Brett Favre
So,
I come in to work today w/ my white Brett Favre jersey on.. only to read the news.. and see this!
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...x.html?cnn=yes
Now, as the greatest QB of all times.. Teams should be begging for him.. WTF?
BTW, I'm NOT a Packers fan.. I'm a fan of players, not teams.
Questions or comments on this Sichiation (that's situation for the northerners)

Re: Brett Favre
I'm so tired of hearing about that ****** and the ------- packer. I live 30 miles from GB so I hear this ---- all day being in packer country. Now with how the pack stands they should be like the 1980's packers and suck ***. Then see where all these fareweather fans stand. Man I never saw people wearing pack ---- or talking about them in the Lynn Dicky days of the eighties. Then they wasted their pick in 88 for Mandrich instead of picking Barry Sanders. Oh and then the Magic man Dan Mackowski, what a ------- douche. I was into football back in the 80's and early 90's then when Farve came on they started racking up some wins then...packers fans came out of the wood work. Fairweather *****. Now Brewer fans are real fans. They suck *** and pretty much always have and people have always been behind them. Packers for being a wackass organization for wanting to pay the dude 20 mil just to shutup and sit back instead of trading the guy for decent people they actually need. Sorry about the venting but I hear this ---- all day.

Re: Brett Favre
i understand his situation, i played football in HS for 4years. i would give my left nut to put a set of pads on again, no other feeling in the world like running 30 yards downfield and devastating someone. 
he is going about it like a bitch though, i htink he should take it like a man and go for a front office position. it a lifetime job, and i am willing to bet he'd end up coaching eventually anyways which is the next best thing to playing the game yourself

Re: Brett Favre
heres what SHOULD happen but wont
the open qb competition should continue.....loser of farvera vs rodgers gets traded to help lower salary cap. they have two great rook qb's from the previous draft..........
i understand their situation...they have to plan for the future.....but you also have to worry about now....
who would you rather learn from....brett or aaron...i figure brett should give another two years playing time(pending injuries). by then one of the backups should be able to step up.....
for ---- sakes......brett was runner up mvp last year....he's proven.......what has aaron done so far...nothing..
all due respect to rodgers....he has handled this situation with class...
if the packers ---- this up(which they already have) and farvera goes somewhere else(which he will).....i now have an NFL team that i hate..

My opinion... he only has a few more seasons if he really stays. He's played the past how many with MY packers so he might as well just stick it out. Otherwise, just retire and become an ESPN analyst like aikman and everyone else. Or if he's really that bored back home start coaching high school or college ball or something. It would be a shame to see him play his last season or two with someone other than the Pack. He'll prob just end up getting hurt or something anyway if he keeps playing.
.. and yes, they are literally my packers because i own shares
