Brett Favre was reportedly traded to the New York Jets on Wednesday night. Foxsports.com reports the Jets will send a draft pick to Green Bay for the future Hall of Fame quarterback.

What do you spose the chances are they turn around and re-trade him. I can see the Vikings taking and saying we'll give you what you gave up and a little more..

Thank God the drama is over.....wait no it isnt

Mike Greenberg will be beaming tomorrow, that's for sure.

this was talked about extensively on 810 sports (kc) today. apparently the commish was VERY involved in the process, making sure this was not the case. making sure a team wasnt going to get him for 2 draft picks and turn around and sell him to the vikings for 3 draft picks. (since the packers wouldnt trade him to MN directly)

NOOOOOOOOOOO

word in kc was that if he went to the jets, herm was going to be in hot pursuit of pennington. herm always loved chad. and now...

As Dinger said... I think the Commish will step in and make sure that this doesn't happen.

I can't remember what the word was they used on ESPN last night, but there is a special rule that you can designate what a team does with a player once you trade him there.

They were pretty sure that GB would have this clause put in that he couldn't be traded to any NFC North team after he was traded the first time.

who do we drop then if it happens? it could be any of the 3, huard, brodie or thigpin

I think it is called a poison pill contract. GB can put something in the trade that if he plays more games in MN than NY that they get additional picks or cash from NY.
