Dammit, I’m Starting to Like This Aaron Rodgers Guy
Oct 4th
The headline of this recent Star Tribune story really says it all when it comes to the other quarterback playing in Monday night’s Green Bay Packers-Minnesota Vikings contest: “Rodgers shouts with silence.” Amid all the bullshitting, finger pointing, chest thumping and other pissing matches on display this week in preparation for Vikings’ QB Brett Favre’s [...]
Brad Childress – Too Good to Be True!
Oct 2nd
It’s no secret that we like to make fun of certain things and people here at Total Packers. Two of the things that get our panties wet is when the Minnesota Vikings screw up and when Vikings’ coach Brad Childress says something stupid, which, now that we think of it, is pretty much every time [...]
It’s Favreday!
Oct 2nd
And why not? The hype machine is spinning out of control, and we’re having trouble keeping up with it, so we thought we’d rename Friday, Favreday just to catch you up. So what Favrelous things have transpired, you say? Well, some pretty interesting things related to the Green Bay Packers’ and Minnesota Vikings’ Monday Night [...]
Get To Know A Viking: Bizarro Brett
Oct 1st
We all know about Brett Favre. Thanks to the breathless coverage and retellings of his life story over the past two decades, we know all about him. We know his middle name is frickin’ Lorenzo. We know all about his family and his wife’s cancer survival and activism. Many of us can recite his accomplishments [...]
Why Fret About Brett?
Sep 30th
Let me pose a question. Why fret about Brett? Really. I admit there has been a lot of hype and drama over the last year and a half; even the last five years with Brett Favre’s “will he or won’t he retire” game. Personally, I was really upset over Brett’s decision to retire from the [...]
Packers vs. Vikings: Let the Bullshit Fest Begin
Sep 29th
It’s only Tuesday, and already the spin machine is churning in anticipation of next Monday night’s meeting between the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings at the MetroBarn. Of course, Vikings’ coach Brad Childress’ latest comments are the lamest from either side, telling reporters the team’s Winter Park facility “won’t be vibrating” this week [...]
The Brett Favre Effect
Sep 28th
They may not be able to sell many more season tickets because, let’s face it, the Minnesota Vikings have the worst fans in the world, but they are a hell of a lot better team with Brett Favre playing quarterback. Despite what I think of him personally, Favre’s game-winning throw to Greg Lewis yesterday was [...]
Has Favre Put the Packers On the Hot Seat?
Sep 25th
Sometimes, well… most of the time, no… all of the time, we wish Brett Favre would just keep his piehole shut. No, this has nothing to do with his aw shucks, good-ole-boy act or what he is or isn’t saying to Green Bay Packers fans. This has to do with very serious consequences the Packers [...]
Top 10 Green Bay Packers Stats We Wished They Kept
Sep 16th
It’s our first (and who knows, maybe last) Green Bay Packers’ Top 10 List – Top 10 Green Bay Packers’ Stats We Wished They Kept. 10. Times Aaron Rodgers has been asked about Brett Favre. 9. Games in which Mike McCarthy didn’t have a pen or pencil stuck in his hat. 8. Messages Reggie White received [...]
How Much More Ridiculous Can This Brett Favre Shit Get?
Sep 15th
Very, apparently. While sifting through the usual crap in my inbox this morning, I happened upon a press release from some knucklehead named Chris Carriveau, who is heading up a “purification ceremony” at the “BLACK SUNDAY EVENT” Saturday, Oct. 31 — the day before Brett Favre returns to Lambeau Field to play the Green Bay [...]
What Brett Favre Told Packers Fans
Sep 12th
From where I stand there is one big thing missing from this ridiculous Brett Favre saga – an acceptable message from him directly to Green Bay Packers’ fans. Doesn’t anyone think Favre owes Packers’ fans an explanation? Favre has enjoyed arguably the best career of any Packers’ player. Sure, he gave the Packers a lot, [...]
Brad Childress – Idiot
Sep 11th
In yet another display of why he is quite possibly the worst coach in the NFL, Minnesota Vikings’ coach Brad Childress surprised many Thursday by releasing wideout Bobby Wade only a week after Wade agreed to rework his contract and take a $1.5 million pay cut. His replacement? Greg Lewis, a former Philadelphia Eagles’ receiver [...]
Favre May Not Play 16, Addresses Team
Sep 9th
Some interesting news came out of Minnesota today. Former Green Bay Packers quarterback and current Minnesota Vikings scumbag Brett Favre said that he may not be able to play all 16 games this year. That is, not that he doesn’t want to play all 16, but more that he would sit if his health isn’t [...]
Worst Fans in America: Minnesota Vikings
Sep 5th
It’s something that we’ve always known here at Total Packers, but now other people are starting to figure it out. Who are the worst fans in all of pro sports? Minnesota Vikings fans, of course! While we’re waiting for Ted Thompson to figure out who he’s going to cut (uhhhh… Jarrett Bush, maybe?), we thought [...]
Favre Looks Solid, Unspectacular on Monday Night
Aug 31st
As most fans and former fans of Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Brett Favre, I had one eye on Reliant Stadium in Houston tonight, when the Vikings took on the Houston Texans. After Favre’s less-than-stellar debut for the Vikings last week (1-for-4, 4 yards), I think some of us were hoping Favre was washed up, that perhaps [...]
Favre a Dividing Force in Minnesota?
Aug 26th
Well, you had to know this would happen. It appears that one Brett Favre is creating “issues” or perhaps a “schism” in the Minnesota Vikings locker room, something that can only be good for the Green Bay Packers and the rest of the NFC North. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that several Vikings favor the team’s [...]
Brett Favre’s Magical Debut!
Aug 21st
Brett Favre made his Minnesota Vikings’ debut tonight. In front of thousands of frenzied Vikings’ fans, he and the rest of the Minnesota Vikings’ first teamers promptly laid an egg. What a great start to what is already being called an historic season by Minnesota faithful. The game is still in progress, but a YouTube [...]
Who Can Get Enough of Brett Favre?
Aug 21st
Not us, that’s for sure. Hell, you would think we’re ESPN with as much coverage as we give that asshole. However, today we have something a little less serious for everyone’s favorite Minnesota Vikings/ex-Green Bay Packers quarterback, Brett Favre. This week’s previous posts on Favre and the Vikings can be found: The Difference Between the [...]
The Difference Between the Packers and the Vikings
Aug 20th
The difference between the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings? History? Tradition? Super Bowl titles? Championships? Class? Yes. All of those things. The Packers have them. The Vikings don’t, and they never will. However, I think the biggest difference between the Packers and Vikings are their fans. I grabbed this screen shot from the [...]
Illustrating The Vikings Chances: Brett Favre Statistical Breakdown
Aug 19th
A lot has been said about what Brett Favre will mean to the Minnesota Vikings. Certainly, I think it’s fair to say the Vikings are now the favorite to win the division. Some pundits have tapped them as the favorite to win the Super Bowl. But hold the phone. The Vikings were going to be [...]
