Yoyo Brett Favre and his re-re-return to football...now last shot at glory corrupted? |
The Read and React To Favre Comeback: There's a bunch of haters over at Profootballtalk.com, but their feedback on the latest story following the press conference that introduced Favre as a Viking is pretty hilarious to read. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/08/18/chilly-to-favre-now-or-never/ Now, the reasons Favre decided to do an about-about-about face on his un-unretirement might seem vague and easy to second-guess. I think he planned to play all along and just wanted everyone to go away for awhile so he could focus on this return in peace. I don't think he really cares who it hurts or affects that he didn't put his time in at the training camps. He knows what he can do and what he can offer. And at this point in his career, he has earned the right to get ready to play when he's ready. And the Vikings have the right to wait until he's ready, even if it affects certain players. This is a business. These are men who make millions of dollars. i will not cry any tears for anyone kicked to the curb over this decision, because there aren't any players on this team that measure up to the level of the team's new No. 4. Favre may fail. The Vikings may wind up looking silly. That's their prerogative and I'm sure when all the money is counted, fans will have shown their appreciation for this one last push for a Super Bowl. I'll be watching those jersey sales, too. Gobble up that merchandise. It's super bowl while you go bust! ...and already it begins... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/08/18/favre-and-vikings-translates-to-... |
