Wow, I couldn't help but notice the name of the island behind Brett in that picture that hazer posted.....lmao.

Anyway, I'll miss him. Arguably one of the best QBs of all time.

Crap, that'll be at 00:00.

Hopefully they'll have some kind of missed program stuff so you can see it later on.

Really gonna miss the guy. Would be funny if he anounced that he wants to be released and joins the Vikings... or worse, this is one big charade to get released by the Jets after they get a new QB so he can join the Vikings and kick our ass!

In all seriousness, I'm gonna miss his play. I'm still in doubt if I want him to retire. On one side I don't want his legacy screwed, or see him play at a low level. On the other side, I'd love to see him have another great season. Get his records secure, gaining the consecutive starts record, just seeing him play 16 more games.

I dont expect Brett to be back in Green Bay any time soon or anytime with Ted Thompson in the front office. The stuff he said about what Ted Thompson did was the truth you can't deny that. Ship him to the Jets because they were a bad team and the Packers won't play them. Best of Luck Brett lets go hunting lol.

Maybe we can retire his jersey in about 3 years.

It's the truth why cause Brett said it?? Perhaps the truth was that Farve truly did not want to play for the Packers ne more. He just couldnt articulate it without alienating fans. Say what you will but Farve like most sports figures are needy emotionally. He may have not felt welcome because he no longer ruled the roost. Either way I would see if Farve wanted back in Green Bay by virtue of a trade. That way we can retire his number and give him the send off he should have taken last year,.

I am therefor I think.

Here is a statement from the Green Bay Packers:

Congratulations to Brett on a remarkable career. The Packers organization wishes him and his family well. Brett always will hold a special place in Green Bay Packers history, and we remain committed to retiring his number at an appropriate time in the future.

Rock there already is a conspiracy theory out there it goes like this:

Brett Retires (clears cap space)
Jets go and sign a few free agents and use the cap room up
Brett un retires but Jets don't have the cap space for him so he is released
Goes to Minny.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

When Brett announced his retirement and gave that speech last year, when he cried I always thought about this day coming. And I always saw myself crying along with him(seriously) but I didn't. I didn't know why at the time. But I guess now I do. Now I'll never cry. Just because I'll never know for sure.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (7h) : HUMP DAY

beast (7h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (7h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (8h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (8h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (8h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (8h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (10h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (10h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (10h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (10h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (10h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (10h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (23h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
