Comments on: Alex Marvez with more on Favre http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/2009/05/04/alex-marvez-with-more-on-favre/ All Things Green Bay Packers Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:57:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Frank G http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/2009/05/04/alex-marvez-with-more-on-favre/#comment-6257 Wed, 06 May 2009 04:55:26 +0000 http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/?p=3106#comment-6257 Great point Kozak…If Favre comes back with the Vikes it will be for the sole purpose of sticking it in the eye of Packers management and, indirectly, the fans. It’s not like he grew up in Minnesota and always dreamed of playing for the Vikes. He’s just an immature, spiteful jackass. I hope the Packers give his jersey number to a punter!!!

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Favre in purple soon.

It’s there. … But soon to be 40? I just don’t know if it’s worth a try. But there will be a day, I’m sure, when I feel like I could play 291 more.”

That was in February. The “I just don’t know if it’s worth a try” is what he is trying to figure out. Does he think he can play an entire season at a high level? How likely is it that he can make a serious run at a championship with the Vikings…with Brad Childress as head coach? Is that chance worth what he gives up to try?

Concentrate on the 2009 TEAM and the obvious upgrades on defense instead of him.

NO wall of fame, no Packer Hall of fame. Let the Jets or the Vikes “honor” him.

I really think Irv was like an anchor in Favre’s life. They were very close. When he passed away, Favre’s mental/emotional strength may have taken a much larger hit than we all realized. So it is interesting to think about how things might have been different if he hadn’t passed.

He was denying interest in coming back last year too. There have just been too many instances where he’s clearly been lying for me to trust anything he says.
