So, after several Minnesota Vikings teammates traveled down to Mississippi to get an answer from Brett on whether or not he was going to return (after all, they are only a few weeks away from the season opener against the New Orleans Saints, the team that beat the Vikings in the NFC Championship game and the reigning Super Bowl champs), it seems they got a big 'ole "Let's do it!"
The fact that Brett took THIS long to make a somewhat inevitable decision, kinda rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's the fact that this team has been wondering who their QB would be come the start of the season. I just don't like the idea of making teammates wait, wonder, and worry.
On the other hand, I know that Brett LOVES this game, and I truly admire and applaud his passion. As a serious football fan, I have to admit, I love watching the guy play--he's phenomenal.
We're still awaiting an official statement...so, I guess the drama isn't over just yet.

Ugh, Brett Favre sucks. Hall of Fame quarterback, but you just cringe and wait for him to implode each year now, and his Pollyanna act in the off-season is beyond annoying.
ReplyDeleteI have to say his act of retiring and then coming back (Ridger Clemens anyone?) is annoying and old! If you want to play, just say so and play. Or else go home, become a commentator and let your team move on!
