It seems like...

But oh well, we have to understand I suppose that there will always be someone who disagrees with Ted Thompson and Brett. We must remember, he is retired right now... not because of TT. Not because of the Packers. He is retired because of himself. He can't do the game anymore

I was agreeing with HPG who agreed with Dhazer, I wasn't targeting anyone in particular on this forum, if anyone thought that I apologize.

Seems like lately those of us who wanted Brett to play another year can say nothing right.

I appreciate eveyones opinons on this forum, I would hope I get the same.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Thank you "I like the Packers". I try to say how i feel, and somehow it seems to be misunderstood by some. I THINK it's because they feel it's a "right or left" issue. Where i can see both sides and agree with some of both sides.
I wouldn't mind if Favre plays. Like i said, it would have made for one heck of an interesting story.
Buckeye, there are some fans that hate BF now because of all that went on. But there are lots more like me that love the guy, but don't always agree with what he says or does. Heck, that happens all the time with me and my wife! She is more on the "i love BF" side.
I love and respect too many people here to let something that NONE of us has control over change that.

Again, my post was not about any one in paticular, I was just agreeing with HPG and giving her a little advice.

I have not read the whole thread, or as a matter of fact, I haven't read any of the posts.

I am truly going to miss Brett. He is one of my favorite players of ALL time. I almost teared up when I saw that he was staying retired, simply because I knew I'd never see him play again.

I'm going to put all of the things that he did that would make me mad at him behind me.

I'm probably going to cry along w/ Brett when he is inducted into the hall of fame.

I will miss him truly.

But THANK GOD he is NOT going to play with the VIKINGS! lol

Gopackgo.......i will also cry when Favre is inducted. (If i'm still on the right side of the grass, that is)
I love the guy, and you know he will be appreciative when the induction comes. I only wish Big Irv could have been here to see it, and share it with Brett. And we all KNOW that that is what Brett will be thinking that day.

I think a lot of people are pissed some of us fans don't look at Favre in a unique light or give him special consideration. I don't remember this much uproar in defense of Sharper or Longwell, and they have a right to play the game they love too. Favre has been more annoying, in my opinion, with the back and forth and the media manipulation. I'm not going ignore it just because he's Favre. That makes absolutely no sense to me, and I've always been a huge fan of his. But when someone acts like a jackass, I gotta call it like I see it. I don't consider that "ripping into him". In retrospect I bet he would say he made some jackass waffling moves too.

Whatever. I'm glad I don't have to see him in Vikings purple. He has a right to do whatever he wants, but I have a right to be happy that I'm not going to be a witness to a travesty of such epic proportion.

I'm interested to know why you say it would be such a travesty?

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

Zero2Cool (22m) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (4h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (4h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (5h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (5h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (5h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (5h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (5h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (5h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (5h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (5h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (5h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (5h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (5h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (5h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (6h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (7h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (7h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (7h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (23h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
