Strung Out
...not welcome Favre back with open and willing arms.
2007 highlights;
Pro bowl, All pro, 4155 yards, 28 tds, 15 ints, 95.7 qb rating, won their division, destroyed the Seahawks in round 1, took the eventual champ Giants into OT.
I understand the argument against his indecision and how it may or may not affect team mates and the organization, but, guess what? Coaches get paid more than assistants, owners get better seats than fans, starters get more slack than back ups. The world ain't fair. Fairness is not the point nor purpose of excelling.
So Brett's an air head. BFD. He the only superstar in all of the NFL or sports or entertainment as a whole that is kinda goofy, a little spoiled, inconsistent?
Brett made as many hi or low lights last year as ever including some plays that will be in NFL super highlight films forever.
He played yet another full season last year.
I mean, how much more do you need?
He is clearly not YA Tittle hanging on well past the 'use by' date. He is not Montana with Steve Young holding a clipboard behind him. He's not Marino knowing the team as a whole is simply outclassed. He's not Elway trying for 3 in a row. The Packers are good and young and will very likely NOT do better this year with Aaron Rogers than they would with Favre.
I mean, bring Favre in and let him compete for the job. If Rogers is better, so be it, but for crying out loud, don't tell Brett Favre you can come be a back up. THAT would be a disruption, a team full of guys perhaps annoyed by the Brett retirement follies, but more annoyed that the better QB is holding a clip board. You wanna be Rogers, given the job and have a legend still in his prime standing there?
They can't get rid of him. Imagine Brett Favre coming to Lambeau and beating the Packers. The team and fans could not get more dispirited.
I just see no other way for the Packers to do anything but welcome him to camp with open arms and tell him he's still gotta do like everyone else and earn the job.
