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 (11h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (12h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
