I support this petition. Packer fans are loyal and obviously Ted Thompson is not one of us. He has made one poor decision after another, and this last one has affected not only Brett and his family, but all of the Green Bay fans. FIRE TED, WE WANT BRETT BACK
Why would the Packers not want Brett Favre back? What are they thinking? I can't believe they are treating Brett this way. I support this petition, FIRE Ted Thompson!
I support this petition. This entire situation is about 1 person's ego and becoming bigger than the organization and the nfl so Ted Thompson needs to go. Make MM the interum GM and Ron Wolfe to handle football operation until a replacement can be found. How about a little loyalty to the one of the greatest players in packer history and a living legend, this has been handled horribly from day 1. What if Denver had gotten rid of Elway before winning back to back SBs?
Ted Thompson is inept as a football manager. His distrustful communication style, ego and one-sided decision-making has done much damage to our storied franchise. Restore the respect and trust - get rid of Ted Thompson!
I support this petition. WHY WOULD THE PACKERS NOT WANT A QUARTERBACK THAT BROKE EVERY FOOTBALL RECORD POSSIBLE, THREW FOR 4200 YARDS LAST YEAR WAS RUNNER UP FOR MVP AND ALREADY HOLDS 3 MVP AWARDS. BRETT BROUGHT THE GLORY BACK TO TITLETOWN AND IF HE WANTS TO PLAY ANOTHER YEAR THEN LET HIM, HE SHOWED US LAST YEAR THAT HE CAN DO IT.
Ted Thompson has changed the whole Packer organization. He has tried to run Favre out of town since he came aboard. He has split Packer fans in half. GB needs a GM who knows how to run a well respected team. Favre should be starting this year. I know I'll support Favre where ever he plays and not the Packers until this management is gone.
Ted has failed at his main job duties of putting the best team on the field. I definitely sense that there has been deceit on the part of Thompson as well. Please replace Ted to restore the luster to the organization!
I support this petition. I also wanted to know if one has been done for Mark Murphy as well. Bring back Ron Wolf I say, hell, Mike Holmgren will be available next year. Let's give him what he always wanted minus the whole drafting concept.
I support this petition. I can no longer support the Greenbay Packer management. Why aren't fans organizing and marching in Greenbay "on mass" to protest the treatment of Brett Favre by management? Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy are an embarasment to Wisconsin and to Greenbay in particular. Shame on you both!
I support this petition. Thompson will go down in history and the biggest idiot in football. Favre was the best thing to happen to Green Bay in decades and all Thompson has done is make horrible decisions, bad draft choices and has destroyed our great reputation as the best home for football. I hope they fire the whole front office!
I support this petition. He does not have the professionalism or the Wisconsin compassion that is needed to manage our upper Midwest team. Thompson's had an agenda for a long time to push out the veterans and to have the players that he's picked run the show. How's that for fair, competitive spirit in the NFL?
I support this petition. Get rid of him! If he was a player, or any common person working, he would have already been gone for all the mistakes he has made.
I support this petition. McCarthy's (thus TT) questioning Brett's mindset & heart to play for THE PACKERS is like questioning the Pope's allegiance to God! He's understandably hurt by TT (&M&M's) not REALLY wanting him back. The heart & mindset has nothing to do with wanting to play with the GB Packers, but everything to do with playing for TT. Thus, FIRE TT!!! Is TT the ONE person MOST RESPONSIBLE for the Packers unparalleled RETURN TO GREATNESS since 1992??? Hell NO! BRETT FAVRE DID & HE STARTED EVERY GAME (even after father's death) & PLAYED 100% with A PASSION, TALENT, SUCCESS & FUN combination THAT NEVER HAS BEEN OR WILL BE EQUALLED by a QB in the NFL!!! Yea,he flip-flopped & struggled with the decision. Understandable for someone of his UNIQUE talent, succes & love for playing the game, especially after amazing year last year. ALL the FORMER great QB's, ETC., understand Brett's difficulty retiring Brett. WHAT MADE HIM THE MOST EXCITING & FUN PLAYER IN THE NFL for 16 years (not to mention making his TEAM quite successful AGAIN), is EXACTLY WHAT MAKES IT SO HARD FOR HIM TO RETIRE. He EARNED LIFETIME RESPECT from ALL PACKERS, but TT, MM & MM have NOT GIVEN IT TO HIM. HE WANTS TO PLAY FOR THE GBP, but NOT TT!!! FIRE TT, NOT YOUR MOST SIGNIFICANT PACKER SINCE LOMBARDI ERA!
