*sigh* I've been over this issue too many times to count. I had a tear roll down my cheek with his first retirement speech here. He then wanted to come back. I was stoked. However, I wanted him to COMPETE with #12 for the starting job, but guess what? Favre was too much of a diva. How DARE anyone ask him to COMPETE when he walked away from a team he wanted to come back to....
I supported him when he went to NY, (even though I didn't like him going elsewhere after he retired) because my personality wouldn't want to stop playing the game either. I understood. We moved on however. I watched his less than stellar season, and then...everything fell apart. There was inside info before he went to the Jets that he wanted to go to one of the North teams to stick it to Teddy, and guess what? It was TRUE! Ended up going to MIN after only one year in New York, and that was only because of trade stipulations implemented by us. He succeeded in a purple uniform for one single year. Good for him. Except, he's been overpaid for the last couple years he's been in football, and he's been in jeaopardy for showing off his penis via text because, well...he can. He's Brett Favre. Well um, no he can't.
The man started out the vast love of GB. People named their kids "Brett" and probably would have given up a lung if he was in dire need. As time progressed. he's shown what a true drama queen he is. Put DeAnna, and his family through hell, put the National Football through hell, made the Vikings come out to get him from Mississippi, tarnished his Hall of Fame career, and quite possibly screwed himself out of the HOF via the inappropriate sext messages/photos. All because he's too ****ing STUPID, greedy, and arrogant to hang them up. To compete. to sit on the bench, and support his team. Whatever the case may be, Favre is a mega asshole. And you're talking to a guy who was 110% behind him even when he went to Gang Green. Going to the Vikings made me do a 180. The endless pour of news during those years was srelentless, and none of it put Favre in a beautiful neon light, know what I mean?
