Moss?! No way!

I can see why Brett would want him -- Moss always seems to have his best games against the Packers.

I'm against it though, for a couple of reasons. The main thing is Moss' work ethic, or lack thereof. I just don't think Brett will be able to influence that, and I think that will lead to frustration all around. (Brett trying to knock some sense into Moss, Moss not appreciating the knocking and getting all sullen, etc., etc.)

I think Moss' moment has passed. He's a guy who had great athletic potential but his (horrible) personality just got in the way. I think the time for that potential to go somewhere serious is already gone, and it'd be a waste of time, energy, and money for the Packers to take him on.

So he have conflicting reactions. Sozobe, once again is the voice of reason, analyzing every possible angle and making an intelligent decision based on what she believes is best for the team, while Bill simply says, "Hell, yeah, toss that bad boy out there. Hey! Somebody grab me a beer!"

Thanks for the responses and would someone be kind enough to explain to me how wandel jumped into the mix.

Wandel conveiniently forgot the Pack was kicking the snot out of the Bears long before they rested anyone. Oh, and Soz is uncharacteristically wrong. Moss shined under Chris Carter's tutelage... and no one could resist the omni-powerful Lambeau Love after their first Lambeau Leap. Moss would probably spend most of his time doing charity drives when he wasn't catching touchdowns, studying for his Doctorate or working to end terrorism and world hunger as we know it.

I've always said that a Favre-Moss combination would have been one of the most deadly long ball tandems in the history of the league, but that was when they were in their prime. Favre is now a shell and Moss has lost a step. They might hook up on a few passes, but, for now, it is simply a dream of days gone by, wishful thinking if you may, and I could really care less if Moss ended up in Green Bay.

Let's call it his retirement home.

Sorry, everyone! I wandered here by mistake.

Bill, I'd love it if that happened but I just don't see it. Moss isn't motivated by positivity, that's boring to him. He gets motivated in Lambeau field as an outsider, shutting up all those damn Cheeseheads. (Gus can maybe relate.) He's opposititional, hate-fuelled. Lambeau love might last a quarter or two but then he's going to make some stupid mistake and they'll hold him accountable and that'll be it. He'll convince himself that he doesn't care what they think, anyway.

Even with Cris Carter Moss never really got that far -- he had his flashes of brilliance but he never was able to put together any sustained, consistent performance. And just occasional flashes of brilliance -- without reliability -- will piss off Brett to no end.

That's assuming Moss still has it and I agree with Gus that he's just too old for this. Brett plus a fresh new breakout talent = fabulous. Brett plus an old cranky couldabeen-a-superstar-if-he'd-ever-gotten-his-****-together with a horrible work ethic and a high price tag = disaster.

IMO.

moss will be catching footballs in Foxborough MAthis year.

he will have to change his ways if he wants to play for Belichick...

Randy Moss for a 4th round pick. Who'd've thunk that five years ago?

i guess the raiders were desperate.

he's only 30, so he should have 4 or 5 more good seasons in him...

Didn't have any in Oakland.

Thanks Region, I meant to note that.

I'm ecstatic.

I don't know if the Packers have any particular chance without him, either, but really glad they didn't take him.

You can't blame him. Ever since Wolf departed they've been building so called run to set up the pass teams; and that's opposite of what the team needs, the fans want, and the single greatest quarterback in history deserves.

Brett Favre Demands Trade To 1996 Packers
The Onion...they're funny

Is it just me or is Brett Favre starting to resemble fecal matter?

Good to see ya, Panz.

OK Gus, not his best shot.

Back at ya Bill...I really think the Cheesehead Nation needs to let Brett go.

It's not about him anymore...the front office is trying to build a team for the future

If by fecal matter you mean a quarterback who routinely shreds Minnesota's defense then yes, he looks like a huge pile of ****.

I'm changing my answer to Gargamel's...

No way Panz; he's still the man and decisions that don't reflect that are poor decisions.

Gargamel gets pretty defensive when someone attacks Favre.
