[QUOTE="bhuggins, post: 412415, member: 5545"] Ron wolf was smart enough to realize the talent Favre possessed but it was still Favre who played at an extremely high level throughout his 16 years with the Packers. The only reason Brett moved onto play for another organization was because the Packers didn't want him any longer. How is his situation any different than any other business decision made by you or I? If your employer decided to terminate your employment wouldn't you pursue another opportunity with a different company even if that company was a competitor of your former employer? Would that tarnish your reputation? The NFL is a business and sometimes business decisions are not always popular but we as individuals have every right to seek employment whereever the oppurtunity takes us. Yes, Favre did not win all those games by himself, but I challenge you to name one potential Hall of Famer besides Reggie White that played with him during his 16 years. As for Favre not being a Top 10 QB that is your opinion, but I would venture to guess that he is most certainly on most every football scholar's list as an all-time top 10 quarterback. Packers fans should show the same respect for Favre as the Eagles fans have shown toward Reggie even after he left them on his own terms via free agency to join the Packers. Favre never even considered free agency during his time with Green Bay and I'm sure there would have been about 31 other teams lined up for the chance to sign him. The man deserves our respect and admiration for the attention he brought to the smallest city in the NFL. He put the Packers on the national stage. Do you really think the rest of the country tuned into watch Packers games because of all the other players? He was fun to watch. He won many more games than he lost not to mention all the good things he and his wife did within the community. [/QUOTE]
