Favre comeback rumors
So there were briefly some rumors about a Brett Favre comeback. Believe it or not, old Bus Cook was thrown out there as part of the story. The claim is that Cook has been trying to work out a trade for the retired QB. If this is true, it seems to be poorly thought out.…

Packers Running Into 2008 Season
Run-down feeling McCarthy wants to beef up Packers’ ground game So McCarthy thinks the Packers need to improve their ground game. I’d agree. If you want to look at just one big reason the rushing attack didn’t really get going in 2007, look at the performances in 2007: Week 1 vs Philly: 17 carries - 46…
