Seems to me that when he "announced" his retirement, that freed up some money for the Packers to go out and acquire more talent. If he returns, doesn't that exceed the cap?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818120104790188682.post-66322929660539956912008-07-17T13:45:00.000-05:002008-07-17T13:45:00.000-05:00So now........I just read that a local sport shop ...So now........I just read that a local sport shop owner is offering Brett a $25,000.00 shopping spree if he will come back to the Packers. You're going to offer $25K to someone that already has more money than he will ever need???? This guy should cut his losses and support a local food pantry or other local charity. Pandering for publicity in itself is disgusting. The apocolypse is definitely upon us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818120104790188682.post-46421612829191448652008-07-17T08:42:00.000-05:002008-07-17T08:42:00.000-05:00I consider myself somewhat of a Packer fan, althou...I consider myself somewhat of a Packer fan, although I always chuckle at the total "saturation" the media gives the team, both in season and off. I've often commented that even if we could see the mushroom cloud rising over the horizon, the lead story on all local channels would be the Packers. What is sad about this is that the warm and loving legacy that Brett Favre walked away with a few months ago has been destroyed. He left with everyone saying "class act", and now he is just another spoiled primadonna athlete, who just can't accept that time marches on. He had it all in the palm of his hand to be the hero forever here. Now it's a sham.<BR/><BR/>The next thing will be all of the Packer fatihful calling for Ted Thompson's head on a platter, wanting a clean sweep of the front office, because their beloved quarterback has been wronged. Even if Favre had issues with management, why air them now? Is it really going to change anything? NO. All he succeeded in doing is making it perfectly clear that he "loved" Green Bay, as long as he was the star and got his own way. Terrible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
