IN Announcing the Packers had officially traded Brett Favre to the New York Jets, Mark Murphy, CEO and President of the Green Bay Packers, made the following statement:
..."Moving forward, we are dedicated to delivering a successful 2008 season for all Packers fans."
I have a simple suggestion for Mr. Murphy, if you truly want to have a successful 2008 season, your first order of business upon completion of this trade would be to terminate the employment of Mr. Ted Thompson. Were it not for his inept handling of this entire saga, you would not have had to deal with any of this.
To place this decision solely in the lap of Favre is a bit of a reach. Not that he does not share part of the blame, Ted Thompson made it clear from the start that he did not want Favre on the team and he would stop at nothing to ensure Favre did not return.
Mr. Murphy, you do seem like an honorable gentleman, and I trust that you have the Packers best interest at heart, however if you fail to take action on Thompsons' share in this mess, I will lose faith in your ability to maintain the high standards the Packers require.
