It would seem while some replies in this thread go against the grain, most have been in support of Arod and co. My take on it?
One thing I hope to find in sports, particularly in the teams I follow, is a higher sense of character or morals. Some would argue that they look at wins and losses, pehaps a superbowl to define a teams success, and while that is true, I measure my teams by my own parameters, as most do.
The thing I love about the packers, for several years now, is that agree or disagree with the decisions made by management, we typically have a bunch of guys on our roster that are "easy" to root for. High moral code, great character, and typically not alot of law breakers on the team.
I say that recognizing that you could find specific examples, but in general I believe I'm right.
That being said, I challenge those who oppose the way the Favre situation has been handled to look at the character of Aaron Rodgers, and tell me how he could have handled this situation any better. Most quarterbacks would have asked for a trade / holdout / ask for a release, or any other number of negative acts. All of that would probably have happened prior to this situation even comming to fruition.
But no, Arod said all the right things, tried to befriend Favre, and tried to ain acceptance from a fan base that wanted nothing to do with him. Then when this situation arises, still all positives. When an open competition was "granted" after months of telling Arod here would be none, still nothing negative.
My point is, that although he may never be as good as Favre, and he may make us wish we still had the ol gunsinger around, this is the wrong man to be mad at. If you wish to boo his bad play, thats up to you, but if you wish to wash this Favre anger away in a much more productive manner, I suggest you hop on board, because all Aaron Roders has done so far, is give us reason to cheer.
