At a time when quarterback Brett Favre hopes to get back in the good graces of Green Bay, it probably makes sense to temper talk of how he really had wanted to play for a different team. On Friday, before an SMU Athletic Forum luncheon in Dallas, Favre admitted that he always wanted to play

It's understandable why. Boy from the south, watched the 70s Cowboys, they were the big things. I wonder what context he said that in. Because if he was saying he always loved the Cowboys as a kid and had dreams of playing for them, that's one thing. If it's more him sounding like he wishes he was never on the Packers and spent his career with the Cowboys, well...

He's ruining his chances of still feeling important and loved by a fanbase. If he even wants that anymore.

I say this in the nicest possible way: Brett was never the sharpest knife in the drawer. I doubt he meant anything negative to Packer fans. He'll just have to live out his fantasies now watching Tony Romo hahaha.

This is a dude who's more likely to be playing with himself. And his cell phone.

I don't think it's a really big deal since he grew up in Louisiana but it's odd timing coming on the heels of him wanting to come back to GB.

Green Bay’s Super Bowl run came when the Packers managed to avoid Dallas, thanks to the Panthers.

Always got the impression Dallas lost that game to the Panthers because they never wanted any part of GB in Lambeau in the playoffs.

not even news worthy. It doesn't matter that he wished he could play for the cowgirls. If you checked with most NFL players they all most all had a favorite team they wanted to play for when they were young and it wasn't the team they spent most of their career with.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
