			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, so Favre played the best throwing half since the game after his father died. I was almost tempted to turn off the TV after the first half because I thought that this game was in the bag. What happened??</p>
<p>After Favre threw one of the most incredible passing halves of the season, why would the Packers try to  run the ball in the second half. The passing game was virtually non-existent in the second half. But most of all, the Packers handed the game to the Bears with turnovers and penalties. Unbelievable! Interceptions, fumbles, penalties &#8211; Come on, Guys!!</p>
<p>Hey!! these are my boys! I am proud to be a cheesehead! I will learn, however, not to trash talk opposing teams to friends too much. I sent my friend, Mat, who is from Chicago and a faithful Bear&#8217;s fan, a number of text messages taunting him the week before the game. As the clock was ticking down at the end of the game and the score was 27-20, all those taunts were running through my head returning the favor. I humbled myself immediately and made it right after the game. He didn&#8217;t abuse me too bad. <img src='http://rickyblaha.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>This is not the end of the road. Favre is still the greatest QB &#8211; ever!!! (not up for controversy) . He is still breaking records &#8211; even if the records may be the most interceptions thrown. He alone holds the record for the most touchdown passes thrown in a career. The Packers are still a top rated team.</p>
<p>Go Packers!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After long time of deciding whether or not Brett Favre would retire or return to the <a href="http://www.packers.com/" title="Packers.com" target="_blank">Packers</a> to play another season, the decision was finally made. Brett Favre is back.</p>
<p><a href="http://rickyblaha.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/favre-and-chargers-record-breaking-td.gif" target="_blank" title="Favre’s record tying touchdown pass celebration"><img src="http://rickyblaha.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/favre-and-chargers-record-breaking-td.gif" title="Favre’s record tying touchdown pass celebration" alt="Favre’s record tying touchdown pass celebration" align="right" height="301" width="233" /></a></p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.packers.com/" title="packers.com" target="_blank">Green Bay Packers</a> are three games into there season now and they still remain undefeated. Although Brett Favre was criticized by the commentators last season for being to too old to continue to play to the game, it seems that their tone has changed. They are now saying that he is now playing better than he has in the last four or five years and that he still has the best throwing arm in the league. Today, in the Packers third win of the season against San Diego, Favre threw his 420th touch down pass to tie the all-time NFL record held by Dan Marino.</p>
<p>I found it quite amusing to watch Dan Marino comment on Brett&#8217;s tying pass from the studio. I would have loved to know what was really going through his head.</p>
<p>Although the Packers gave up their lead to San Diego right before halftime, they fought back to  a <a href="http://www.packers.com/news/stories/2007/09/23/5/" title="the official Packer article " target="_blank">31-24 point win over the Chargers</a>. Every sports commentator that I heard prior to the game predicted a Charger win over the Packers. That just goes to show you that you that Green Bay is more than a team that can be predicted &#8211; they are the Packers!!!!</p>
