I'm going to attempt to take on the Brett Favre situation. When i first started hearing about him wanting to come back and that the Green Bay Packers weren't going to grant him release, i kinda thought man that sucks for Favre. But after reading the Packers press release, and hearing Favre's side of the story, on Greta van Sustren i have come to the conclusion that Brett Favre should show up to training camp, and he should play his heart out. Cause here is the way i look at it, Favre has the chance to make the Packers look stupid without it coming back on his legacy. The Packers have said they are committed to Aaron Rodgers starting, so Favre should come into mini-camp and just simply show him up. He still has what it takes to compete at a NFL level, come on the guy had a 66 percent completion percentage last year with 4100 yards and 28 TD's, the man can still play. So he should simply go into Packers mini-camp and show up everyone there, there would be such a media circus about his ability to start games and not hold the clipboard and wear the head set, that the Packers would be stupid not to do something that would have to go Favre's way in the means that they may release him from mini-camp, or heck even trade him, or make him starting quarterback, but i think that's not likely but possible. Brett Favre has the Green Bay Packers in a precarious situation, if Favre plays it smart and makes good decisions, he can come out on top and make the best of a messed up situation.
I also think Brett came into the whole deal not wanting this to happen in a sense, i think Green Bay thought they had Brett by the Groin, in the sense that the media coverage would go there way, obviously not. The whole Greta interview was obviously set-up as far as the questions go to play to Brett's feelings, which is smart to do it makes Brett a media darling, and God knows if you got the media on your side, you have a good chance at winning the fight. I'm really curious to see how things play out from here with Brett Favre, cause the man is at least the 3rd best QB of all-time if not 1st or 2nd. I really dont want to see his leagacy on the line, and to a extent i really dont think that it is. So with that said have a good one people.
