[QUOTE="Jess, post: 287111, member: 1495"] Provided he's retired by then. [ATTACH=full]8660[/ATTACH] I know we've been through some crap. I know he's betrayed us. But at the end of the day, this outweighs that. I was sitting there watching America's Game on NFL Net, and it was the story of the 1996 Packers. And watching it, I realized, I just can't hate him forever. Maybe now, sure, but that man was reason 1 that we had the most magical season I as a fan have ever experienced. And words cannot express the gratitude I have towards him, and all the other players on that team, for that season. And that picture, of Favre in a Packers jersey. Of Favre celebrating like a kid. Of vintage Favre. The Favre we all loved, is how I'm choosing to remember him in the future. Sure, I'll remember the Viking stuff. I'll remember the stalling of his decision. I'll remember all the annoying things he did. But it won't matter to me. He'll always be a Packer. He'll always be a Packer legend. I think it's very, very easy with all the junk that's gone on the last 2, 3 years to forget everything he did for this team. Think of how far down the Packers were in the '80s. And yes, Reggie helped a lot. We had a great defense, sure. But we don't win that Super Bowl, we don't return to the top without that man. And for that I will be forever grateful. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go find some kleenex. Damn show made me a little misty eyed. Don't confuse this with me rooting for Minnesota now or something. I hope they go 0-16. I hope it's as ugly as possible. Just think of this as me being nostalgic for the Favre I admired so much as a kid. [/QUOTE]
