Favre was forced out. Just like Montana. Both had teams with promising understudies. Both still had something left in the tank. Both made their former teams their #####.Booing the egomaniac drama queen who retired 3 or 4 times = classBooing the guy who brought the the Packer back to relevance to a generation of fans = lack of class.yeah, fans have "lack of class"...............................The fans in Green Bay continue to fuel Favre's ego by booing every time he has the ball. It feeds his mystique. Farve expects this from Green Bay fans and laughs at their lack of class while having his way with his former team.
1st) Favre announced retirement2nd) Montana went to KC, not to the CowboysFavre was forced out. Just like Montana.
What is it about retiring you don't comprehend?Look they had to give Rodgers the job or he would have left the next year. They did what was best for the team even if it hurts the team short term.Rodgers is 25 and Favre 40.Favre was forced out. Just like Montana. Both had teams with promising understudies.

They could have traded Rogers for at least 2 number 1 picks and taken a another top knotch QB in the draft.What is it about retiring you don't comprehend?Look they had to give Rodgers the job or he would have left the next year.

You have no clue. Go troll in another thread.1st) Favre announced retirementFavre was forced out. Just like Montana.
I bow before you. The Pack may not win, but you get the cred for calling it.I thought you wereCheck out the HAVNER key to game Thread and projected to get all Finleys reception thread that was poopooed this morning!!!!!!!!
He has looked horrible all year.. Take away the Cleveland game and he is average at best..AD looks horrible running the ball today.

Both got traded, guy. I bet Montana wouldn't have had a problem playing for a division rival; especially if they ran the same system and he was able to play for his former coordinator in SF.1st) Favre announced retirement2nd) Montana went to KC, not to the CowboysFavre was forced out.

Yep, he sucks.Peterson has lost a step this year. I'd be hard pressed to say he'll be a top 10 RB at the end of the year. The beating he subjects himself to is clearly slowing him.
I know! His decline is pretty hilarious.He has looked horrible all year.. Take away the Cleveland game and he is average at best..AD looks horrible running the ball today.![]()
That's the best you can come up with? I've watched every down of every Vikings game this year. He is not hitting the holes as hard and isn't breaking to the outside like he did last year. In past years, it was extremely difficult to bring him down. This year he almost always goes down on the first hit.Hov34 said:Yep, he sucks.EdwardCat said:Peterson has lost a step this year.

He isn't a top 5 RB right now, most people took him #1 overall.. Drew, Benson, Johnson are all better.. Drew and Johnson are way better.. Benson is more consistent.EdwardCat said:I know!

I'll give some of the credit to the Packers D - some of the blame on the Vikings line - but I have seen AD try to hit the hole and just get stacked at the line, miss the running lane or just simply bounce it outside at the wrong time. Something seems off.That's the best you can come up with? I've watched every down of every Vikings game this year.

Taking a dig at me does nothing to add to the discussion. If you have a better take on Favre let's hear it.I'm not really for or against Favre. I certainly don't wish him ill. But as an observer, I'd say his behavior appears destructive. There are many former Packer players that are really pissed off about him joining the Vikings. I saw one calling him a traitor on ESPN this morning. Do you think that guy is putting on lipstick?Jobber said:Stinger Ray said:BeaverCleaver said:Hope you get some professional help too.taylormeetstheismann said:If a player jacks around a coaching staff, general manager and his legions of fans with a self-absorbed and deterimental annual ritual about retiring by pushing it deeper and deeper into the off-season until the situation becomes so problematic that the team finally draws the line and then reluctantly gives into a trade demand from this selfish primadonna of a player to go to another team in another conference where the trade agreement actually contains a clause specificially designed to protect the future interests of team's inside information by making a subsequent trade to any of their three key divisional rivals highly punitive and then that player capriously and maliciously engineers another disingenuous retirement in order to defeat the clause to fill some Machiavellian desire to exact some warped sense of revenge, then by all means the fans are entitled to relentless boo this jerk during ever play all day long.I don't see where the fans (who ultimately foot the bill) should be more thankful than the players (of which many make millions) in any situation. And this situation in particular showcases a first ballet hall of famer whose behavior is self serving at best and at worst highlights an ego so hungry for attention that no on field accomplishment or amount of adulation from the fans will ever satiate it. His accomplishments are legendary and his boyish charm is endearing but his act is wearing thin. I think he will find life ever more difficult when he is no longer the center of attention and the roar of the crowd finally fades away. Hopefully, Favre will seek out professional help to resolve whatever issues are troubling him before his behavior turns even more ruinous.kaa said:Fan etiquette:If the player is traded away or cut, it obviously wasn't his fault he left. So you cheer him when he returns on a different team.If the player leaves of his own accord, or joins the enemy of his own free will, you boo him when he returns on a different team.Favre was let go, but he willingly joined the VIKINGS. So, you boo.![]()

I picture this guy stepping away from his computer after that post to put on lipstick with Goodbye Horses cranking in the background.
He also hasn't had any holes to run through as he consistently did in the previous two seasons either.That's the best you can come up with? I've watched every down of every Vikings game this year.

He hasn't? He's averaging 2.7 ypc fyi.I don't know about that.

Peterson of the previous two seasons makes something out of nothing. Peterson of this year makes a play happen only if there's a clear hole open for him. He lacks any of the flash of previous years.He also hasn't had any holes to run through as he consistently did in the previous two seasons either.That's the best you can come up with?
