Traditionally, the Packers are right up there with the Cowboys and Seahawks as my most hated rival. Cowboys for obvious reasons, and Seahawks because I grew up in Vancouver and for the last several years they have been a Niner rival.
Even though the Cowboys have not been a huge rival since the mid 90's I hate them with every fibre of my being, but I am finding that I kinda cheer for the Packers abit now. Aaron Rodgers was on Rome yesterday and I like the guy.
Obviously I want the Niners to win the Superbowl every season, but this year if by some miracle we get knocked out, I really want Aaron Rodgers and the Packers to kill the Vikings on their way to a Superbowl.
I guess my point is I hate Favruh so much that my best scenario would be him losing to GB, then watching his old team win the Superbowl. I don't wish injury or anything like that on him, just emotional pain!
Anyone else like that?

With Favruh in Minny, do you kinda root for the Packers now?

No, why would I root for the Packers? I don't root for the Bucs or Dolphins or any other team I don't give a s**t about.

Why root for them? Because a vote for the Packers is a vote AGAINST Favruh. That was the point. I am not getting an Aaron Rodgers poster or anything, my allegiance is and will always be with the Niners, but I can still enjoy other teams. I like watching the Steelers too. They're good and Roethlisberger is fun to watch.

I see your point. I like watching other teams too, and occasionally root for them.
There are just some teams that I don't care about at all, and the Packers fall into that group now that Favre is gone.

No, don't care. It's not like he did his grandstanding against my team. Personally I do hope he sticks it to them. their fans might as well be as pissed as me for having a losing team. In fact, I hope every team gets screwed in some way.

I find I always hate the teams that are playing real well; I always like rooting for the underdog. So I definitely hate the Vikes more than the Pack.

My hatred follows Favre wherever he goes. I still dont like the Packers but I do like a lot of their players. They dont seem to have too many A-holes there. They all seem to be team players.

yes a little. Hard to admit but it is true. I want to see the Packers eliminate the Vikings out of the post season
