I can hear Frank Caliendo now in his John Madden voice..."hey now, hey now...my Brett Favre is back!"
Can you believe the circus that is going on in the NFL? It's a crazy league when the two most popular figures are Brett Favre and Michael Vick. Brett Favre is making a circus with his status in the NFL and he's brining the Vikings into the ring as well. I've read everything from he's tarnshing his legacy to the Vikings will win the Super Bowl. What's the real scoop?
The answer is...SO WHAT! People are giving Favre a hard time because he's retired, then he's unretired, retired again and finally unretired. SO WHAT if he's indecisive, so are most of us. How many times have you waivered on something important in your life? Getting married for example...some of you after many years are probably still waivering on this decision. What to eat for lunch...how often do you find yourself perplexed about what you're going to have for lunch? Vacations...often one of the hardest decisions to make.
Ok...you get my point. It's a tough decision for a professional to hang up his spikes and for Favre, SO WHAT is he keeps changing his mind. I think it's great drama to have him back and I am looking forward to Minny @ GB on 11/1/09.
However you feel about Brett Favre, one thing is clear...he sure is entertaining!

I don't think people really care that he is indecisive or has flip flopped more than MJ's skin color (is it still too early for MJ jokes?), but you can't believe anything Favre says. Not to mention he is almost 40 years old, but looks like he's almost 50. He also always have to have an "out" like his shoulder was the cause of his Jets decline and now this year its a tear in his rotator cuff.
ReplyDeleteSure he can still sling the rock, but name me one QB who could still perform at a high level at age 39-40+. I perdict that this won't end well for him or the Vikes. Chilly will be fired after this season and Favre will finally walk away from the game having proved nothing after two un-retirements.
I'm just glad I'm not a Packer fan. I can't imagine what it is like for them with your idol going to your bitter rival. Think of the reaction if John Elway went to play for the Raiders or Chiefs, or if Stevie Y went to play for the Avs, or if Derek Jeter ever goes to the Red Sox.
The Vikes were a 10-6 team last year behind the terrible play of TJack and Gus Ferrote. Sage Rosenfels probably would have led them to an 11-5 or 12-4 season and possibly a SB (oh wait this is the Vikings were talking about...ok maybe the NFC chip).
