My only problem is that if we did bring back Brett, it's not like the defense would suddenly not get injuries thanks to his amazing presence. We'd probably not make it to the Super Bowl thanks to it also. Then we'd have to deal with Brett Favre going "Maybe, maybe not" again and again, and Rodgers being a Free Agent. So we'd have, what, 1 more year with Favre and no future QB? Not to mention no Super Bowl because of piss poor defense?

I don't think we would have had to put up with that, if we sucked like we did last year he would call it quits i believe and we could also have paid Rodgers. Btw Ninja i'm trying to figure out you, your a Packer fan and a Yankee fan thats 2 totally different styles of managment. One spends tons of cash on big names and the other won't spend money they have.


Also i know i'm a genius 😛
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I know, that is why I think it makes a neat avatar for the baseball season. Except, you got it wrong. The packers pay players who deserve it and don't go off spending money on a big FA who may be past his prime, and the Yankees pay because they can 😛.

Anyway, back to subject. Did you just say favre would have known that the packers would suck before even starting the season? That is what I'm reading. And even if we had the money, who says Rodgers wouldn't get a starter spot somewhere else with the same/more amount of money? It was all too much of a gamble and Ted Thompson did the safest thing.

Ninja on the Rodgers subject he was still under contract thru this year so he couldn't go anywhere. But back to Brett and the bad season. What i meant if he played and had a bad season i think he would call it quits.

He would have still been under contract thru this up coming season. But it really don't matter now, but i think it could have been a solution to all of this, might not have worked but hey in my mind would have been worth a shot. Would have saved face i believe for the franchise.

I think its funny how much anger certain fans have towards Favre. They say they don't but everytime they can cut him down they do. But i can bet my left nut if he was still the qb of the Packers and we were winning people wouldn't be saying this shit. Oh well i guess they need something to bitch about, makes me wonder what would be said about god Jennings if he goes somewhere else.

Oh I don't have a built up emotional bank towards Brett himself.. personally I don't "feel" the same betrayal that some seem to. Players come and players go.. in the end of the day I wish the long term players nothing in the end but to decide when the time is right to go for them.

Brett did that on a certain level in Green Bay.. apparently he felt it was time to hang them up in the tearful presser.. he changed his mind.. but so did the Packers.. how can one be able to and the other not?

But back to point.. I do however loathe the whole turmoil that Packer nation seems to find itself in.. the nonstop debate and arguing of the same old topics..

I wish I could kick this addiction of mine for a couple of months.. damn Packers anyways. :lol:

Still though, I think what Ted Thompson did was right. Though he was under contract he could have demanded a trade. Not to mention, if your argument is that Favre would have retired on a bad season, look at him now. He didn't even make it to the playoffs. They made Aaron Rodgers the man, and letting favre back in as automatic starter would make the system look really, really weak.
