Favre Officially Reinstated
He'll report to camp tomorrow. The current rumor is the Packers will bury him on the depth chart, restrict him to individual drills only and then cut him right before the start of the season.
If true, this makes the team's already embarrassing behavior even more embarrassing. It's truly pathetic that Ted Thompson appears to think competition for the starting QB job is a bad thing for his team.

I HOPE the Packers do this. I also HOPE that Favre is picked up by the Vikings, and they give Favre some time to learn the system. Favre takes over by around week 3-4 and leads the Vikings to a championship. It creates the perfect "good-guy, bad-guy" scenario that we all love to see unfold in the NFL.
The most important question here is would Greg and/or Tom buy the #4 Vikings jersey?

I remember when Favre announced he wanted to come back and many were on him for being the bad guy and putting the Pack in a "bad situation". If this plays out the way Tom described above, I can't help but think there will be a lynch mob if/when the Pack begin to falter.
Screw the coach and GM here. Favre wants to play, let him compete. They risk losing their entire team in less than 2 months!

Latest report indicates Favre and Rodgers will compete for the starting job.
It speaks volumes about the Packers' recent ineptitude with this matter that I'm shocked they might be doing the intelligent thing here. This has always been the best and most intelligent option for the team to make. There's no reason for any other option to even be considered in my opinion.

Compete. If Favre can't beat out Rodgers, Favre should retire. This is already becoming a very interesting season. Were does Favre rank at QB? Top 10? Grant, Jennings and Lee get bump.

If these reports are true that Favre will really be given the opportunity to become the starter again, then I must admit that I was wrong on this one.
I didn't think there was any chance of this happening (As Liquid Hippo correctly pointed out, I used the term "zero chance" ). oops.
Well, hopefully I've gotten out of the way the one thing I'll be wrong about this entire NFL season.
