#1 Based on record, Ratgini did not deserve this; however Tannenbaum was not about to take the fall for hiring Brett Fartve.

#2 Mangini is responsible for the calls but st.brett is responsible for executing the calls - 3 picks isn't executing the calls. Favre - a fun guy to watch but also the most over rated qb in history.

#4 Here in Berkeley-on-the-Lake, the pro Favre/anti Favre debate has been raging since spring. It has generated almost as much heat in the press as Obamania.

Today's sports page pundit (Tom Oates): "OK, NOW Brett Favre should retire and begin taking those first awkward steps on the road toward reconciling with Packer Fans....he has now succeeded in disappointing fans in both the smallest and largest NFL markets in a span of 6 months...."

I hate football, so I guess I can be a little more objective than my Packer fan neighbors in this matter. Do as the baseball umpires say: "Penalize the team that caused the problem." Favre's dithering about retirement caused the problem, therefore he is the one to blame here.
