After watching the fiasco that took place between the Farveless Pack and the 49er’s,and seeing Brett firing bullets for a touchdown w/ the Jets Sat. night,(were you watching Ted?) It has really cemented in my mind and many others ,what the hell were you thinking Green Bay Management? If this is a preview of games to come,I’ll be watching Favre and the Jets play their way to the play-offs and the green and gold struggle to 3-13 as Aaron struggles to find an open receiver while being sacked on his keister.Well TT,MM,MM your New Direction could be your walking papers out of the gate at Lambeau.

FYI Packers anounce today that the promotion package is going to be offered to Favre when he is officially retired. Hmmmmm! Ari?

Also, Bengal DB fines $7,500 for Ruvell martin hit with his helmet.

I think that TT/MM/MM take the brunt of this only if the Packers fall on their face this year.

If Rodgers stays heathy this year, and continues to play at the leve we’ve seen so far, I think the Packers should get to at least 8 or 9 wins, and that will go a long way toward answering “How could they let this happen?”

It should also be remembered that (given the state of the Bears, Lions, and Vikings), 9 or 10 wins could be enough to win the division this year.

Overall, he doesn’t paint a very good picture of Favre. The two remaining options are interesting.

!. “Favre traded to another team and plays well. -Idiots, Idiots.”

Straight forward and undoubtedly true. T.T. and M.M. squared will be verbally and quite possibily physically abused for their outright stupidity.

2. “Favre traded to another team and plays poorly — T.T. and M.M. squared are blamed: Their disrespect to Favre is said to have caused him to end his storied career on a sour note. Surely Favre himself will be saying this.”

Obviously, this is the point that accounts for the Packers hiring Ari. If all works out for the Packers the best result they can hope for is Favre plays the whole season. If Mangini benches him for any reason he will probably retire again. And then the real issues between Favre and GB Mgt. will come to the surface. I hope a variety of responses are in the can and ready. Reading the teleprompter training should already have begun. In short, be prepared.
