Only other Packer QB to do that was Bart Starr, and he did it twice.

in fact , with a minimum 150 postseson attempts, Aaron just passed a former QB from Green Bay's long-standing postseason record for all-time post season QB rating. AR has a 112 rating breaking the former record of 105, you may have heard of the QB whose record Rodgers just broke: his name is Bart Starr.
Dont forget that Favre had taken you to 2 superbowls, and he had to face Elway and Terrel Davis in Superbowl 32 or he would probably also have 2.

No offense but this poll is one of the worst I have seen in while. I am boycotting your pole. When are people going to stop this nonsense?

What? I can't even come up with good arguement for this comment. He would probably have 2 superbowls if he didn't play the people he played?

The Packers should have included Favre in their team photo last week, vote him a significant share of their post season money and have him the grand marshall of the parade.

LOL!! Maybe made him honorary MVP of the superbowl. I guess some people will continue to have a love affair with him and his open fly jean commercials.

Most of the blame goes to the ESPN circle jerk that creates these Favre stories. Their formula is pretty simple:
  1. Insert Brett Farvre's name into a current story, any story. If it doesn't involve him directly, mention how it could hypothetically involve him. A working understanding of the Butterfly Effect is essential.
  2. Have ESPN employees interview other ESPN employees about their opinions on the new Favre "story". Refer to one of them as an analyst, that way it doesn't seem so ridiculous. Repeat ad nauseam.
  3. After the story spreads to other networks, have at least half of the ESPN personalities declare that they're sick of Favre and his attention seeking ways. Discuss disapproval of Favre with other ESPN employees. Repeat ad nauseam.
  4. Repeat every three weeks.

I'm tired of it and ESPN does a great deal to perpetuate it, I agree. You have Bart Starr, Brett Favre, and now Aaron Rodgers, each with their own path and destiny. Favre had his great career, did put up great numbers, he is retired (hopefully)! Bart Starr and Aaron talk and he looks up to him, has said so and I think he is a good role model. He also talks to Steve Young, who had a tense situation with Joe Montana.

Aaron is now able to go forward on his own and each man should be separate. Aaron should not have to deal with 18 questions about Brett during his 1 hr. media time.

He shouldnt do anything if he doesnt want to. If he wants to then he will, if he doesnt then he doesnt. Who cares.
