How does Skip Bayless know who called who? Do you or Skip have evidence of this.

I had to sit through Rich Eisen farting out the, "Now we know he didn't do this to spite the Packers and it wasn't just about the money" crap on the 90 minute waste of time NFL Total Access last night. Jaime Dukes repeating the Super Bowl caliber Vikings BS.

After all the lies and half truths Lord Favre has spewed for the last 2 seasons and I'm supposed to believe he's willing to take a pay cut for Randy Moss?

I'm truly disgusted by the hero worship that goes on in this country all the time.

I think it's been clear that both sides have been toying with the idea of Favre playing for the Vikings since GB decided to go with Rodgers after Brett retired the first time. It was a conversation. It wasn't one side pursuing the other.

I'm so happy my wall o' Favre can stay up, if he stays retired. It was going to be moved to the bathroom if he went to Minnesota.

I was going to start a camp fire with my jerseys. All I know is I don't have to take crap from my Viking buddies, and I have a lot of them. I've been referring to them as Charlie Brown about ready to kick the football.

I wonder how ticket sales are going in Minnesota?

Latest rumor i heard is the Pats are interested in Lord Favre, They aren't sold on Brady's knee and would love to be able to bring Favre in. If this is true i can understand why he turned down the Vikes for a chance to play with the wr he wanted in NE. That would be scary watching him play with Moss Welker and Galloway as your top 3 wrs. Stay Tuned.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I also don't think Belichick could deal with Favre's INTs.

Please put a question mark on the thread's title:

http://blogs.usatoday.com/thehuddle 

Brett Favre said it's "very unlikely" he'll change his mind about playing again in the NFL.

But in comments to SI.com, Favre acknowledged that he could be enticed to play at some point this season.

"I really believe this is it," Favre told the site. "I truly, truly believe it's over.
But if someone calls Nov. 1, who knows?''


Update: Favre's agent, Bus Cook, continued to leave the door open to a return in comments to ESPN today (via PFT): "I don't think he'd go to a team unless it was a contender. In fact, he probably wouldn't go to a team unless its the Minnesota Vikings."

I wanted Brett to come back. There is a good chance he answers that call if he feels better after a longer period of time.

Looks like that anguish wasn't pr like I thought. That's good to know. I hope Favre sticks to his decision this time. Yes he has the right to change his mind again and again, but his legacy has taken a pounding because of all this indecision and I personally don't want to see him become a laughing stock.

I think even he knows that the likely hood of him going to a team in mid season that isn't a west coast team is slim to none. I know people are thinking maybe New England, Indy, or Pittsburgh assuming injury but he doesn't know those systems and he'd self-destruct fast.

Three options I see for Favre.

1. Favre stays retired.

2. Minnesota goes on a losing streak early and gives him a call.

3. Aaron Rodgers gets hurt early with a major injury and maybe the egos are put aside on both ends and Favre has one last run in Green and Gold.

Personally, I hope option one wins out.

dfosterf (17m) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (17m) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (19m) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (23m) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (25m) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (25m) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (28m) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (29m) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (30m) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (1h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (1h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (2h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (2h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (2h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (18h) : 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?
Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh
Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.
Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?
