Re: Favre seeks release from Packers (updated)
I think the only place where Thompson is wrong is that he isn't working harder to convince Favre to return to the Packers as Aaron Rodgers backup.
As the no. 2 guy behind Rodgers, Favre could be an asset to the Packers, as opposed to a hinderence. If Favre isn't willing to take a backseat to the team's future (and he almost certainly isn't), then he's only hurting his own image.
But Thompson isn't cornering Brett in the same way Brett is trying to corner Ted Thompson, so these two sides will continue to get nowhere.
