Talk about having a team around you. How many hall of famers did Bart play with – something like 14. So far, Brett has had one, Reggie White. Bart never had to carry the Pack like Brett did and Aaron Rodgers wouldn’t be half the QB he is if he didn’t learn from Brett. Ted Thompson gutted the Pack in 2005 and started building from the draft, with Rodger’s being pick first as the QB of the future. How would you feel if you were Brett, had all the major NFL passing records, played every game for 17 years and found the Pack was using you to keep people in the sets without helping you win through free agency. Does anyone doubt the Pack would have been in the SB in 2007 if Ted would have gotten Randy Moss for nothing. At 39, Brett could not wait for Ted to bring the team up to snuff through the draft, so he wanted out of Green Bay. So both Ted and Brett got what then wanted, but I think it might have been better for the Pack to get a few free agents for Brett and let him play two more years. If football is a business, it seems the Pack let a lucrative opportunity go to the Jets and now the Vikings. Ted, you chose poorly. Bart, your opinion means nothing, because I saw you play in your last two years and you should have retired after 13 years, because you could not throw and out pattern to save your life. Brett still has a gun Period.
