I'm reminded of when Favre said that "true Packers fans would understand" why he went to Minnesota.

I can only guess, as a Bears fan, but I think Packers fans are accustomed to a different bond with their team than fans of other NFL teams. I don't think that any other fan base is quite as invested in their team - figuratively and literally. So for their hero to waffle about whether or not he wanted to play there, to be so indecisive about playing when they still wanted him... I don't think Green Bay Fan can relate to that.
