Chargers GM AJ Smith just told me: "The only thing Ive thinking throughout this whole (Favre) situation is how smart Ted Thompson looks."

If the Vikings honestly let Favre waltz into the last week of training camp and anoint him the starter, what kind of message does that send the rest of the team? You don't have to be here to work hard and earn your job?

It's bad enough he's got egg all over his face trying to court Favre the past two months. I'd have to think the team would give a collective and silent FU to the coaching staff and front office if that happened.

Barring an injury, I don't see how Balldress can honestly let Favre waltz in halfway through camp and just hand him the starting job without losing what little confidence the team has left in him.

Does anyone REALLY believe it's over? (I don't)
This whole thing reminds me of the "Friday the 13TH" movies, where "Jason" gets killed over and over and over..........yet when they sigh and say "It's finally over" they look to where the body is SUPPOSED to be, and POOF! He's gone! Ready to kill the next victim!

It isn't over........AARP will be sending him stuff, and it STILL won't be over.

I'm kind of let down. I thought we were going to see a REAL circus this season. Plus, i dyed my wife's Favre Jets jersey purple.......should i throw it out, or hold onto it just in case???
(I'm gonna call Brett up and ask him.....LOLOL!!!)

Maybe this happens ....

lol ... I know ... won't happen but I thought it'd be funny.

Maybe THIS happens:

1. Brett gets signed for one day,
2. He'll play that day as our starting No. 1 QB,
3. He'll be named MVP of the game,
4. After the game his jersey will be retired and
5. he'll retire as a Packer.


That day will be 2-7-2010 in Miami

I know ... won't happen but I thought it'd be funny.


Have a nice day,

It was a tight game, and it swayed back and forth. And sure enough, he pulled out a victory at the end...
I swear to you, he smiled while he was doing it. He smiled til the end.
We’ll miss you, gunslinger.

Just heard on NFL Network that he's "going to keep throwing" because he's torn over his decision. This is not over yet.

I wanted the Pack to play him. I wanted to see his diva ass on the turf and his team beaten and him embarassed, along with his crotch-sniffing apologists. Of course, I do not know what the outcome of those games would be, but that is what I was hoping for.

I don't know if this is over, because I don't believe him. It's kind of like not knowing how well he would play, or what the reasons are for him playing poorly down the stretch last year. Could have been the arm, but personally, I don't believe that either.

R.P. said this is a bad day for Packers fans because the Vikes are better off without Favre as their quarterback. I lean slightly towards that, potential and talent-wise, ( I think T-Jack will win the job and continue to improve, but that is an opinion with quite a bit of speculation interjected)but the situation is so different there that it must be taken into account. Just like his shadow follows the Packers around, due in my opinion to so much unfair, stupid and blind criticism of how his retirement was handled, the same kind of idiots in Minnesota that we have will be second-guessing the Vikes FO throughout training camp, the pre-season, and during the season.

Favre will probably be "laying in wait" for an opportunity to come in as a conquering hero of sorts, or possibly just to bask in the media spotlight of speculation...imo...

Whatever.

I look forward to the day that he stands in front of a microphone and no one is there to listen. His 16 years of Packer quarterbacking have been "tarnished" (some like to speculate on such matters) to the degree that I am sick and tired of the man and his waffling aw-shucks, I don't know what I feel/am/am not going to do bullshit.

The only thing I really like about this is all the hand-wringing by the apologists and the Vikings fans that opted to support the move of Brett to their team.

Whoever made the decision to part ways with Brett Favre last year ought to get a friggin' medal and a raise.

Personally care less if he played or not.. but I have to admit, I am enjoying a little bit of the fallout in his flirtation with the Vikings.. he lingered it along enough to provide a distraction and maybe a ripple or two of division in the Vikings locker room.

Brett helped us again.. since his retirement he provided a 3rd round pick and a thorn in the side of a rival. Thanks Brett.

I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed that the same posters that were ripping on Favre for thinking about coming back, are now ripping on him because he is staying retired. I think it's pretty simple the hate for the guy is obvious.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I think a lot of people are ripping on him for the way he treated the Vikings at the end of this whole ordeal.

He basically led them on this whole time. Now it's a pretty embarrassing situation for the whole team.

It's also obvious the hate for the guy is aimed at him:

1) Calling out our team for not making moves he wanted
2) Specifically calling out Ted Thompson 3) Wanting to play for the hated rival Vikings
4) Playing his usual retirement dance this year
