    Let me start off by saying that the following is just my personal opinion; I mean no disrespect to any Favre fans out there. With that being said...

    I've always been indifferent about Favre as a Packer; thought he made as many spectacular passes as he did idiotic bonehead ones. Never understood why Madden kept ballwashin' the dude throughout his career. Anyway, he really started getting under my skin when he kept repeating the "should I retire or should I stay" crap with the Packers. When they finally had enough of his nonsense, the diva goes to NY. At this point he's just a jerk in my book until he commits the ultimate insult to the fans that payed his salary for many years and were all for naming a street after him: he became a Viking. What a piece of human garbage this guy is.
    I don't give a rat's *** about his stupid record. I grew up watching tough Quarterbacks. Guys like Staubach who my friends and I nicknamed Concussion Boy from all the ones he suffered in his career, yet he always came back. I remember one game against the Redskins, where after a Quarterback sneak for a touchdown he walked back to the sideline with his pinky danglin' with just his skin keeping it attached to his hand. When that idiot Favre can come back from a Joe Theisman or Napoleon Kaufman injury and play the next week, then we can talk. I'm not saying that playing that many games isn't an amazing achievement, but the dumb luck that kept him from avoiding major injuries has a lot to do with it.
    This guy could have retired as a god in Green Bay, but instead he'll be remembered for:
    • betraying the Packer Fans
    • embarrassing his family by being the subject of a sex scandal
    • having his "junk-mail" be an internet and latenight joke
    • getting hit in the balls with a football on youtube
    • being the ultimate NFL Diva
    • ending his career on the sidelines, with a bad record, a fired coach, a deported receiver and an imploded stadium


    And by the way, 20 m for a guy like that doesn't mean that much or last that long, but having your legacy forever tarnished does.
    You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.

      J.B., pretty well spot on..

      Living in Milwaukee here, my wife was always/still is a huge Packer fan and loves both Donald Driver and Aaron Rogers. Me..? I like football in general, and watch the games with her because she likes it, but I'm not that big a fan.

      Yes, he should have retired and scooped up all the corporate speaking engagements, etc a few years back. What kept him in..? Ego and 'love of the game', unfortunately.

      Not like I really care, but WHY did he stop at 297 consecutive starts..? He could have walked in for a few plays then feign a shoulder injury just to make 300.

      His biggest challenge now is to realize that.. no one really cares about Brett Favre anymore.
