Unless Mortensen's sources are one or all of Ted Thompson, Mike McCarthy, Pat McKenzie or Aaron Rodgers...he is full of crap.

This is garbage and so is ESPN.

I really don't think Favre has anything to do with it.
I think Rodgers just wants to play, and knows this is a shot at the playoffs and he wants to lead the team.
I believe he'd be like that no matter WHO was the Packer's QB before he became the starter.

Rodgers is hypersensitive. We all know that. He feels he needs to outdo Favre.

Taking Mike McCarthy at his word instead of trying to read between the lines what probably ain't there, it seems obvious that McCarthy also - in addition to Rodgers - was not part of that stupid decision to not play Rodgers. Clearly, by saying "organizational decision", he was shoving the blame upward - and WHO is upward from McCarthy? That piss poor excuse for a GM that the Packers have - along with maybe the damned doctor.

This doesn't have anything to do with Favre or machismo or anything like that, it has everything to do with WINNING -which it strongly seems that God damned GM does not care nearly enough about.

Thanks to luck and effort by players on this undermanned team, we still have a chance on the last day of the season. Is God damned Thompson gonna blow that opportunity? I hope not.
