By the way, don’t you think you’re giving a little too much adoration to a guy who coughs it up almost as much as he scores?

Shouldn’t you be crying over the “cheap shots” and revenge on your own piece of shit blog? Also, if what the Saints did was cheap, how do you feel about Jared Allen’s hit on Matt Schaub last year cunt?

[...] Total Packers: There’s nothing like raising one’s spirits by reading whining, bitching, moaning, and deep throating from Packer fans. Can you believe they’re still talking about Brett Favre? For fucking what? You have a franchise quarterback again, dick weeds, get over him. You should be talking about how much Kampman hates your team now and how he’ll probably end up in Minnesota to form the The Great White Bookends with Jared Allen. Mmmmmm … vanilla-ey. [...]

Are you really that dense Derek? Favre had no intention of coming back to the Jets regardless of who they drafted. He only went there so he could retire, get his release, and sign with the Vikings. Also, it’s because Favre was the face of the franchise that they couldn’t trade him. If you’re a GM and you want to keep your job, a simple rule would be “Don’t trade your team’s most decorated player to a fucking rival”.

As for a curse, those are weak minded tools like Cubs and Red Sox fans, I don’t believe that. The only curse Favre has put anything on is my senses for having to see and hear him cry like a pussy every fucking offseason for the last seven years.

Once again…. I’m just happy that Rogers is ours and Favre is dressed like Barney the Dinosaur, so those fools can deal with his drama.

There is one thing that you are forgetting. Favre did not know that the Jets would draft Mark Sanchez with the 5th pick in the draft. Once they did they had no use for him and he asked for his release. The Jets had no reason to deny him that as he would not be welcome back. Pretty sad that the Jets were willing to do that for a guy that played there one year, but the Packers weren’t for the face of their franchise. Instead they traded him to a 4-12 team that ran a completely different offense so that he could fail.

I am glad Ted Thompson’s team got its ass kicked twice this year by Favre and I hope it happens twice in 2010. The curse of Favre is going to make the Curse of the Bambino look like childs play.

So what if Rodgers is 0-1 after his first playoff game? Favre went 0-3 against the Cowboys in his first three consecutive playoff seasons. And yes, Brett Favre played better this year. Although one could certainly make an argument that Favre had a better surrounding cast what with the league’s back (Though after watching the NFC Championship, I think second best back would be more suitable) and an arguably better line (At least for most of the season). The difference here is that Aaron Rodgers is only 26 while Brett is 40. Brett has a year left at most while Rodgers hasn’t even hit his ceiling yet and barring injury, will have many more years to come.

Who will the Vikings have? Donovan McNabb? Michael Vick? Sage Rosenfels? Face it, Favre was a one time window that has closed for your team. They are still a pretty solid team but they are missing the most important piece, a QB. Now they’ll waste another year hoping a 41 year old can deliver them to the promised land when they should be finding someone who can keep them viable past 2010 (When they become the Los Angeles Vikings)

As for why not to trade Favre, maybe it was because the guy was still under contract for three years, and we didnt owe him a god damn thing besides a pay check. Maybe you’re fine with your organization giving out hand jobs at will and sacrificing small animals in service to the land baron but I’m glad the Packers didn’t just hand serve the guy what he wanted. Did they handle the departure well? Fuck and no. But did they cater to that diva cunt’s demands? No, so fuck you and fuck Brett Favre.

P.S. Before you bring this up, my hate for Favre is not due to him leaving or playing for the Vikings. It’s because I’ve been hearing this will he or won’t he shit since 2003 and frankly it’s tiring.

Rodgers hasnt had one playoff game and he chocked. So far he is 1 for 1 in chocking playoff games. Yes Rodgers is younger and is a great player. The fact is and you cant deny Favre is a better QB and only time will tell on how well Rodgers does. I do believe Favre was number two in the league.

Now on to my next point. If the Packers were really interested in “building their team” and not trying to give Favre the boot why not just trade him for a play or a few draft choices. They ended up with nothing for getting rid of him to the Jets. They could have traded him to the Vikings right away and got something. Yes he will beat your for maybe 2 or 3 years every game you play him and you might not go anywhere in the playoffs for those years but hey it is already happening and you were looking a few years ahead anyways.

It’s funny, you guys will bash Rodgers but I know as well as you do that you wish he was your team’s QB just like you wished Favre was yours all the years prior to last. ANd you better pray the old man does come back, otherwise you’ll be left with Sagevaris Jacksonfels and you’re fanbase will go back into hiding for a few years.

And you can bash Rodgers for choking all you want but the fact of the matter is, despite choking at the end of the Cardinals game, he’s young and hasn’t made this a habit like ol’ Brett (See almost every big game of the last eleven years) Last year should be plenty of proof that he’ll never change. He was playing great all year, avoiding mistakes and even was in the running for MVP. Then you got to the big game and what did he do? He shit the bed, just like always.