I support this petition. FIRE TED THOMPSON THAT JERK. He's the man who's driving poor Brett Out Of Green Bay. Kick his $@#%# a*s 1000000 miles from here. Brett Please STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.
I support this petition. Fire all 3 of them Murphy Thompson and McCarthy. McCarthy is just a puppet and someone else is workng his mouth. He couldn't even keep his story straight in the press conference yesterday. Anyone who has seen the video of Brett arriving on Sunday night saw a man who was thrilled to be back in Green Bay. Then all of a sudden on Monday doesn't have the mindset to be in Green Bay. I hope he goes to the Bucs I am a native Floridian and will cheer for them when they have a good season.
Packer: 4-12
Ted has been the puppet master behind all this debacle and deserves to be searching for a new team as well. He has orchestrated this disaster by damaging the trust between Brett and the Packers front office to the point now Brett cannot move past the actions over the past 2 months leaving Coach McCarthy no option but to move ahead with Rodgers.
He should pay for the damage to not only the team this year, the chaos to the fans and Brett, but the embarrassment he has brought to the entire Packer organization and being viewed as a comedy of errors.
This is no way to treat a future hall of famer who is still one of the best or the shareholders of the team.
I support this petition. His attitude and stance basically forced Brett Favre out of town. Brett has his Second best season ever last year, including the 3 League MVP years, why would you not want him as your starting QB. Get us a GM that knows what he is doing!
I support this petition. Brett has hinted at retiring for the last three years. Thompson hired Jan 2005, McCarthy hired Jan 2006. Do you see any correlation here?
I support this petition. His management of the Favre issue has been extremely poor. This is a win now league. Bottom line, lose the ego TT, bring back the best quarterback for this year or find a new job.
The man just looks like an egotistical idiot. It is all a power play he wants to prove he has more power. Don't buy Packers stuff or Tickets. Lets show him who has the power.

"bet the atlanta falcons wish they never traded b.f.- guess what-TT has made us the new falcons. this will go down as the biggest bonehead move in nfl history!
I support this petition. NOT
How about supporting the team, which is more than one person. How many games were won by players other that the formerly great player who thinks he is bigger than the team and who only orchested this for his own interests? Quite a few. Oh yeah, lets fire the GM after a 13-3 season. How about supporting the Pack now people instead of just being an enabler for whatever #4 wants. Wanting to play in the NFC North to play the Packers twice a year? Real team loyalty. As a Pack fan, here's to hoping Favre has another 5 pick day if he plays against them, or have you all forgotten those.
I support this petition. Wholeheartedly. I will be a Brett Favre fan long after the Packers have lost with Ted Thompson's handpicked team. He (Ted) has neglected Brett's requests in the past (incidentally the best decisions for the team) including, but not limited to, the Randy Moss episode and Mike Wahl. It's very, very sad that I have to feel like this. I have been a Packer fan since I can remember (the late 70's?). I have been a Favre fan since Magic got hut. The two have been synonymous for so long. It's sad that because of Ted Thompson the two have to be torn apart. It's sad that I have to make a decision whether I'm going to root for the Packers or for the Jets/Buccaneers/Vikings. Even if Brett isn't playing for one of those teams, I will still feel a little hole in my heart when watching the Packers win or loose. I try to take my heart out of it and understand the business aspect. I can't. As subjectively as I can think I can't help but believe the Packers' organization is being hardheaded, and I regrettably hope it hurts them in the end. I'm 34 years old, and finally going to my first Packer game this year with my Dad. I'm just not even that excited about it. It's a shame.
