Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

Yeah, I'm a little bummed, but the guy is like 39 or something, so it's definitely not a tragedy or anything. At least theres some closure while free agency is still early. Now Packers' future is with Aaron "Glass Joe" Rodgers.

Just surfing the net and heard about Favre, then thought about Paul. Great career and great QB. I'm dealing with my Broncos thinking of letting Jason Elam walk. He was the only one that made any of the games exciting last year, even though he is just a kicker.

12 chipups? What is a chipup? If you meant chin ups then that's pretty good. I'm sure I could only do like 7 of them.

my wife and i cried a little when we heard brett was leaving, but we understood. good to see you're back running.

From Paul Petersen on Tue, Mar 04, 2008 at 20:05:33

Don't mess with me, Behunin!

From Superfly on Tue, Mar 04, 2008 at 20:13:57

So can you really do 12 chinups? If so 3,000 commando points to you!

From Paul Petersen on Tue, Mar 04, 2008 at 20:19:36

Chinups are easy when you weigh as little as I do. 15 is my PR from last year.
