I don’t understand how so many people flipped on Favre so fast. When he retired he I knew he would change his mind when August came around. I was wrong. It happened in July.
There is a lot that we don’t know that has happened behind the scenes but they almost made it to the Super Bowl with him. He isn’t washed up. I wanted them to let him go somewhere else where he had a chance but then the amazing 2007 season happened.
I find it stupid the way the Packers have handled it and I do feel bad for Rodgers but Brett got them back into contention last year. Sure they picked up quarterbacks in the draft but so what? Favre changed his mind. Use him or trade him. You can’t come out and say he is going to be a back up to Rodgers without him even playing. This is the country where achievement is rewarded.
Of course if they don’t give Brett the starter position I won’t believe it was honestly decided. It isn’t a great spot for any of them to be in but it is here so deal with it. Give the winning quarterback the job and get on with life.
He is not Cher. He is Michael Jordan and he wants to play. Idiots.
