Ive been a packer fan since 92
Well then. You certainly speak with authority!
Hilarious.

I saw this ‘petition’ yesterday. Definition of ‘pissing into the wind’
I’m not happy either, but we’re 4-4. This isn’t Kevin Bacon in Animal House YET. McCrappy going? Perhaps, but we don’t need to go back to the drawing board and fire ‘em both after a 4-4 start. If we go 6-10 again, TT opens up to using free agency/trades more, and hires a guy like Gruden for 2010, we can turn it around. Throwing out everyone’s far too much of a kneejerk reaction that’d set the franchise back 2 years or so.
I have no trouble signing it (and I’ve been a Packer fan since ’66). But I have no problem waiting until the end of the season… yet I have no ‘reason’ to believe anything is going to change by then either (e.g. I have some optimism but we just lost to a 0-7 team…)– call back after Dallas, Pitts and Ravens.
Lets see here…Brett led them to a drive to win the game in 95 vs Pitt?
That the famous Thigpen drop in the endzone game?
I was at that game and yes was snowing, but not like the person said..

Proof of not snowing like crazy, .03 snow? Yeah okay
If you want to have any creditability in your post,get your facts right first
Longest opening sentence in history.
I like signatory #450.
To bad people truly think a online petition is valid…
Everyone and their mother has tried to come up with a “True Fan” criterion during the whole Favre fiasco.
But if you cheer for the Vikings you are not a Packer fan by definition. It really is that simple.
1992. Good god. I was still having nightmares of Randy Wright throwing incomplete passes to Aubrey Matthews.
im very confused about this post. maybe the whole “california blonde” thing is true in my case, but i just dont get it!
Just give them your name, e-mail address & postal address …. Obviously there are 400+ people more than willing to receive unsolicited offers for the next 5-10 years……… Idiots.
ANYTHING Randy Wright threw gave me nightmares!
Favre CHOSE to be a Viking and fans feelings, his history with GB, were definitely not his priorities. He was in fact thrilled to beat his old team.
Don’t need a Vikes fan (and Favre Fan 4 Vikings Now – a BF operative likely – is exactly that) to involve himself in Packer business. Things will work out as they will without any input from Vikings fans.
Folks been telling me you shouldn’t mention the ‘you know who’ QB on this blog … but I find that “you know who” still pops up quite a bit… but if his name pops up in a negative way it gets a pass… I guess I can see it while he is a Viking, but in the end, Favre will return to GB to retire his number, be added to the wall of fame, enter the halls of fame (GB and Canton), take Packer money at his steak house, drive down Favre Pass, make millions for football, etc., And we will be reminded forever of all his NFL league records, MVP trophies, division playoffs, Superbowls, personal comeback stories, and “I’m not washed up” victories, etc., So the joke will never be on Favre no matter how you slice it. Let him play and celebrate the past 16 years- he and GB will forever be tied together, no way around it…there’s nothing to gain from bashing him… or booing him – Packer fans have more class than that?!?

@asshalo – AMEN!! Packer fans who still support Favre in a purple & white uni just don’t get it!! It appears that team pride/loyalty has gone to the wayside in this so called post-modern era which has had a profound impact on today’s NFL, i.e., personality trumps team loyalty/history.
Favre is an example of this era: exemplifying the selfish opportunist out to pad his own stats and persona ( ever read any of his books? Its all FAVRE!)
This Packer fan does have more class than Favre. Yes, everybody will tout his personal achievements (emphasis on PERSONAL) and some will say he will retire as a Packer, but if anyone has done their homework of Packer history, especially that of the Lombardi era, one can not help but notice the glaring difference of subordination of self for the sake of team accomplishment vs. the elevation of one’s self aggrandizement as manifested by Brett Favre. Favre is no longer a Packer and may his number in Green Bay never be retired because not about team or loyalty but rather about FAVRE and the promulgation of his name in the annals of the NFL history books. However, when all is said and done, he is the toilet wipe of renown Packer history.
Favre’s personal accomplishments are part of Packer history as much as ‘every’ players personal accomplishments are … good grief. Get over it… everyone else will at the retirement dinner.
And so will his stint with the Vikings, his triumph in GB against his old team, causing his fans some pain.
I’m kind of getting away from the whole idea of retiring numbers anyway. It’s rather special to have a number develope a history of players associated with it down through the ages.
@gbpbob – you’ve proven my point.
