I guess what I’m saying is that I was the first to say he didn’t want to play for the Packers anymore because they make him work too hard. Now everybody’s saying it. Whatever.

Just coming around one more time on a victory lap. McCarthy is ready to let this guy walk back into camp and retake his starting job and all he wants to know if Brett is committed to studying hard and preparing and executing as he had done in 07. Brett’s response? He isn’t sure he can.

He isn’t sure he can. No kidding.

Beautiful job of dismantling this preening fraud, Scott. Why hasnt something like this appeared in a national publication? Not as well expressed but at least the sentiment?

This guys act was old three years ago and the Packers are embaressing themselves in another off-season.

I’ve never been a fan of BF and his act but I can’t argue with what he did in the mid to late 90′s yet I always thought there was a good reason he was a 3rd string ballboy with the Falcons. It’s because he is as dumb as his John Deere and Ron Wolff and Mike Holmgren put him in the right places at the right time. They are the geniuses to his career and now he’s flushing it down the crapper.

I can see that – what is less clear is how Goodell will work in his cocky, stride to the podium, “Awwwwwwllllllllriiiiiiiight Jets fans” routine in all of this. I believe that’s a requirement of any executive action during his administration.

Think about the Favre situation from the viewpoint of how can Goodell cause the most damage and the outcome is clear.

He’ll broker a deal where Brett gets traded to the Vikings, BUT the trade won’t happen until after the Vikings opener at Green Bay.

That way the Packers don’t have to deal with the “embarrassment” of Favre starting for the Vikings in their opener. Goodell gets to look like he did something in his King Solomonesque* way.

That is about as disruptive an outcome I can think of.

* in a lost Biblical book Goodell ordered the 2 mothers cut in half and stitched to each other so they could share the baby

Belichick recently had Piedmont coach Kurt Bryan in for a visit during a closed workout. Bryan did some advising as quarterbacks Tom Brady and Matt Cassell did some work together in a new formation. However, Belichick was said to not be pleased with how Cassell is handling his duties and is looking to bring in a veteran to team with Brady – possibly Brett Favre or Michael Bishop.

This is the best piece, hands down, written on FAVRE this year. It’s too bad nobody will take it seriously since you don’t text OMFG BRETT LOLZ!!! to him like Peter Pancake King does.

I’ll put up a post tomorrow, Florio-style, saying that until the Packers trade him to the Vikings, there remains a possibility that Favre is trying to force a trade to the Patriots. Then we’ll e-mail a link to Gang Green. That ought to do it.
