[QUOTE="nelanator, post: 230867, member: 889"] I'm not mean, either. I am just looking at this at face value - which I realize is difficult for fans who have deified Favre. But the reality is that Favre has notoriously held the team and fans in limbo for several consecutive offseasons and TT and the rest of the Packers management have been wondering when they would finally have to move on. Favre announced his "official" retirement so the Pack had no choice but to move on and get comfortable with life without him. After this transition and all the dramatics of the teary-eyed retirement nobody can expect them to welcome #4 back with open arms. It is time for everyone to move on and TT and McCarthy are not the bad guy in this situation - if there is a bad guy. But now this idiot reporter says things like "the man [Thompson] has shown no respect to perhaps the greatest quarterback in their franchise history" and "When it's all said and done, Ted Thompson is the man to blame on all this." But on what basis does he have to make these claims? IMO, the Packers management has been extremely patient and respectful with this situation - as have the fans. If anything, despite all that he has done for the team on the field, Favre has not respected the Packers' situation in the matter. [/QUOTE]
