Fleischer visits Packers at training camp


Just in time for the media circus that will be rolling into town when Brett Favre comes to Packers training camp, the Packers got a visit today from former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer.

It's been customary for the Packers to have guest speakers talk to the team on their scheduled off days. Fleischer's visit couldn't come at a better time as nearly every player, coach, and other personnel will be asked their opinion on the Favre situation.

According to the Green Bay Press-Gazette, "Head coach Mike McCarthy swears Fleischer was booked far in advance, but he noted, 'We'll get our money's worth.'"

Favre is supposedly on his way into town ready on a plane ready to touch ground in Green Bay Thursday evening reports the Press-Gazette.
