The problem is, if Favre starts, Rodgers Leaves and GB wasted a 1st round pick without even seeing what they got. So it's better to let Favre--a proven quarterback who, despite his age is unquestionably one of the best quarterbacks today--play for another team? IMO, GB will be much more haunted by the question of what would have happened if they let Favre play than what kind of player Rodgers ...

Let's say someone gets diagnosed with adult ADD after undergrad. Would this be worth mentioning in a PS/addendum? I'm pretty sure it's not technically considered a specific learning disability, but I think this might help explain a less than perfect GPA. Thoughts?

Transferring from a T4: Being in the top 1% should get you into most T2 schools, and if you have some nice soft factors, you might be able to reach into Tier 1. Iowa or F...
