Peyton Manning had himself some knee surgery.

Aww I hope Peyton comes back healthy!

The Brett Favre saga continues as now the Packers are accusing their rival Vikings of tampering with their legend.

This is getting wayy out of hand. Stay retired man.

Viking fans already hate him. I can only imagine if they end up losing a pick or face other sanctions over this...

**slowly fading** · 07-17-2008, 12:47 PM

Yea!

They'd be PISSED!

So LT is taking Farve's side in this whole mess.

Well, I'm as tired as everyone else on this subject, but I do agree with what LT says. Brett said he would not play football if he was not 100% with it. He wasn't, so he retired.

And I don't like the fact that he's coming back after that. But who are the Packers to tell him what his future holds? IF he changes his mind and wants to come back, the Packers shouldn't control what he can and can't do. They don't want him as the starter, so just trade him for some picks...

Poor Peyton! Hope he gets better soon.

The contract Brett signed says the Packers have the control.

Brett is only hurting himself by speaking out to the media. He's lessened his value with these games & making it harder for the Packers to be able to trade him.

Jason Taylor was traded to the Skins for a 2nd & 6th round pick. Once again Dan Snyder shows how little he values draft picks by overpaying for a vet who's nearing the end of his career.

Brett is seriously tarnishing his legacy by all this unnecessary drama.

Jeremy Shockey has been traded to the Saints for a 2nd and 5th round pick.
