I live in Green Bay, and from what I've heard from friends and local talk, is everyone is excited for the season. For one, what the hell else is there to care about in Green Bay. Rodgers is doing alot to gain the trust of the team. The media is reporting it locally and I think most fans are excited/curious about what's about to happen. Maddenchamp…

I live in Allentown, about 40mile from Philly, so there's a pretty strong idea of how things will go with Donovan (who, last night did an interview on Daily News Live that didnt make him seen so cynical). From what i take out of it all it seems pretty cut and dry that Aaron Rogers is the guy now. They say all the right things(obviously), but my question is this, is that the feeling in the home town, or what? Im sure everyone thats not from there doenst have the insight many of you town folk might have, so if any readers are from the bay or surrounding areas sould you sound off on this. I for one, who respect Brett, am kinda tired of this story. I just wondered what the thoughts were from the homers. I wanted to know hat the general opinion was up in Green Bay about all of this.

The cheesehead hats that are worn in Lambeau Field are a communication device that calls the UFO... Chad Johnson was also abducted, but the aliens let him out because he was even stranger than them. Coach Kevlar was also taken for a refresh surgery on the new skin he got last year by the aliens. Give it a break already. Favre's retired.

What was news was when Favre said he was shutting outside activities down for a year and *then* showed up on Letterman. If Favre is skipping out, it's because he talked about laying low for 12 months after the retirement. If he's planning a return, the only reason not to go golfing would be to avoid further scrutiny from friends and the press or to hide the possibility he is still in game-playing shape. On the other hand, maybe that would be a great way to let clubs know you're still in shape...I give up. This isn’t news, at least not yet.
