Packers Vs. Vikings

Today was the day that Brett Favre and Packers fans have been talking about for weeks.  The first matchup between The Packers and Brett Favre in Green Bay since Favre signed a contract with Minnesota, and became their starting quarterback.

If you know me at all, you know that I'm a die hard Cowboys fan, so there's no love in my house for the Packers anyway, but what I saw from a huge majority of their fans today really turned me off of Packer football, and would have probably caused me to change allegiance, had I been a Green Bay follower.

When Brett Favre ran onto the Lambaugh field for the first time today, he was booed by fans who two short years ago thought he was God's gift to football.  I have to say, I thought it was horrible sportsmanship, and just bad manners!

If Green Bay had simply released Favre to play for the Vikings last year, there would never have been the farce of him playing for New York and then having to announce his retirement, and then coming out of retirement. 

Personally, I'm glad to see the old man still playing.  It gives me hope that I can continue to do things that the world thinks I'm too old to do!

So what are your thoughts?  Not on the retirement issue.  This isn't a Favre bashing article.  I want to know what you think about the Green Bay fans booing as he came out onto the field.
