it's time now to honor his accomplishments here.
I know not all feel that forgiving, and if they want to hold onto the bitterness, that's their choice. Me, I will remember all the fun I had watching him lead the Packers.
It was one HELL of a ride!!!😁

Ted did what was best for the team, and he was a good leader in doing so.

The difference between me and a lot of other people is that I don't have a particular problem with the way Favre handled it either. He wanted to be released so he could go where he wanted to go. Who wouldn't. Ted said no and he traded him away. The Jets had no problem letting him go and he went to the vikings. I don't think its that big of a deal. Others disagree. No biggie.

I wish I could be there in person Saturday night but it won't happen. I'm guessing only a SB win would exceed the enthusiasm and celebration that will go on.

Ints aside, he was generally all you could ask for on the field. Off the field, though...
