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 [...]
Douchey Bears Fan Has a Point: Ashton Kutcher Rips Favre
Aug 18th
Though he played one on TV, Ashton Kutcher is no Green Bay Packers’ fan. He is a well known bottom feeder, Chicago Bears fan. But today, he had the Packer Nation’s back as he ripped Brett Favre from inside a nice, yet not over the top set trailer. See the video below. Kutcher brings up [...]
Reports: Favre to Sign with Vikings Today
Aug 18th
Well, that was quick. After opening the door on the Brett Favre saga again yesterday when Jay Glazer reported he thought Favre would sign with the Minnesota Vikings, that very scenario is apparently unfolding right now. Favre boarded a plane in Hattiesburg, Miss. this morning bound for St. Paul. According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, [...]
Hey, Remember Me? I’m Brett Favre
Aug 17th
Yeah, just when we thought we wouldn’t have to mention the name Brett Favre again… Well, let’s be honest. We knew we were going to have to mention Favre again. We knew we were going to have to talk about Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. And so today it starts in earnest again. Fox [...]
Brett Favre – The Aftermath
Jul 29th
Now we survey the wreckage. Brett Favre’s decision to remain retired instead of joining the Minnesota Vikings, has some serious ramifications. The Vikings organization… hahahahahahahhahahaha!… sorry, lost my train of thought. Oh yeah, the Vikings. Let’s start at the top, with the chief bonehead. Vikings coach Brad Childress released a statement yesterday, saying the Favre [...]
Brett Favre Drama Is Over – At Least For Now
Jul 28th
Brett Favre will not join the Minnesota Vikings, according to coach Brad Childress. Childress sent a text message to the Associated Press confirming as much. While I think we can all breathe a big sigh of relief that all of this nonsense and bullshit is over with (again), I don’t think it will change the [...]
Brett Favre Conflicted, Anguished About Joining Vikings
Jul 23rd
Former Green Bay Packers’ quarterback Brett Favre is said to be conflicted about joining the Minnesota Vikings. ESPN uses the word “anguished” in relation to Favre’s decision-making process. So, Favre to the Vikings isn’t quite a done deal yet. However, Favre apparently feels a bit of obligation to Minnesota’s coaching staff, who have been recruiting [...]
Packers Weekend Video: Jared Allen
Jul 19th
Jared Allen, as with all members of the Minnesota Vikings, is a cunt. And typically, we use these Sundays before the NFL season begins to put the spotlight on a member of the Green Bay Packers. However, this Sunday is different because Total Packers now has it’s own YouTube channel. And so, since we haven’t [...]
Golden Boy vs. Country Boy: Hornung Blasts Favre
Jul 15th
Apparently, some Green Bay Packers’ legends haven’t forgotten about fidelity, loyalty and Packer Pride. Or maybe Paul Hornung thinks the Minnesota Vikings suck that much (they do). Either way, Hornung doesn’t seem to think Brett Favre wearing Vikings’ purple necessarily guarantees a Lombardi Trophy for our idiot neighbors in the land o’ lakes. “(Favre) ain’t going to [...]
Brett Favre Thinks He’s Vince Lombardi
Jun 15th
Brett Favre compared himself to Vince Lombardi. That’s the biggest thing I pulled from the former Green Bay Packer’s appearance on Joe Buck Live, Monday night. And this, well, makes me despise that shitbag even more. When asked how he would respond to fans who questioned how he could play for one of the Packers [...]
Brett Favre Fail!
Jun 15th
I thought that since former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre is a guest on the first episode of Joe Buck Live, tonight, I’d post this beauty. And by beauty, I mean complete Fail! We’ll be waiting on the edge of our seats to hear what Favre has to say tonight (actually, we won’t be [...]
Favre The Diva
Jun 13th
No, this is not another Brett Favre rant about how he is screwing Green Bay Packers fans. This is a little bit on the lighter side, though, still about Brett Favre. On our Twitter stream (which you can follow @TotalPackers), we came across @favrethediva the other day. In some cases, accounts are created just to [...]
The Great Brett Favre Standoff: ESPN vs. Fox Sports Deux
Jun 11th
It’s like two great fighters going up against each other, only they’re slinging words at each other rather than punches. And one of them is a bloated, arrogant behemouth that might be past his prime. I am, of course, speaking of the he said, she said commentary going back and forth between ESPN and Fox [...]
Favre, Favre, Favre… and Benedict Arnold
Jun 8th
Yes, it’s the daily update on your former Green Bay Packers’ hero about to become Benedict Arnold, Brett Favre. Before I point out the obvious, and broach a subject that is sure to incite rage in some Packers fans, let’s catch up with the news on the almighty Favre. Yesterday, it was revealed the Favre [...]
Brett Favre Has Surgery on Injured Shoulder
Jun 7th
In the surest sign yet that former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre will play football for the Minnesota Vikings this season, ESPN has reported Favre has undergone shoulder surgery. Favre had arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn biceps tendon, but remains uncommitted about playing because the shoulder isn’t 100 percent, according to the ESPN [...]
Fran Tarkenton Is Pissed: An Ode To The NFL Writers
May 28th
While there isn’t a Minnesota Vikings player that we like, Fran Tarkenton is making a concerted effort to be the first. What the hell are you blathering about? Tarkenton, the greatest quarterback (and possibly player), to ever don the putrid purple of the Minnesota Vikings has been making the radio show rounds the past two [...]
Vikings Fans vs. Cubs Fans
May 22nd
I’m going to go a little off topic today. First, it’s goddam near Memorial Day, and I’m in a summer sort of mood. Second, the Milwaukee Brewers are one of the hottest teams in baseball, and while the Brewers are not the Green Bay Packers, they are the #1 baseball team here at Total Packers. [...]
Brett Favre Update: Day 576
May 11th
As you know, we really love writing about Brett Favre this time of year, instead of the Green Bay Packers, but I would be remiss if I didn’t at least mention what has (or has not, depending on who you’re reading) gone down since Friday. First, you may recall the seemingly conflicting reports from last [...]
ESPN: Favre Could Play For Vikings If Healthy
May 8th
Just when we were going to go and write something non-Brett Favre related, when we thought that Brett Favre was really retired for good, when our hatred for the Minnesota Vikings had been reduced from a boil to an offseason simmer, ESPN came out with the report that Brett Favre could still play for the [...]
