[QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 320158, member: 145"] Prob around the time (or maybe earlier) when ilovethepackers talks about AP knowing Brett was coming to the Vikings, a post was made on OBF from the BIGDOG I think everyone knows who he is by now.. Someone asked him the question would Brett come out of the tunnel on that Monday night game in 08 in GB (GB vs Minny) His answer was yes he will, but will be wearing purple. Now, how did he make such a bold statement, knowing Brett was STILL a Packer and no real trade talks were happening? Up until that point I was in Bretts corner, I was even faxing letters to the Packers showing my displeasure of what they were doing to Brett... Only way I can think of is that Brett assumed the team would release him and then he would be allowed to sign with the Vikings..But he didnt count on Ted and co. playing hardball But that statement by the BIGDOG made me think for myself..I went and started to look at interviews and started to get a whole different picture than what his web site was painting.. When they wouldnt just release him, he asked to be traded... [ame="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3514071"]Favre: Packers' $20M offer to stay retired may be best - NFL - ESPN@@AMEPARAM@@http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=3514085@@AMEPARAM@@3514085[/ame] I find it very very hard to believe his situation NEVER arose when talking to Bevell and Chilly..As much as Brett talks and as long as he talks, you think they only talked about his tractor, clearing trees and hunting? Please..... [B]My theory and its just a theory, no real proof[/B], but I think Bevell/Chilly told Brett we want to trade for you if Packers wont let you play...We all know how much Brett was talking to Campen on the situation, Brett may have hinted to Campen that Vikings want to trade for him... And that is where the tampering charges come into play, Campen told that to the Pack I dont think Brett had a Packer cell phone, cuz he was retired..No need to have one..Plus Ted said in a press conference (in fact was last question he answered) was that Brett DID NOT have a Packer cell phone. Brett/Bus are lot smarter than people think..Brett would have made sure that there was no real proof of him talking to Chilly/Bevell about being traded..Maybe didnt even use his own phones? ;) At the time it was said that the NFL needed a lot of strong evidence to even investigate..I know in an article it was said they get a lot of tampering charges each year but only look into a handful of them..And one was Brett and the Viks..But not enough to do anything about Brett. We will never know the whole truth, and I bet lot of people CLOSE to Brett/Ted/Mike may not even know ALL the truth.... Sometimes you need to look at every quote, every interview and analyze them yourselves to get a clearer picture instead of just listening to a pied piper [/QUOTE]
