Clubfoothead Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 ahem 995593[/snapback] Packer fans cannot be considered Texans. I see Swerski has gotten to the bottom line finally. He's a racist republican who will side with whitey in spite of all facts pointing to whitey's being wrong. gotcha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesownninjas Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 (edited) this point has been made over and over here, but i'll make it again since it seems like you don't get it. no one is saying this is favre's fault. they are saying what he did was wrong. do you want your co-workers telling you to get back to your cube and keep working when you are negotiating for a raise? better yet, do you want your co-workers going to the newspapers to have them write that you should get back to work? he was out of line. doesn't matter how much walker is making, favre should have kept his mouth shut, or, if he were truly a leader, he should have been there for his teammate in support of how good he made his QB look last season. those same owners will send favre packing this season if he keeps up this level of play. then we will see how much of a 'company guy' and a 'leader' favre is. tony 995611[/snapback] And the non sense about Favre being there for his teammate, Walker... 52 out weighs 1. When I want a raise, I continue to work at a high level. They'll notice you soon enough. I never threatened to hold out until a raise was given... We're just going to keep going in circles here. Everyone has a point, and to each point, there is a counterpoint. There is no black and white, wrong or right. Its how you perceive it. Oh yeah, i'm also from Texas.

Bill Swerski Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 he should have been there for his teammate in support of how good he made his QB look last season. 995611[/snapback] Favre doesn't need super-talented WRs to make him look good. In fact, the opposite is true. Bill Schroeder and Antonio Freeman are good examples. I can see your point, but saying that Favre "underminded" Walker's ability to secure a new deal isn't really true. Favre's job is to win games. That's not going to happen if his best WR is holding out for a new contract while everyone else's QBs and WRs are practicing together at training camp. He doesn't give a crap about Walker's contract, nor should he be expected to. Manning has called out Edge several times in the press for not working out with the rest of the Colts offense. It's more correct to place to blame on either Rosenhaus for not getting a new deal done or Walker himself for not being able to stay healthy.

Clubfoothead Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I find it laughable that Walker suffers a freak knee injury while being tackled and it's all Favre's fault. Nobody's blaming the guy who tackled Walker. Why not? Was he not rich or white enough? Not that it would be justified anyway, because it was a freak accident. I'm surprised that nobody has blamed Favre for Hurricane Katrina. Oh, my mistake, that was BUSH'S fault! 995503[/snapback] Again nobody's blaim Favre for the injury. It is not Favre's job to get players into camp just like it's not his job to mentor rodgers so that makes option #1 the correct answer, Michael Irvin and the rest of us correct and you and Favre wrong.

piratesownninjas Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Favre was looking out for himself, and the other 51 guys... He didnt need to be by Walkers side. 52 is greater than 1. Im a Texan that voted for Bush and is a life long packer fan. I rule a bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it IS his job to make sure that he and his WRs are in camp and on the same page. Michael Irvin and the rest of us correct and you and Favre wrong. Siding with Michael Irvin makes you almost inherently wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 true, favre and everyone else wants to win games. you have to admit, however, that if favre would have said to the press, "i sure hope that javon and the owners can work this out soon so that we can put the best team out there on the field" instead of saying that he is going about it the "wrong way" and telling reporters what he thinks javon should do, it would have been much classier and more reflective of a true leader. tony 995711[/snapback] Thats called sugar coating... People these days don't speak up for what they think and beleive anymore. You need out spoken people to run anything. I for one found it refreshing that someone came out and said something. You signed your name to the packers contract, you belong to the pack for five years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he was so worried about being co-GM that explains why he sucked so bad last weekend. Now yer wrong again Swerski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants big bucks in his next contract, he needs to show some leadership skills himself. He can't be much of a leader if he holds out.
