Favre has Green Bay fuming

I just read an article by Yahoo! Sports' Charles Robinson Wednesday, and he hit the nail on the head. Brett Favre, who signed a 2-year contract Tuesday to be the quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings said, “If you’re a true Packer fan, you understand.”

I AM a true PACKER fan, not a FAVRE fan. Although I loved having Favre play for the Packers, he no longer plays for the Packers. That is pretty much how most TRUE PACKER fans will see him now --- as the enemy. I've been a Packer fan since the early '80s, about 10 years before Favre was traded to the Packers from the Falcons. I thank Favre for his 16 years of playing for the Packers, but now he is enemy since he crossed that bitter rivalry line. He will have his #4 retired someday, but it will most likely be posthumously now. If you think true Packer fans will support you now that you pretty much thumbed your nose at the Packers tradition and signed with the hated Vikings, you are sadly mistaken.
