Brett's decision to play for the Vikings DOES effect the fans of the Packers and Vikings lives. It's turmoil everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not really, at the end of the day, it's still just a football game. I can think of 10 things more important in my life than whether or not Brett comes back this week or next, whether he retires and unretires. His legacy is pretty low on the importance scale in my house. It will entertain me to see him play again and thats it.

I don't CARE what BF does, except as how it affects the Packers. And as was already said, it's ONLY football!
But this also is only a disscussion site, right? So i give my views, and why, just like the people that want BF to beat the Packers. Why do the BF "lovers" think their opinion carrys more value then anyone elses?
Is there really a "right and wrong" when it comes to that?
It's ONLY opinions, right?

What drives the NFL fans to be still obsessed with Brett Favre?

Is it because he more often then not played the game like a kid on a sandlot? Are we all still searching for that little kid inside all athletes and hoping that they all enjoy the fact that they make millions to play a game?

Is it hoping that he catches lightening in a bottle and goes out via John Elway?

Not just Packer nation, but the nation of NFL fans seem still to grasp hold of the legend that is Brett and can't seem to let go.

It is the only reasonable explanation for this obsession that the media seems to have in reporting every little movement that Brett makes..

Or is it just about web hits and traffic? Brett sells you know..

D'OH... now I contributed to the obsession.. 10 lashes with a wet noodle please..

1. He is one of the top 5 qb's of all time.
2. He is one of, if not THE most charismatic player in NFL history.
3. He's been up front and very candid most of his career
4. The streak. His determination and toughness, his regular guy attitude

Grave - I'm glad you answered Pack's original question because it was starting to go off on a tangent again.

I'll add a #5 - he's such an "every day guy" that folks almost can live vicariously through him. Heck, in this depression, all the more reason to root for an every day guy to make it.

I'm hoping he plays for the Vikings and they win 14 games (losing 2 to us while we win 16) and he throws for 30+ TDs. I'll always love the guy for entertaining me for all these years. Since he started playing football, I've been through 3 layoffs, 2 pretty bad recessions, homeless, through college, through graduate school, had a child, got married, made and lost a fortune in the stock market, played in what I thought would be my final Heavy Metal band, changed my career a bunch of times, and so much else that I could go on forever. Through it all, Brett Favre started game after game, for the Packers except for last year. That's awesome. That's consistent, something you just don't see in football.

Zero2Cool (4m) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (15m) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (25m) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (45m) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (54m) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (1h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (1h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (1h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (2h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (3h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (3h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (4h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (4h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (4h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (4h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (4h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (4h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (4h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (4h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (4h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (4h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (4h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (4h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (4h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (4h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (4h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (4h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (5h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (5h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (5h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (5h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (5h) : Packers will get in

beast (5h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (5h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (5h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (7h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (8h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (9h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (18h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (18h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
