Green Bay general manager Ted Thompson, speaking at the NFL meetings in West Palm Beach, Fla., said he believes the state of Wisconsin is recovering from the hangover created by Brett Favre's sudden retirement, which he floored Packers Nation with earlier this month.

"We have the greatest fans I've ever been around," Thompson said Monday. "They will stick with the Packers. Yes, it is going to be strange for them not to see No. 4 there anymore, but we are all going to get through it."

Thompson, whose team has been assembled together in the still chilly Green Bay for the past two weeks for offseason conditioning, said he believes the team will show the fans that the post-Favre life will be manageable.

"It'll be up to everyone, not just Aaron Rodgers," Thomson said. "This team will be fine. We will move on together."
