Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I expected as much. McCarthy has to keep the team rolling....it wouldn't be very professional to let Favre come and go like that.

Bond · 07-11-2008, 05:34 PM

McCarthy has no power, it's all Ted Thompson.

To TT's house! Viva la Favre!

Clearly his only option is to play for the Cleveland Browns.

I'm sorry Bond, there seems to have been a misunderstanding. Apparently you're under the impression that we cared.

Bond · 07-11-2008, 05:48 PM

I apologize? If you don't care you didn't have to post in the thread that you didn't care about.

Brett Farve is an idiot for coming back like this.

I lost a lot of respect for him, he has nothing left to prove, this is just going to tarnish his legacy.

I hate this Jeremy Roenick way of getting out of a contract agreement.

Professor S · 07-11-2008, 06:26 PM

And we all the the transformation of a beloved sports hero into a pathetic douchebag...

He was probably always a pathetic douchebag - just the fact he was good at Football and didn't want to move his family far away so he stayed in one city made the allure that he was much more than a pathetic douchebag.

I just think it will be funny to watch Brett throw a 4 INT game as a Chicago Bear or Minnesota Viking in Lambeau...Will the fans cheer? Boo? Either way, wouldn't it be insulting? I look forward to this.

That is so not a funny image, Germy!

At least I have tickets to the home opener... I guess.

The Bears don't want his ass. I'm sorry we have Kyle Orton...who is young...and not coming and going from retirement.

Why? He tied Roethlisberger with most games won as a rookie in his first season, 9 or 10 I think. They weren't the most pretty games, and he got most of his help from Thomas Jones and the Bear's insanely good defense that year. But, unlike Grossman, he shows mobility in the pocket, consistency, and improvement. He's no Romo or Roethlisberger, but I think he could turn out to be a decent QB. And, if not, then the Bears are in the same position they have been in for the past oh....15 years.

We are approaching mid-July quickly, and preseasons will be starting soon. I don't care how legendary Favre is, I don't know what he expected to happen at this point in the year.
