ImWithStupid Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I think it was mostly the direction the team was going.. That quick passing, west coast offense. Bettis didn't fit that mold. It worked out well for both teams over the years when all the smoke cleared. I guess we'll call 1996 to 1999 the rebuilding years for the Rams. More like 1989 to 1999 and now they're doing it all over again. Quote
ImWithStupid Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Sorry wez, not only won't Favre go to a division rival, but he goes outside the league, to the AFL... Packers, Jets confirm deal to trade Favre By CHRIS JENKINS, AP Sports Writer 1 hour, 54 minutes ago In this Jan. 12, 2008 file pho… AP - Aug 7, 1:34 am EDT GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP)—The monthlong saga of Brett Favre’s unretirement ended Wednesday night when he was traded by the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets. The Packers had been talking with the Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers since deciding earlier this week that they could no longer co-exist with the player who won a Super Bowl and three MVP awards in 16 years with the team. Terms of the trade weren’t immediately available. Quote

wez Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 That sucks.. Favre belongs in the NFC north.. I hope the Vikes kick the living crap out of the Pack this year for dissing one of the greatest QB's of all time.. Quote

wez Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 Better hope Adrian Peterson stays healthy. Least he's in camp.. Hard for a guy like that to stay healthy.. Plays like a stick of dynamite. Fun to watch.. Let's hope. We still got Chester Taylor too, a damn fine RB.. Quote

I hope the Vikes kick the living crap out of the Pack this year for dissing one of the greatest QB's of all time.. Now we can hope that Brett and the Jets (Sounds like a fukken doo-wop group from the '50s) lays down some vengeance on the Packers! Oh... And no matter how much I root for Atlanta, anytime Brett plays against us, I cheer for him. Atlanta was dumb enough to cut and trade him, so I say we are not good enough to win against a team his QB'ing!

Pisses me off...they didn't want him going to a rival in the division yet they obviously think they're better off with Rogers. Why wouldn't they wanna face him? Morons... Tried to pay him 25 mil. to stay retired.. what a slap in the face. However, for a Joe Blow such as myself, a 25 mil. slap in the face sounds pretty good about now... Hell, prolly bend over and let eddo and Tom Cruise ass rape me for that amount.. Quote

They will have to meet in the Superbowl and the likelyhood of that is almost slim to none.

Hell, prolly bend over and let eddo and Tom Cruise ass rape me for that amount.. For a cool twenty-five million? I'd slap eddo's mom in the jaw with my pecker.
