[QUOTE="evad04, post: 232537, member: 813"] I have to admit that it seems difficult to engage in debate or discussion, but particularly because of the emotional baggage that's commonly attached to the Favre/TT debacle. I don't mean to group everyone together, but in general I have observed the following: Those who side with Favre (and thus despise our G.M. TT) generally lack the cohesive argumentative focus that the other side -- the pro-Packer side seems to place a premium. Example (any similarities to arguments made by actual posters is strictly coincidental): [I]Poster #1:[/I] Yes, but Favre had a chance to come back in late March. Both sides were on board, but at the 11th hour Favre contacted the team and said they were going to move on. [I][B]Poster #2:[/B][/I][B][/B] Right so you go with an unproven injury prone qb over a legend! Yeah right. TT is making the biggest mistake ever. I mean he hates Favre. Look at their relationship... he clearly hates Favre. Favre gives us the best chance to win. I've been watchingt the Packers for years and Favre has done so much for them we at least owe it to him to let him have gthe time to make the decision. Yeah, he retired, but he wasn't even wanted back. [I]Poster #1:[/i] Wow... we really aren't on the same planet. ^^^THE END^^^ So, yeah, I'll chill out. But reading another one of ^^^ really makes me lose a bit of faith in our fan-base (or just humanity in general -- I mean, getting emotional and jumping to conclusions is almost never the best course of action, unless you're drunk and there are more girls than guys in the room). Bozz said it best in another thread: this is just sad. It's simply unfortunate. There's a divide in Packerland -- and methinks it's coming from the most unlikely of hosts, Favre himself. Did I mention I have a Favre Fathead in my living room? That guy is staring at me as I type. Whew...it's gonna be a weird few weeks. [/QUOTE]
