Circus comes to Green Bay
What in the world is going on with Green Bay Packer quarterbacks? Rodgers tells Packer fans to shut up. What? Are you kidding me Aaron! You've done nothing since you came to Green Bay but hold a clipboard and wipe Favre's nose when it runs, and yet you want die-hard Packer fans to get on board or shut up. Why don't you shut up and just go out and prove yourself. Aaron, you should've learned long ago never to bite the hand that feeds you. And what do you know, another story about No. 4 wanting to come back and play. Brett, here is some advice. Poop or get off the pot. This song-and-dance routine is getting old. If you want to play the final two years of your contract, so be it. But then don't hold a press conference, cry your eyes out and say you're retiring. Don't be the little boy who cried wolf too many times.

Well, this is how I see it:
Brett retired; The Packers had to move on, and they did.
Now Brett wants to come back, that's fine, but he should have to fight for his job.
In business, you lose an employee to retirement, you find another to take his place. the Packers did that.
If Brett doesn't feel he should have to fight for his job, then stay retired, if he really wants to play then come in to training camp and fight for the job.
If not: then take your aligator tears and take them back to Mississippi, we are done with you.

So far all comments have not come from Farve but from hanger's on around him. All he said is he has the "itch" to play. Who wouldn't after 15 years. I did hear a rumor he was miffed that Ted T didn't ask him to come out of retirement when they visited recently. I say stay retired give Rodgers a chance. Also screws up our whole draft with alll those QB's we drafted on premise Farve is gone. Now if Bare hears Frave is going to Miami, I bet Bare jumps on board! ( Or ick,,, the Vi-Queen's.)

well said, John! Especially about Aaron Rodgers. Ted "Egomaniac Extraordinairre" Thompson and Aaron Rodgers need to get out of Dodge, and preferably together!
.
I have "sources" who are close to Brett. I would say chances are higher that #4 will be suited up in green and gold come September 8th vs suited up in jeans and a button down!
.
Brett is slated to be Frankie Winters', his good buddy, presenter on July 19 at the Packer Hall of Fame induction banquet. If he does infact show up to be Frankie's presenter, one could make the strong assumption he will not be back to Green Bay prior to September 8th.

However, the Favre's have not cleaned out their home in Green Bay as of yet. Hmmmm.....
