I have no idea. I just saw it on TV myself. Whatever he's decided, he hasn't told us.
Bob Harlan -
Those men established and raised this franchise to new heights.

As long as you have the chairman (title) and you're the CEO, you're still in charge of the organization, ... I'll do that for the next year and a half and then when I go to emeritus (status), John gets the president title.
Bob Harlan -
Our current pricing is in the middle range of the league and that's where we like to be.
Bob Harlan -
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.
Bob Harlan -
I think it sent a huge message to every free agent and particularly the African-Americans. I think it opened a lot of doors for us.
Bob Harlan -
He was the perfect guy for the times. He stabilized this league and he kept labor peace and he kept the sport No. 1.
Bob Harlan -
If it's a tight division race, there could be some interesting games.

I think the fact they were scheduling without knowing if Brett Favre is going to be back, and they still gave us three national games, shows you the Green Bay Packers are still an appealing draw. The ratings were good last year even when we weren't playing well. I think it speaks well for us (considering) where we are. I think it's still a popular franchise and we still get ratings.
Bob Harlan -
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.
Bob Harlan -
He was very honored. I told him to look up there (the facade of Lambeau Field) and picture his name with the other numbers. He knew how special this was.
Bob Harlan -
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.
Bob Harlan -
Continuation of the salary cap was our No. 1 goal. Without it, the long-term viability of the Packers would be in doubt.
Bob Harlan -
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.

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.
Bob Harlan -
This is something we wanted to do. We want them to take the time to see the history and tradition of the franchise.
Bob Harlan -
That's what changed the football fortunes of this franchise. It was huge, ... He sent a message to the rest of the NFL that Green Bay was a great place to play.
Bob Harlan -
I always said the calendar was working in our favor. If he was going to (retire), he would have told us in January.
Bob Harlan -
I don't think his legacy will ever shrink.
Bob Harlan -
Lombardi's on a high pedestal and deserves to be.
Bob Harlan
-
You have to face reality, and coming off 4-12, you're not going to be the national draw you were previously. But for 13 years, we were a pretty good draw.
Bob Harlan -
I want to answer their request. We listen to them. They are the owners. I also want them to know we appreciate the passion they have for this franchise.
