Green Bay did not let #4 run the franchise. He had a temper tantrum because the Pack would not sign Moss.

Agreed. It's thanks to Ted Thompson that this franchise is being run by management, not Bert Favor.

I don't see any "blame" on Favre. Although a lot of the problems that arose at the end of his time here were caused by Favre himself.
I DO think he had the opinion that without HIM as QB, the Packers would suck.
Fortunately, he was wrong.
My feelings are that Rodgers saw that whole ugly event, and has learned what NOT to do.
Don't act like your crap doesn't stink. Don't flip flop over "will I retire, or play next season?" over and over, year after year.
I do believe that Rodgers KNOWS his value, but won't act like a prima donna.

Fortunately we never had to find out what our team was like with the first one.

For all we know the team would have sucked without him had we not landed Rodgers

Uh....yes, he WAS wrong.
As I said, fortunately for us AND the Packers.
Favre thought he wasn’t replaceable. And in most cases, he probably would have been right. But Rodgers has done a darn good job, hasn’t he?
I doubt we will be that lucky again.

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe
