Let's look at the Hillbilly Messiah's quote, shall we?
By far? Look, we all love the Pack, but "By far"? This statement is made for one reason, and one reason only. Should the Packers lose, this allows him to blame Rodgers for the loss. More proof coming up soon.
Best QB. Nice comment Brett, that's very nice of you. Oh look though. The best WR corp EVER.
Oh, so, of COURSE Rodgers is playing well. He has the best WR corp. EVER.
And, let's be clear - it's FAR better than the stumblebums that he was saddled with and won with and set records with. Don't you forget that media - Brett Favre could take any WR and make them look good. Rodgers has the best WR corp ever, even a monkey could throw for 20 TDs!
Oh, and look, Rodgers gets the benefit of Dom Capers and a great defense! Brett never had that! Favre never had an MVP like defense. Especially in 1996. Rodgers is the beneficiary of the best WR corp EVER and an MVP defense.
Anyone taking these statements at face value or some attempt to rebuild a bridge are delusional. This is yet another complaint - Brett never had the WRs and never had the defense that Rodgers has.
He's sucking some of you back in already...

Favre should just avoid commenting on the Packers. We don't need him and anything he says can be interpreted in many different ways, possibly creating unneeded distractions.
Deadspin thinks its real this time because Favre has finally decided to profit off of his retirement by selling memorabilia through his site. They may be on to something.
Why would I give a #$%! what the vikings QB has to say.
I respect Fran Tarkington more than Favrebilly at this point.

He'll eventually come to Green Bay in an attempt to amend the differences and put the problems behind. His legacy is meaningless without us, since the Jets' fans despise him and Vikings' fans only accepted him as a hired gun, but both are very unlikely to invite or honor him in the future.
The biggest turnover machine in the history of the league is retiring, big whoop. The only people who are sad are the favre apologists and the defensive backs in the NFL. Every defensive back will have to watch his INT stat go down next year that the human turnover is gone.
Favre can now look forward to mowing his lawn all day and hunting for frogs for the dinner table.

Man, you make some Great Points!
Hating him is Fun and Easy.
As much as I like a challenge, I don't think I could come up with a reason to Not hate him, if there was a gun to my head.
MAN, I hate him.
noticed Favre snubbed the Falcon's with that poster
Packers are 4-1 vs former Favre teams this year

I am sure Rodgers internally is taking this as a dig against him.
I hope it riles him up and gets him to match his game against ATL.
Can't risk opening it at work as the headline says (NSFW), but Deadspin now has a story claiming a masseuse got dirty texts from Vikings players, including one Brett Favre.
LOL

I can't believe you guys still spend some much time on this POS.

Listening to Homer on ESPN Milwaukee, he has the same opinion as you did CAPF95.
HA! I'm listening to Homer right now too. Concur with H5
I will follow him..., makes me laugh every time I hear him play it.
Boris - Did you catch the caller earlier who said he dreamt that Favre would deliver the pregame speech to the Packers on Sunday? So stupidâĶ

Was listening to KFAN on the way home and only caught a chunk, but I swear they were talking about some physical therapist from the queens that is complaining about some texting thing with Brett.
No links or anything yet, but keep an ear out for Lord Byron's return!

see deadspin, they have the story
Green Bay Packer organization sentiment towards Brett Favre is exhibited from the following text extracted from the Wikipedia website:
"After Brett Favre stated his intent to retire in May 2008, the Packers announced that his #4 would be retired in a ceremony during the team's 2008 opening game against the Minnesota Vikings. The ceremony was cancelled following Favre's subsequent decision to return to the game, and he was traded to the New York Jets. In March 2009, the Packers indicated that the team still intends to retire Favre's number, but due to the circumstances surrounding his departure from the team, no timeline had been set."
I would expect loyal Packer fans to follow the same attitude represented by the football organization we support.

Do you have a pamphlet or a newsletter that fully explains the rules that loyal Packer fans must follow?

God intended text messages to be of naked folk. "bible-like"

I doubt he gives a flying flip about the people he played with. He played with James Campen for several years and threw him under the bus on national tv to further his agenda.
Bert Favor can go f?ck himself by shoving a Bible up his arse...
Was I too harsh?

Yeah, considering he told Peppers to go beat the Packers in Week 17 shows he's still a putz. Just disappear for 5 years. Don't make any commercials for Flex-All or Wrangler or Sears. Just hide.
quote:says Thompson. "Feelings are still pretty raw around here.
That about sums it up for me right now too. Maybe if he lives another 40 years there will be a generation of Packer Fans who will believe the Packer hype about him and not remember how he left, and then his number can be retired - maybe.
Favre's recent career has been filled with Bible references. Certainly Exodus figured prominantly, and recently there has been Revelation after Revelation. And don't forget the Letters to the Corinthians, or whatever that massage therapist's name was. Then there was the picture of his Deuteronomy. Of course now he is sticking primarily to Lamentations.

not at all, not at all. if it's true he's going biblical it's only a ploy just like everything else.
