Bob Harlan Ted Quotations

(Favre) hasn't told me personally, and I had lunch with Mike and Ted earlier (Friday), and he hadn't told them anything, either, as of noon, anyway.

A lot of it is strictly media speculation. There are all kinds of names thrown out there. Ted (Thompson, Packers' general manager) has not given away any names whatsoever. He's just started the search. It's got a long way to go.

There's been a great feeling around the building. This is real good news that everybody's been hoping for. We needed something like this. I think Ted and Mike needed something like this.

Everybody's asking me if he said this would be his last year. Ted did not say anything about that. He just said he's coming back. Whether this is it or not, I have no idea. I think Ted is glad that we got this settled. Everybody is glad it's settled.

I'm thrilled its over. I can't tell you how many fans from around the country kept asking me if Ted and Mike wanted to start over with their own quarterback. I kept telling them that was not the case. We have a young team, and his experience and leadership and enthusiasm for the game are huge for us. So I'm delighted.
