Today's world, with the internet and all the "news" outlets make it impossible for any "star" athelete to get away with anything.
I bet if we could see the players from the 1960's and what some of them did, we'd see alot of similarities with today's guys.
Max Mcgee and Paul Hornung partied and slept around constantly. They were not "choir boys". And I bet many others did similar things.

So me, I choose to brush aside the crap that went on when Favre left here, and to focuss on the good times while he was here.
It bothered me at the time when it all went down, but for me holding onto the bad benefits no one.
Just my humble opinion and choice, of cours.

I think one of the worst stories about Brett that I may have missed earlier in this thread was that he impregnated a local news anchor in Green Bay and then paid a ton of hush money to keep it quiet. I believe it had something to do with him buying her a big house.

Oh, he belongs in any Hall of Fame for what he did on the field, but if character counted at all he should be barred from all of them.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Junior High? The guy had a notorious reputation for being a first class prick so unlike that "genuine" TV persona that so many of you think is the "truth".

You can try slinging mud and hating all you want that's your right but a fair majority want this to take place so we can move on and end this chapter once and for all.

I remember him going on Greta's show July '08, just few weeks before being traded to the Jets. What interview are you referring to?

I don't know that anyone disputed his on the field merits.

You're right, others got away with stuff pre-social media. Max Mcgee was drunk the night before SBI if I'm not mistaken. Eugene Robinson made some poor choices the night before a SB as well. Burt, however, lived a distinctly diffetent life than the one he got the media to portray and some of us choose not to forget that.

Tickets sure sold out fast. Looks like either a lot of people have forgiven him or a lot of people bought the maximum with hopes of reselling them. I was going to purchase one and go but it looks like I'll miss it.

dfosterf (17h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
