True Trippster........good point about the new system in NY.
I guess I can't blame Favre. If you are gonna lose, at least he gets to do it playing indoors, where he won't get cold.
LOLOL!!!

IMHO this is nothingbut a "Bait" post, someone hoping to get a reaction.
Good to see Real Packer fans on this forum are not taking the bait.

The man is a legend but without his teammates he is just "one man". Reggie White, Sterling Sharpe,Edgar Bennet,The Gravedigger,Tauscher and Clifton, Keith Jackson, William Henderson, Robert Brooks,Don Beebe,..........I can go on and on the number of Great and exceptional players who were teamates that made Brett the legend he became in Green Bay.

Brett was the constant, but without his teammates he would not be the qb he is.

Just a note, real Packer fans know that it was the signing of Reggie White which started the turn around in Green Bay.

Brett came a year later, the Packers were already turning in the right direction when he became the starter, he just help keep the ball rolling.

Emotions are high right now on this forum, in time they will settle down and Packer fans will realize that this year and maybe next could be two of the most exciting years since 96 and 97.

He's a man, not a god. He's got freewill to do what he would like; fans have their own freewill to root for him or condemn him, depending on their preference. The End.

Ya, rumor has it now that Favre is getting a plexiglass bellybutton installed so that Formo can see where he going! ::wink:

Formo is too late. Now he has to get in line behind Ziggy and Colonel Klink.

Whatever you guys. I just refuse to let FAVRE ruin my feelings for MY team any more than he has as a Packer. If that means accepting him with open arms, then damnit, so be it.

I'm unemployed ATM.. I'm fulling willing to wipe his ass and do any of the stuff he doesn't want to do in order to put food on the table. Favre.. Call me!

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

I didn't have much of a comeback, except blowing raspberries.. And I didn't know how to write that down.. How DO you express 'raspberries' in text? So I figured the best thing would be a video response.

Glad you liked it.. Just wish I could have seen your reaction. 🙂

I just laughed!!!
Not much else to say!

I wish i had the capabilities to video respond.......I don't have that though.
So just imagaine...........what would Cheesey come up with???LOLOLOL!!!

I don't blame you for your reasoning. Favre is "your guy" now, so what choice do you have? If you love YOUR team, and they make a move you don't really like, your only 2 choices is to stay with them (which i respect you for doing that!) or "jump team" as so many people do now adays.

Favre actually said he plays for the love of winning.

"Formo" wrote:

If that were true, why did he retire from the Jets and then run to the Vikings instead of back to the Jets? Mainly, why did he retire?

"Zero2Cool" wrote:

lol

It was the JETS. That's why. There was no winning in that city.

Oh, and his torn bicep may have something to do with it.

"Formo" wrote:

How far did the JETS go last year? I believe AFC Championship, without a sure fire HoF QB at the helm and the games 'best' RB. 🙂

This was an old thread. The year with Favre the Jets only went 8-8. And the year before that? Much, much worse. So, at the time of my post.. I was pretty much correct. 🙂

The packers offered him money to retire

"nickb364" wrote:

No. They didn't. He was already retired. They offered him money for the rights to use his image in marketing campaigns for the next ten years. His return to the league, in any uniform, rendered such a deal moot.
