Ted Thompson is no idiot - no matter how this ends.
I think, before the draft, Thompson would have taken Brett back - gladly. But apparently we've moved on to such a degree that we can't just insert Brett in the lineup without negatively affecting the team.
For the record, I don't see these "big changes", and I'd love to have Brett back for a couple more years. But I've learned to trust in Ted Thompson. Hey, if I can root for John Hadl I can root for any QB. I'll be a Packer fan either way.

Me too. I'm supporting whomever is behind Center this year. I'm just glad it's not Dante Culpepper.
I know, citizen journalism, but I received this today out of nowhere.
My source, that has sources within the Packer organization, says that if Favre comes out of retirement, there is a 95% chance that he will be a Buccaneer this season. The Packers will not release Favre for fear of him joining a team within their division. Supposedly secret talks are already underway discussing details of the trade for Favre to the Bucs.
Favre with Tampa. Well, it would be close to his home.
How do all of you think he will do in a different town?
Me......i think he'll crash and burn. Not because i think he's not good, but because it's a new O, all new players. It takes time to build the timing and cohesiveness with your team. To me, thats at least 2 seasons. By then, he will be physically done. He took alot of hits while he was here, and he's not getting any younger.

This makes sense because of Jon Gruden's love of quarterbacks, but I don't think it will happen. We play the Bucs week 4 and the last thing the Packers want is for Brett and a very talented Bucs team to come and beat the Packers.
Interesting report, I say.
