[QUOTE="packedhouse01, post: 234781, member: 204"] I just get the distinct impression that Favre is a guy that needs to feel the love all the time. I also get the feeling that Ted Thompson and even McCarthy just got tired of the retirement games and decided to call his bluff. I think they watned him back in worst way, but for whatever reason Brett felt the need to want more love and continued to play the game. I find it terribly interesting that a guy who has flirted with retirement for years now has this huge passion to continue playing. Someone else mentioned that he is hearing all these things in his favor from his player friends and that just fuels the problem. Ted Thompson was probably wrong in not nurturing 'Favre more, but I can also see why he would tire of the retirement baloney. That whole thing has just gotten old and I believe it was only a ploy to gain more love. You know, "Brett we need you to win, we love you," kind of thing. The problem, as I see it, is that there is this huge riff and no one talks directly to each other. If I were Brett I'd have gotten on the phone and asked Ted and Mike exactly what they think of me. If I were Ted I would have called Brett and said, "what are you needs buddy? what do we have to do to get you and keep you in a Packer uniform, because we can't let this happen to you or the franchise." So now it's out there and it is probably no longer repairable. I just think this is all such a senseless shame. [/QUOTE]
