Yoyo Brett Favre and his re-re-return to football...now last shot at glory corrupted? |
When I turn on my TV set, I want to be entertained. Favre has done that. I don't buy what Thompson and the Packers are selling. And there might be half truths on both sides. But, I don't feel Favre should be treated this way. Not because of what it will do to him, but what it will do to us, the fans and this city. Aren't the Packers doing a great disservice to the rest of us by letting all this dirty laundry get aired in the media? All the speculation and innuedo that's left out there leaves a sour taste in my mouth. And if come September, I turn on that set and have to watch someone else play at that position when a future hall of famer was pushed out of the picture, I don't know how my heart can be in it. I don't care if it's a business and I don't care about the winning. We'd do fine with Favre at the helm and he'll make us smile doing what he does so well. He was cajoled into early retirement. Thompson has been spinning this thing and he's made a mess of it. Time to clean it up and spare what legacy he, the GM, may have left. Don't you think he owes it to the fans? They are the real victims here. |
