[QUOTE="Ace, post: 548938, member: 9774"] I'm not going to hate because I'm learning to respect peoples opinions but I disagree with #1 & #2 completely. #1- I'm not sure who the franchise lost alot of luster with. Fans? The NFL? You personally? The situation was mishandled on both sides I don't see how anyone can disagree with that. Favre had an agenda to become a Viking, which was made very evident by the 6 hour yelling session he had with MM and the rest of management when all they wanted was an answer about playing for the Packers. I dont think MM was wrong wanting Brett to commit to playing for the Packers after this all started going down which he never did, and had he he would have been a Packer. TT is painted as the bad guy here which is completely false IMO. Do Brett and TT like each other? Probably not, but I think Brett has a genuine hatred for MM. I don't hate Brett, in fact I'm a fan who has been able to look past everything that happened and am ready to let him back in. What this has taught me is to never latch on to one particular player like I did with Brett. #2- I have a problem with the way he held this franchise hostage that entire summer. He is allowed to change his mind I won't argue that, he had earned that right, but what ended up transpiring was completely and totally unfair to Aaron Rodgers. Regardless of how it was handled by management, Favre thought he was above the team and that when he said jump they'd say how high. I believe MM was ready to move on from Favre from the day he got here. He knew what he had in Rodgers but at the same time MM gave him a chance to commit to being a Packer and he never did. TT has taken the brunt of all of this when MM is the one who should have been taking the bullets. Management is not completely innocent nor are they completely at fault. This whole situation is bittersweet. Favre, one of the greatest Packers of all time, didn't finish his career as a Packer which is a shame no matter who is at fault. But his ultimate goal was to get to Minnesota and win a SB with the Vikings which he did not do. In turn, the Packers ended up with Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews because of this and ultimately won a SB. Would we have won another with Favre? We'll never know.
