Trade Him

You have to feel really bad for what has happened in Green Bay. The Packers should just go ahead and trade Aaron Rodgers now, the fans are never going to accept him and his life here is going to be miserable. The only one to blame for this is not TT, but Brett Favre. If he would have been a man instead of a wishy-washy boy this whole affair could have been avoided.

I feel horrible for the treatment of Rodgers by the supposed fans of Green Bay.

So lets bring Farve back let him have his year and he better hope he wins the Super Bowl because that is the only thing that will justify what he has done to this city, this team and a young mans career.

Then next year when Farve again goes wishy-washy Green Bay can just sit back until he decides what he wants to do again.

But do the right thing TT, trade Aaron, give the kid a chance to play the game he loves and play for fans who cheer for teams not for aging QB because they once won a Super Bowl 12 years ago.

Brett Favre

While the majority of the post here are political, being a Green Bay Packer fan I just cannt ignore the current drama between the team and Brett.

WOW! What a firestorm we have here in the Frozen Tundra! The message boards are burning, sports call in shows are jammed. We have people ready to run GM Thompson out of town on a very short rail.

If you are a sports fan, even if you are not you must know that Brett Favre has said he wants to come back to the NFL. The problem is the team has already planned the season with the players they have and really are not interested. This is what is upsetting so many fans, how could they not want him back?

The answer is simple, he has jerked the team around this off season so much they are tired of the games. In March they were ready to take him back, had a private jet all set to go get hi, have a big announcement of his return and go for one more run at the Super Bowl. Problem is, just days before it was to happen Brett called again and said he once again did not have the desire to play this year.

He has asked to be released from his contract so he can negotiate his own deal with any team! Why would Green Bay risk him making a deal with a division team, or a team in the NFC that they may meet in a playoff game?

The facts are that the Packers really hold all of the cards. I expect them to eventually say ok Brett come on in to camp and compete for the starters job, he will hen have to decide if he wants to play in Green Bay or stay retired. I really don’t think he is worth a lot on the trade market. He has a huge salary that a team would have to absorb, then not knowing how long he is actually going to play, one year two years three years, they are not going to give up high draft picks for a one or two year QB. I believe that is why Brett wants to be released because he knows under contract with the Packers he has a very small chance of playing anywhere this year except GB.

This is a sad ending to a wonderful career in the NFL and in Green Bay. It has caused division among fans, will only cause problems within the team if he returns and is a no win situation for everyone.

Not the way I am sure he wanted it to end.

No Shame

“The first news most Americans heard this morning was the announcement that Sen. Ted Kennedy had passed away after his 15-month battle with brain cancer,” conservative Gary Bauer wrote this week. “The second thing most Americans heard was a shameless attempt by Big Media 'talking heads' and liberal politicians to exploit his death by suggesting that America should honor the senator by stopping the debate and passing ‘health care reform

Destruction

If Al Qaeda wants to demolish the America we know and love, they'd better hurry because Obama's beating them to it.

You Better Listen Democrats

"One day, God's gonna stand before you, and he's gonna judge you and the rest of your damn cronies up on the Hill -- and then you will get your just desserts." - From Sen. Arlen Specter town hall meeting

Stimulus

"Not only has the stimulus not worked and the economy not been rescued, the President continues to promote policies that will create more unemployment in America. The national energy tax that went through this House last month will cause millions of Americans to lose their jobs over the next 10 years, at 2.5 million per year. And we're debating the health care plan, the government takeover of health care, which according to the Presidents council of economic advisors model will cost five million more Americans their jobs."
John Boehner

Idiot

I just don’t understand how anyone would want to be a Republican. I just can’t figure it. I don’t understand. If you’re poor, if you’re any kind of minority - gay, black, Latino, anything. If you’re not a rich - I don’t know. If you’re not a rich born-again-Christian, I don’t get it.

DekeRivers Derangement Count

The MSM media and liberals in general all suffer Sarah Palin Derangement Syndrome. They fear this little woman like never before seen. There is a blogger from Madison WI, who has a bad case of it and it's absolutely hysterical to read his post.

In Oct he had 7 post about Sarah which was about average for each month since the end of the election. But now that Obama has become an utter failure he has started to get worked up again and working very hard to discredit one of his major competitors for 2012, currently for November has 19 20 post.

I was worried he would not hit 20, new monthly record! Nice Job Deke!

Be Proud

“I wish that some in the media would keep things like that in perspective, what is really important in our country. And what is important is our freedoms, America’s security, our liberty. Let us continue to love our country, be proud of our country, never apologize for our country.”
- Sarah Palin

Common Sense

Of course, Obama attended a black supremacist church for twenty years, and referred to his grandmother as “a typical white woman,” and wrote a book with the word “race” in the title – which no politically ambitious white writer could ever get away with. But that’s not “racist” or anything. -Kathy Shaidle
