My fellow Wisconsinites;

'Tis truly a sad day for Packer fans everywhere, with the retirement of Brett Favre. Let us all bow our heads in a moment of silence to acknowledge the passing of a great era...

I totally agree, as I am sitting here watching 'Farewell to a Legend" on tv. Packer games won't be the same, but I will still cheer them on!!

Just curious...how are you all feeling about Brett now? Will he...won't he...where will he play? :-) Here we thought we had the answer a few months ago...and now this soap opera continues!

Well, Lizalee, I gotta' tell you that my opinion of Brett Favre has changed A LOT. I'm now glad he's gone and hopefully the media circus will end. Don't get me wrong - I was a big Favre fan, but I really think he acted like a princess through this whole thing. Most of you probably know that after his tearful retirement speech, a few weeks later he told the Packers he changed his mind and wanted to play. Awesome news. Right before the Packers were going to announce his return, he changed his mind AGAIN and "retired" AGAIN. After all that he seemed surprised and even angry that the Packers organization was not begging him on bended knee to come back! They had moved on, rightfully so, with Aaron Rodgers. And who could blame them? Brett Favre does not make the team's executive decisions. They have people to do that!!

Anyway, I think the Packers are going to be just fine without him. Rodgers looked pretty good in the pre-season game last night. I wish Brett success as a Jet, but I have a funny feeling about how well he will do there...
